If might makes right a state will end up forming anyways. A populist commune is still a state. Anarchy is not possible in any sense of what one might describe as a functional society. As soon as there’s a society a state will form.

But that’s also not how chimpanzee society works anyways, since mostly it’s an alpha challenged by a younger stronger chimp who takes their place and makes sure everyone else follows the rules. They even have something like a police force.

It's a government, but it isn't necessarily a state. Regardless, Anarchists aren't against all forms of government. The media's version of total chaos is not what Anarchists are trying to create.
