I tend to be anti-authoritarian myself and constantly have to remind myself that societies folkways, mores (and laws, regulations, etc) have a purpose other than to inconvenience me. Fortunately I've learned to drive more slowly and am not constrained by an HOA.
On some theoretical level the HOA contracts / rules are voluntarily entered into. So even the most hard-core libertarians (or exactly those!) should be into them.
Of course, in practice you often enter a HOA as the lesser of multiple evils.
