    yeah, that's a good point, and kind of what i'm thinking as well. the early christians were doing a proto-anarchism at least in some places before the romans decided to take it up. co-opted massively by every single western state, kingdom, and ruling entity since. but then, much of the global south is at least spiritual in some way, if not in terms of a colonizing religion then at least in their own indigenous beliefs. so movements will have to deal with it, and it doesn't seem like outright deleting the prevailing spiritual outright works super well. you get ideological enemies, not newly secularized comrades.
