Quite. I wonder how is it that socialist "anarchists" can claim that
true anarchism is socialist when the single common characteristic of
every commune that ever existed is a tendency to become tyrannized by
control freaks.
I would posit that it is because non-free market based systems of
economic distribution are so unwieldy that they require tyrannical
control mechanisms to strongly dictate rules of distribution to avoid
communal dissolution and strife. Given this, it is quite plain to see
that it is impossible for any form of socialism to exhibit any sort of
anarchy in anything but the more benign artistic/cultural aspects.
The mere fact that the socialist 'anarchists' had to write a propaganda
piece calling itself "THE anarchist FAQ" to claim otherwise, whithout
any factual proof in practice, demonstrates how implausible in reality
such a point of view is.
