Or that hierarchy, opposition to hierarchy is stupid because, you know, food chains or, you know, the hierarchy of needs. But as you know, anarchists are focused on very specific things when we use these terms. So arguing against it with other definitions doesn't make sense. And bi-hierarchy is...
Anarchists are for just stratification of society, which gives some individuals, groups, or institutions authority over others. And authority refers to the recognized right above others in a social relationship to give commands, to enforce obedience, to control property, to exploit, and so on.

Exactly, which is why I say opposition to all authorities and their justifying dogmas. Because all of them have dogmas, including the example that Chomsky uses, which is typically of the parent pulling their child away from traffic. That is not an exercise of authority. And the relationship between a parent and a child is something that can and should be interrogated.

Exactly. Because then it also makes it harder for people to sort of question the authority they're more comfortable with, or the hierarchies they're more comfortable with. So you'll see that where so-called anarchists say, oh, no, we don't actually oppose all hierarchies. You know, parents think, and it really...
