I think the point he's making is that anarchism is one big power vacuum and those are usually filled with warlords and power brokers. Anarchism can still exist within a state such as Christiania in Denmark and from what I've heard it works pretty well.

It does seem like a power vacuum if you are fully convinced that power needs to be centralized.

I am reminding the thread that the absence of distributed power is chaos, not anarchism.

Anarchism is anything BUT a power vacuum. All the power is carefully doled out via negotiation and in no way lacking.

Strong propaganda is devoted to supporting your presumption that power only exists when concentrated, so it does feel natural and common sense to say that.

Is state enforced anarchism really anarchist?
