It’s the truth

Well I'll admit it's not a wonderful example

And in an ideal world yeah it would work wonderfully if noone came to burn your house down. The key point that you've so far missed is that is exactly what a government is supposed to survive.

Bourgeoisie won't magically disappear after a revolution. If your anarchist commune is too weak and divided to survive anything then that's game over.

You can talk for hours about how liberating it would be to work at factory coops and not pay taxes, but at the end of the day it doesn't matter if an imperialist power, or internal opposition, can easily overthrow it.

Fundamentally anarchism can't exist longterm as it can't defend it's existence. States are necessary in my examples because, yes they're oppressive and all that, but they also survive imperialism. Not ideal, but reformavle if guided by a communist party.

You can whinge and moan all day about how unfair it is, but that's reality
