I am not confusing hierarchy and authority. If binding decisions are being made and enforced, then authority exists. Whether someone "agrees" with the direction is irrelevant to the material reality of the situation. If a janitor believes they have a better idea for how to run the core of a nuclear reactor, they still should not be permitted to touch it. Authority in production is simply the enforcement of the binding decisions required to keep complex systems functioning.

You casually suggest abolishing major parts of modern industry, even if "slowly." This is nothing but a reactionary fantasy. Dismantling complex, large-scale production is deeply ableist. Sick and disabled people often rely on the highly coordinated, global production of pharmaceuticals, medical equipment, and life-sustaining infrastructure. Wishing this away privileges the temporarily able-bodied and ignores the material basis of human survival.

Furthermore, reducing class power to "mental illness" is both idealist and ableist. Capitalists and landlords do not exploit the working class because they are individually unwell. They do so because the material structure of their class position demands it. They act in their objective class interest to preserve property relations and extract surplus. Masking systemic, material exploitation as individual pathology prevents any real understanding of how society functions.

You claim your comments are meant for "inspiring" anarchists who get confused by Marxist-Leninist content. But these are not fresh insights. They are recycled, long-debunked misunderstandings and misappropriations of political concepts. Framing idealist confusion as inspiration will only mislead people who are genuinely seeking a materialist path to oppose imperialism and capitalism.
