If you make a serious claim the least you can do is provide some evidence. Otherwise why should I take anything you say seriously?
I've often wondered if anarchism is actually more just. How do you deal with things like criminals without resorting to vigilantism? You must have a solution to this if you want to build stable communes. I don't read much anarchist literature as I don't care for 100 year old books, so there might be a solution there.
Dismissing the practicality of an idea as being unimportant is not great. If you support something you know won't work you aren't helping anyone.
Edit: also I don't know how you can call me an apologist for the rich. I am all for eating billionaires for breakfast, I just want it to be for the right reasons not something people have made up.
What would you accept as evidence?
You know like a study or financial documents proving the majority of the bourgeoisie or even just billionaires support or fund rascist, sexist, homophobic or other kinds of organizations that attempt to divide people.
Even then I expect there to be exceptions like Bill Gates who are known for their philanthropy. Exceptions aren't a reason to keep around billionaires of course as no individual should have that much power, money, or influence.
