    Anarchy is incompatible with humans in general but this is about the definition and not if its realistic.

          Nope. That’s bartering. When small children want to exchange goods, they don’t draw up paper to represent abstract value, they barter because it’s natural, then they need to be taught how capitalism works. People bartered and exchanged goods and services for thousands of years before capitalism came along.

              It’s not a take, it’s history. Like recorded history. My argument was for what is natural, not what is logical or better. Humans started bartering thousands of years before the invention of currency because it’s the quickest and most natural way of exchanging goods. No need for insults either, we’re just talking here, no need to get so hot and bothered over it.

                  the history of non money society is super short

                  Wrong again. Human society was around approximately 300,000 years before we invented currency, money as we know it was only really invented 5,000 years ago, so unless your argument is it took humans 300,000 years to do what came naturally to them then money isn’t really natural.

                  its impractical

                  You’re moving the goalpost again, my argument was for what is natural, not what is practical.
