    I don’t actually know all that much about it, but the anarchists that I know are all about communities and mutual support and stuff. So I guess they think government is bad and communities supporting each other is good.

    Personally I wonder what they’d call it when a community gets really good at providing a particular type of support and they agree to pool their resources to efficiently provide said support to all members of the community.

      Yes yes and then they discover that managing that shared pool of resources is quite the job so they all decide on a few key people to take on the task with specific roles. I think we’re going somewhere with this!

        So? Rotating certain roles in society is part of anarchist theory and common practice in anarchist organizations. Besides anarchists aren’t opposed to assigning certain roles or managing resources. The point is how you do it i.e by actual democratic means.

      You’re basically describing a coop.

      The thing is that these resources could get withdrawn in case that community can’t won’t supply that support anymore.
