Why would you need hierarchical command and controleformalized power structures (the thing anarchist oppose) for society?
Rules and common understanding naturally emerge when humans live together. You don't need a king/chief/boss/god for that.
You aren't anarchistic if you're organized, that's kind of the point.
That is simply not true. Anarchism opposes institutionalized hierarchies of command and control. There are anti-organisational cnrrents in anarchy but the vast majority of anarchists don't oppose organization. Also, thereshave been too many anarchist organisations in history to count.
