They define anarchy differently from the common definition. Anarchists believe in creating community organizations to serve the needs of society, but they refrain from calling it a state because they believe a state requires a monopoly on the acceptable use of violence.

They don't think that we should just dissolve society and let everyone fend for themselves to eliminate class, unless they're an edgy teenager.

This is very well put. Thank you! I feel this way as well.

Everyone wants to immediately dogpile and go "OkAy SmArT gUy/GaL HoW wOuLd ThAt SoLvE eVeRyThiNg iMmEDiAtELy ToMmOrRoW huuuh?"

(As if what we've got now was just hatched up by some folks in its current form and implemented overnight lol)

I find myself an anarchist, but I'm also rational in seeing it more as an ideal to strive toward, rather than a concrete policy to implement overnight.

If we're heading towards a mutually cooperative society without unjust "I wear the hat so I make the rules" hierarchies, whether or not we reach it in a utopian sense, I think we're still moving in the right direction.
