Do you have any examples? I'm not aware of this, Marxists generally advocate for a centralized stateless society while Anarchists advocate for horizontalist structures, generally.
I'm not thoroughly read up on theory and I'm not about to heavily defend the previous argument. I'm still not certain after reading in between replying here.
I don't see why a centralized state can't have more flattened power hierarchies, especially as needs and material conditions are improved.
The structure of society largely depends on the mode of production. As production advances well into Communism, it would likely flatten more and more, though administration and whatnot may still continue to exist.
