Cooperation can still exist without authority.
The difficulty isn't in the cooperation part. It's with the not having an authority. Some corrupt assholes will always try to take charge and be an authority.
I feel like the logical endpoint of "corruption in a system of anarchy" then is just bandit gangs.
I have a hard time saying those are worse for society than rich capitalists these days. But they're not good.
I am an anarchist, but I am also not naive. The only way an anarchist utopia could ever truly exist is if people were completely free of greed and desire to have power over others. Which is extremely unlikely.
That doesn't mean I don't want it, tho. 😔
