  “Left” does always require big, central governments.

  Anarchists advocate for self-organized, decentralized communities and federations based on voluntary cooperation.

  And he end goal of Communism was essentially the same thing.

    That doesn’t really respond to the dilemma. If there isn’t a strong system to stop abuses, there aren’t going to be personal freedoms and economic equality.

      Any strong system will inevitable by perverted by a corrupt ruler and twisted to benefit a minority ruling class at the expense of the people.
