    I find this video by Andrewism to be a good introduction to how anarchy can be organized.

    This article focuses more on defending an anarchist society from an external military threat, but has relevant discussion of how to defend the social structures more specifically as well.

    The question of how to deal with power hungry people is fundamentally the same question as how do you prevent the establishment of hierarchy in the first place. That is essentially the foundational question of anarchist political theory, so any writing on anarchism is relevant to this.

      Okay so nice video, but again I failed to find any info about how to handle egomaniacs & power hungry people.

      But it made me think, I might have a better way to make you see what I mean. How would you integrate someone like me? Force me? Ban me (like that communist sub)? “Make me” understand?

      That’s IMO the biggest problem with those types of ah ways to live.

      So thanks again but still absolutely not convinced it’s viable. I will continue looking, because capitalism isn’t the future we want and democracy can be better.
