BTW, Capitalism CANNOT exist without the bourgeois state so, by all means, usher in more anarchy. It will be a pleasure to watch capitalism collapse under the weight of it's own contradictions.

Joint ownership is already a thing in capitalism. Two or more people jointly owning a resource in no way implies that they must submit to a monopolistic arbiter of force. In fact, it's only when resources are jointly shared by everyone that a monopoly disappears.

This is why communism is a stateless, classless society. The classless part is important, because when you have property relations that give rise to class, a state inevitably appears to enforce those property relations one against the other.

Communism doesn't necessarily need to be achieved through statism, except that statism already exists via the bourgeois state. Communism isn't about enforcing equality of outcome, it's about formulating the necessary material conditions for statelessness.

There is a wealth of communist theory post-marx, not all of which relies on the utilization of authoritarian measures to achieve the goal of a communist society. Richard Wolff, an American Marxian economics professor, for example, advocates for achieving socialism voluntarily.
