I made a post on hierarchy a month ago but I have some more specific questions now.

I've been hit with the claim that mass production industries that are needed today would not be possible without a hierarchy. That due to regional limitations and the logistics of smartphone manufacturing, technology cannot be produced on the needed scale without a hierarchy of managers.

This is quoted in PCB fabrication, as well as other areas such as medicine and other mass produced goods.

It is also said that managers are needed for efficiency, though I don't understand that.

Because the anarchist movement, abolishing hierarchy, "runs counter" to the "global direction of humanity and progress", it is acclaimed to being "doomed to failure" and "idealist".

What would be the anarchist response to this? Would appreciate detailed responses and/or resources.

I want to improve my anarchist understanding

You must not know about the level of infighting and shit flinging they did, and still perpetuate, to this day, labelling anyone who didn't fully support Stalinism as a Trotskyist and traitor to communism.

There are very, very good historical reasons for why Anarchists are weary of 'Marxist-Leninists'.

Nearly everytime they've tried to cooperate against capitalism, the Leninists or Stalinists then betray and or kill all of the Anarchists or others who weren't fully aligned with them.

    ... I can talk all the shit I want.

    'Allies' who backstab you and try to kill you after they appoint themselves as the leaders of the movement that you started in your own country... are not great allies.
