If there isn’t a state, then what happens when the capitalists attack? Who’s gonna organize a defense? You think everyone’s just going to pick up guns and magically form an invincible anarcho-army?
Yes, but that will take time. Without a state, the USSR and China could never have done what they did. A loose net of communes just wouldn’t work when they were under constant western pressure and sabotage. No offense, but the only “resistance” anarchists have ever put on was a few angry marches and some molotovs. It was still the evil tankie statist army that crushed fascism in WW2.

What you wrote earlier was an accurate summary, they just misread (I hope).
I misread indeed, sorry. I’m such an idiot!
Don’t be too hard on yourself. The thread is full of such a variety of toxic takes that it’s understandable for your eyes to glaze over a little.

I think you’re right, lol. I have no idea what we were arguing over now.
