Which is why I went to learn from every ideology. I studied anarchist theory. I studied bourgeois economics. I studied communist theory. I even had a socdem phase.
The organisation I prefer is anarcho-syndicalism
Then just say that from the start.
Different system work on different scales
Which is why we should approach problems with a toolkit approach rather than sticking to one way of solving problems.
I do know that no one person or minority group on the planet have all the answers or are even capable of consistently acting in good faith which is why I know authority is a non-starter.
What exactly in your view is “authority”?
Communists use “authority” in the colloquial sense (as a synonym for “jurisdiction”, aka a designated field of formal decision making power). In the communist view, authority is nothing more than a component of dividing labor and responsibility which cannot be rid of in a complex society.
My doctor has the authority over prescribing medicines to me (which let’s be clear, I’m not a big fan of) and the streets sweeper has authority over the machine thing they use (so it is their responsibility to use the machine and prevent others from messing with it).
I am well aware that anarchists have their own definitions of authority but I have heard so many different definitions that I have to ask this every time I come across a new anarchist.
