I'm not sure I understand the distinction.
Anarchists don't want to replace a group of institutionalized and unaccountable thugs that threatens the community with anything because communities never needed a group of institutionalized and unaccountable thugs whose sole purpose is to threaten communities. So no replacement is required - what they want is the addition of community defense because that is something our communities have never had.
In fact, the first order of business for any form of community defense in our society is to protect the community from said group of institutionalized and unaccountable thugs.
Does that make it easier to understand?
Did you actually downvote me for saying that I wasn't sure what you meant by what you said, or was that someone else?
Lol!
No... that wasn't me. I have a gang of angry liberals following me around and downvoting everything I say - if you're not appropriately hostile towards me, you get a downvote, too.
