please, go read some anarchist resources. because you are assuming anarchist are “peaceful” all my anarchist friends are armed and either have or are working on their open carry license.
are you aware of the concept of “organizing”? we aren’t a “group of friends” were a decentralized network with coalitions spanning multiple counties.
and you can see direct action in action. there are so many videos of ICE twats running from the public without taking whoever they were going to kidnap.
the Black Panthers are patrolling the streets with machine guns again.
you can just do stuff without permission from the state.
So it sounds like what you’re describing is acts of resistance while living under the capitalist world order. What I’m talking about is what happens after a successful revolution and you are trying to maintain control in the face of capitalist wealth and power.
Obviously, yes, organize and form resistance coalitions and use direct action to stop the fascists. Revolution is not possible without all of that. But IMO neither is revolution possible solely through those things. By design, a decentralized network of coalitions is not as effective at wielding power as a centralized state, which is a serious handicap in a war.
Honestly though, I would have no qualms with adopting an anarchist strategy if it seriously seemed like the best approach given material conditions at the time. At all times, Power to the People.
The anarchists in Spain managed to fight Spain, until international support ended, except the Nazis didn’t end support in violation of a treaty. resulting in Fascist Spain Spain having near unlimited support from Italy and Germany, and Catalunya getting fuck all. but before that happened, they managed to fight and resist.
each batallion was democratic, they voted on every military action, with the only rule is that there is no votes during active combat.

That still doesn’t answer how groups of friends prevail against a centralized army with the industrial capacity of the world behind them.
