I agree. My view is that Anarchism provides two things to those who understand it. The first is what you’ve said, ideals of utopian societies. The second is critical thought of power structures. Anarchism allows the individual to deconstruct any power structure in order to better understand and evaluate it. Without viewing the world in this way, titles and power and hierarchies are often misevaluated as being forces for good.
