I think it's disingenuous to categorize the parties as "pro-" and "anti-" state, when the "anti-state" parties generally contain all the nationalists, supporters of the police state, and those who are willing to increase state military expenditures (and at least in the US's case, increasing government subsidies for their own constituents).
It's pretty clear that "anti-state" in this context actually means opposition exclusively to policies that help the poor and hinder exploitation by the rich.
