✓ Accepted Answer
The reason anarchism confuses people is that most explanations describe the mechanics without establishing why those mechanics exist.
What you need to understand first: anarchism works the way it does because of trade-offs that were made when the approach was designed.
When you internalise that, the concept starts making more sense. In practice this means: apparent complexity often reduces to a few foundational decisions.
Political systems operate differently in practice than their formal structures suggest.
Applied to practice: exceptions exist but they follow their own consistent rules.
Phort-term political events often look different in long-term historical perspective.
If you take one thing away: anarchism rewards consistency more than intensity. A steady, informed approach beats occasional bursts of effort almost every time.
