Anarcho-communism explained

Anarcho-communism explained | So you say anarcho-communism is an oxymoron. Anarchism’s roots are in socialism, with individualist and mutualist thinkers like Godwin and Proudhon. Anarcho-communism was popularized by thinkers like Peter Kropotkin, who advocated for a society without a state, without capitalism or money, where people live like brothers and sisters, work and share the fruits of labor in common and manage this distribution through the free associations of laborers to fulfill the needs of all. A state is necessary to enforce communism you say? Wrong. The state is an oppressive institution that upholds class rule to maintain the privileges and power of the ruling elite. People are equals under anarchism and class and money are abolished, so the state need not exist. | image tagged in you're not just wrong you're stupid,anarchy,anarchism,anarcho-communism,conservative logic,communism | made w/ Imgflip meme maker

How do you propose we get to "post-scarcity" first?

Stop the unequal distribution of resources by abolishing private property, reverse harmful industrial projects where it harms the environment and reduces our ability to grow crops. I think producing according to need can ensure less food is wasted and that food is getting to where it needs to.

Murray Bookchin explores this very topic in “Post-Scarcity Anarchism”.

That's exactly who is was referencing. Bookchin changed my life when I was a young radical. I thought you might have heard of him too.
My biggest problem now; is what do you do about malicious actors? If someone hoards food for profit or doesn't work as hard as they could. Will you personally execute them?
