Not that I know of, which is one of the reasons why I’m not an anarchist. But the society anarchists imagines is quite more elaborated than what that demented sketch depicted.
And I get it, it’s a tv sketch, not all of them can be smart and witty. I just resent it being used to make a political point.
Simply being elaborate doesn’t make it any more realistic than the sketch. What the sketch gets at is the problem with rejecting hierarchies and authority which is at the core of anarchist ideology. There is a reason why societies inevitably converge on these mechanics as they grow, or go extinct.
As a scholar of anarchist theory, feel free to correct what it is I got wrong about it.
Meanwhile, the fact that anarchist societies have to contend with both external and internal pressures like any other society is the whole point here. If a society is unable to defend itself against external threats then it is not a viable society.
Can we see this anarchist society actually working anywhere?

No one forces you to study anarchist theory, but maybe you could refrain from talking about it as of you had.
