I say try both, enough states to try, cooperate and well see which is better. People died for worst experiments. Also anything more left is better than the current system.
This seams contradictory. Isn’t communism also supposed to be stateless?
Edit: Oh nvm you mean the socialist transition.
Communism is stateless, but it looks a bit different to how anarchists mean the term. Marxists are more for collectivization of production and distribution, while anarchists are generally more for communalization.
A type of commune for all. One that best reflects our values. Not everyone’s community will look and function the same. Why would we want that? We are not the same person.
There will likely be local distinctions in communism, but trying to focus on communalism where every community is its own local thing and not a part of a much bigger wholr results in contradictory interests. The soviets found this out early on in practice, early factory councils would focus on themselves, so they were restructured into a more interconnected system.
idea: we do the whole leftist infighting thing after we win against the common enemy, deal?
But the state is my enemy.
the state as an idea is bad yes i agree. but there are better and worse states, and if i have to live in a state because us anarchists can’t organsie well enough to create a state-less society, then i’d rather live in a better state rather than a bad one

Nation states, power, fiat currencies, religions, borders constitutions and laws are just games we play in our heads. A tally stick doesn’t work anymore as a measure of value. Kings are dethroned. Old ideas are replaced with new ones (for better or worse)
We make these thoughts in our heads real, but they dont exist unless we make it so. We actually could wish this all away as though a spell was cast. Magic as you say.
People are to busy trying to make life happen or are to invested in their favorite flavor of boot polish to think of a new way to live our lives unfortunately.
Fine by me. I got a vasectomy. I didn’t force a kid to play y’alls reindeer games. Couldn’t care less. Back to playing the world’s smallest violin in the world’s tiniest box.
Pixel limit. OP hit it
Everybody loves their imaginary friends like “states” and “money” and “gods.”
I wish they could keep it all to themselves.
The Spanish socialist revolution would like to disagree with communists I think
Not at all. The Spanish revolutionaries were communists. Some in the communist party, but even the Spanish anarchists called what they fought for “libertarian communism”.
