for a generation

and after that leaders death

the people could elect a new leader based on their issues

not the previous generations issues

According to what? After the supreme leader is in power, the whole game of how he got there changes. There is no going back. No 'backsies'.

he can't go back correct

that leader will serve the people for the rest of his life

This is why Anarchism is best. No short term ends. Just one person and their commitment against dominance.

yes

but you must remember

the people can not defend themselves

not well atleast

even now one of the main purposes of government is to defend the people

Let me burst a bubble for you. What you have in your head about 'things' making people more powerful and being able to achieve things, are just imaginary power structures. What is really being done here but the re-arranging of duties in people's lives? This sacred thing you call 'government' is just made up of people pointed in a certain direction. We shouldn't limit ourselves to being controlled by this idea, but take it and realise it was the 'people' making this happen all along.

I understand the government is made by the people

it is made to defend and assist the people

Defence of what?

of the people inhabiting the land of the government

imagine

if there was an anarchist society

so

this means

no coherent military

no military funding or construction

now

if said society gets invaded

they are screwed

they cant produce enough to counter the enemy

actually

they could not produce at all

Anarchism is not a society or a system, it is just the negation of systems. People are free to achieve and cooperate much more than a petty government instruction.

yes

but having that eliminates the possibility of a military

due to a military is a government upon itself

Military is just like government. The status quo in social relations.

yes

so a military is effectively impossible in an anarchy

In the traditional sense, of course.

is there a non traditional sense?

Raiders.

Offence vs defence remember?
