And if they refuse to leave? If they simply take your things by violence? What then?

Historically, the answer is to have them lynched, which does solve the problem, but I think most reasonable people would agree that isn’t something we want to bring back.

They the community moves on without them.

Historically Anarchists have not done that because anarchists have not had a societal opportunity to do their own thing away from other socioeconomial models, you’re thinking of tribal or even conservative communities.

I like how you had to invent a scenario to force your point across. You can do better, but it was a nice try. 6/10

  You say “invent a scenario” as if people don’t use violence to get what they want all the time.
  
  You can’t “move on without them” if they refuse to leave and continue recidivate. How do you deal with such a person in your ideal, anarchist society? It seems like your solution is to just pretend it wouldn’t be a problem, which is absurd on its face. You’re basically saying no one would decide to steal your food because everyone would just make their own instead. History shows that being incredibly unlikely.
  
  How do you distinguish between tribal organization and anarchist society. Both are small communities that are “self governing.” What is the key difference in your mind?

  Thank the gods. You just made it sound significantly more awful than I had already imagined.

    Yup. Because prisons are SO much better. Right?
