Since the beginning of man, tribes have emerged as the optimal unit of society. This fact has 3 main reasons 1 cooperation amongst a high trust social circle helped advance the economic prosperity through a division of labor so specialization and advances in technology increased the standard of living. As the tribe became more prosperous the wealth will naturally be sought after by outside tribes and requires a organized defense to repeal the outside invaders. Without direction that defense is ineffective and will be conquered by a better more organized and better armed society. 2. Now I agree whole hearted with the premise that anarchy without rulers and the non aggression principle or NAP is the most moral and fair standard to live by. The problem with that is your outside force does not give a damn about your morality and this evidentiary fact can be seen in the undeniable truth that no anarchist society exists in the world today. Some people have tried semi free societies like the gulch but the fact of the matter is it has to tip toe around water rights of the government and local municipalities. 3. Dispute resolution in a society with no supreme authority would be a bloodbath. Most people are not about to agree to go to a private 3rd party dispute resolution with out a threat to do so. You owe me money so come to xyz so they can rule on it.....sounds like a good way to end up in a trash bin. Paper or person

I'd also like to touch on one other thing: the fact it has not succeeded before does not mean that it cannot succeed in the future. If you were to tell someone in 1789 that they would be able to communicate on devices that harnessed electricity to send messages and voices across the globe instantaneously, and that these devices fit in one's hand and could also store information, view pictures, and view a moving series of pictures, you'd be ridiculed into obscurity. And yet, here we are.

Human beings are reactive not proactive and need to be forced to deferred compensation and build a defense. The guerilla warfare is only possible when you have an outside force financing and supplies subsidization. Literally every example you can point to is a successful proxy war of superpowers

You'd have to make the case that the Mujahideen were not capable of demoralizing Russian troops without American financing and backing, which they didn't have until well into the second half of the decade-long Soviet occupation. You're welcome to provide evidence to support your claim.
As for human beings only being reactive, that's simply not true. Human beings defer compensation for immediate wants all the time. If you've ever saved your money to buy a higher-dollar item instead of buying something small that you wanted, you've provided a counterexample to your claim.

You're automatically conflating tribal organization with the idea of forceful, coercive government. Tribes can exist, as you say, so that individuals support each other in a circle of trust with other individuals. But if you break that trust, well, they don't have to lock you in a cage, they can simply withdraw their support of you.
