"If people are different then that's a hierarchy, checkmate anarchists" = truly the most lazy dipshit line conservatives have. 1) Difference is not domination. What we oppose is relationships that constrain net choice. "Social hierarchies" are not any axis of difference.

Amazing how many people try to pull that bullshit like it’s some unassailable argument

Not all differences lend themselves to hierarchy, but some do, in some contexts. Being faster, or stronger, or smarter, having clearer vision, reproducing more... these things lead to material advantages. An additional subjective step to say this justifies hierarchy of course

Not those either in themselves hierarchy is more than people having more than others

Do you just mean hierarchy to mean any form of coercion? Is there a consistent and implementable left anarchist definition of coercion in this case?

No I wouldn’t say that and as for coercion I think definitions should always be fluid to an extent.

Language should be negotiable. Right and wrong should not be. This creates a problem when we talk about right and wrong
