Allrighty, a poor choice of words, then. What I meant was more or less along the lines of “while I like the idea of communism, I think maintaining vertical power structures while trying to make it happen is more or less doomed to result in yet another autocracy”

You may be interested in the article Why do Marxists Fail to Bring the “Worker’s Paradise?” Marxists disagree with the idea that AES states are autocracies, while acknowledging that AES certainly isn’t a wonderland.
Additionally, Marxists don’t have an issue with hierarchy, but classes. The Marxist and Anarchist notions of the state are different, and as such judging AES by how well it advanced goals it never had is a bit silly.
