Doesn’t have to be one person, it can be the majority workers in a centralised production system deciding to stop exporting something to a certain region because they don’t like them for whatever reason.
Anarchism is what the world had before we started forming governments. If anarchism is a good and viable means of self-governing, why is it not adopted in countries across the globe? Why is there so much history of structured society overcoming anarchy? Where are all the utopian anarchist societies today?
Centralised production is the only option in some forms of production, is every town going to have it’s own steel mill or power plant?
See the mutual aid part? That means peoples can work together for larger scale needs.
People are capable of voluntarily working together to create complex things without being ordered at gunpoint.
Yes sure, but there will be centralised production and because of that implicitly a form of centralised power.
Not how it works buddy.
Can’t have power if everyone leaves a worksite due to some wannabe despot. Being distributed allows flexibility and choice.
And when there is no state apparatus to force people to be beholden to power, there is no power to stop them.

If a group of anarchists don’t want to associate with others, that’s their choice.
Sounds like a clustefuck, how do you organise internation production like that?
Through choice not coercion.

Destroyed by people that like hoarding power, be it capitalist or self-proclaimed “communist”.
What you’re calling “overcoming” is actually “backstabbing” once anarchists are no longer needed.
But it’ll work this time, right?
Sure, we just need to guillotine all the people who refuse to give up their authority
