Supporter of political anarchism

A person who believes that there should be no government and that people should live in free groups without rulers.

Tipar de utilizare: [someone] is an anarchist
Greșeală frecventă:
Learners often confuse "anarchist" (the person) with "anarchy" (the condition of no government or disorder) and "anarchism" (the political philosophy). Another common mistake is thinking that an anarchist is simply a violent person, when the core meaning is someone who believes in a specific anti-state political theory, which can be non-violent.

Person who dislikes rules and order

A person who does not respect rules or leaders and likes to do things in a wild or chaotic way.

Greșeală frecventă:
Learners may think this informal use always means the person is part of an anarchist political movement. In many everyday contexts, especially with humor or exaggeration, "anarchist" just means someone who hates rules or causes chaos, not that they follow a detailed political theory.
Sinonime
rebel (Someone who resists control or rules; does not always suggest as much love of chaos as "anarchist" in this loose sense.) | troublemaker (Focuses on causing problems or conflict, not necessarily on rejecting all rules or authority.)
Antonime
conformist (Someone who willingly follows social rules and norms, opposite of a person who rejects them.) | rule follower (Informal term for someone who obeys rules and avoids disorder.)
