This, I second that. Excluding theMilei types of the “anarchist” right, of course (in truth they are turbocapitalists).
I keep thinking of Durruti in the Spanish Civil War. Someone who fights fachos deserves respect in my view.
The debate around what future is the best communism, if Lenin-style or ancom, is largely academic. Top-bottom and bottom-top politics are two sides of the same dialectic (socialism vs communism). It needs to be solved dialectically, but only after the Trumps of the century have been buried in the dumpster of history.
Therefore, thinking from historical materialism, I prefer to think of anarchism as part of a socialist or leftist tradition and not as an ideal society. The first is useful (Durruti), the second is political fiction. Fun but fantastical.
