Anarchy is predicated on the complete lack of general laws. However, humans are naturally hierarchical, so how can anarchy be conducive to human nature? It really seems like it's a complete pipe dream based around an autistic understanding of human nature.

Human beings will always seek some kind of social structure, anarchy is anti-human.

At the very least, a codified system of laws establishes some kind of consistency and transparency. Simply allowing the social order to rule is arbitrary and thus less fair.

naive idealists call it anarchy, realists call it power vacuum, and it never lasts long before someone shows up to claim that power for himself - if it's just one party, anarchy simply ends as the new ruling party imposes its own hierarchy on society. if it's multiple rival parties, you instead get a civil war where multiple factions fight for power, until the victorious faction manages to impose its own hierarchy by force. either way, anarchy ends quickly.

Anarchy is more of an implicit imposition when centralized power fails. I cannot understand any group in history that desires anarchy other than that they want power and control for themselves, or the ability to be a degenerate and get away with it.

Anarchy is a symptom of bad governance, not a system in and of itself and I think this is the distinction so-called anarchist supporters fail to make. Anarchy serves no real purpose in society other than to destabilize what is already there, and it's a stepping stone to whatever power is next.

I agree with the general conclusion but your post is autistic and silly. Anarchy isn't against all kinds of social structures (everything has some sort of structure, that wouldn't be possible even in theory), and being hierarchical doesn't contradict a lack of laws. An anarchist hierarchy could just mean that older and more experienced individuals of a group in free association are given more weight in the process of communal decision making.

Honestly it's kind of scary that the fine line between complete anarchy and civilization is writing things down, and even then that's sketchy

This is not true at all. Don't even know how you got that idea.

I do my darnedest
 
Every anarchist meet-up and subreddit is an absolute sausage-fest so I can see it.

What does any of this mean

It doesn't mean anything

It's based on a simplistic and fake and gay understanding of human nature just like communism

Why should old farts have more power than I, I don't consent oops now you gotta have a not anarchic power structure to deal with my refusal to voluntarily comply

Anarchy is utopian communist nonsense

Anarchists don't like being reminded that the claimed utopian end state of communism is literally the same as the claimed utopian end state of anarchy

Anarchy isn't even communist or capitalist.
One reason i hate all the anarcho-communist and anarcho-capitalism shit is basically destroy the pure escence of true freedom (or at least, some fucking gov or corp telling us how to live).
At this point, and i like i said before; people don't gonna embrace an actual change. Either lazyness or fearness, humanity in general is all about comfort.
I prefer putting that in my novels because they're in a fantasy setting. Lmao.

Debate between ancom and ancap is just a debate on human nature itself and how would people behave with government removed.

Anarchy bros have the same agency as the people in r/antiwork. Their thinking comes down to wanting free stuff, having authority or parental issues stemming from childhood or a general mentality of egotism.
