Is there a way to disable Anti-aliased fonts completely?

Sure. In .fonts.conf:

<match target="font">
<edit name="antialias" mode="assign"><bool>false</bool></edit>
</match>

(And anyone who thinks this is a sane way to expose configuration state to
users should see a psychologist *fast*.)

In my KDE "fonts" control panel, there is a "turn off antialias altogether" item.
