Zombie apocalypse is the familiar scenario for everyone? I'm not following.

  Yeah, everyone imagines that anarchy means apocalypse. And that anarchies mean a Mad Max or Fallout type situation with raiders wearing spikes. Or something from Judge Dredd. An anarchy is more likely to be like a faraway rural area - neighborhood patrols, more self-subsistence, neighbors cutting your grass, some baking banana bread for everyone, people burning garbage, adulterers getting beat up. CHAZ leaned into the TV stereotypes, and not the more natural historical ones.

    Were there really any anarchy ever in estabilished communities (i.e. ones that were tied to land/infrastructure/location and couldn't just move easily)? I thought that, in every single case, either a hierarchy of power formed internally or they were subjugated to by outside power. I mean, why wouldn't it happen?
