  But it is kind of how humans work.

    Then, with that logic, none of the social systems work whether it’s capitalism, communism, anarchism, socialism, etc.

  I have visited wikipedia. So you mean the anarchy that is “without hierarchy or authority” but not complete chaos?

  I guess I’m unclear how you manage that without it devolving into chaos though. Like corporations constantly prove that if we don’t have a law against it they’d just sell humans. I dunno how you manage to make an equitable society without some kind of rules and enforcement of said rules, when there will always be bad actors.

  It’s a more complex concept than I assumed, but I struggle to conceptualize what that kind of system actually looks like.

    Yes. Sort of.

    To be honest, I think even I need more education on the topic. But I think it’s more like societies form organically. People pick roles and contribute to society as needed instead of doing a job just because you need to pay the rent.

    And it doesn’t mean there’s an absence of rules or laws. And commerce would still function but there would be a specific need for it. And it wouldn’t be just for profit. So that removed a lot of incentive to do bad things.
