Libertarian socialism aka anarcho-communism is good. Authoritarian socialism of the tankie variety with vanguardists that set themselves up in place of the bourgeoisie, not so good.

Rojava good, Free catalonia, Mahknovist ukraine, etc good. North Korea, bad.

What do you think a general assembly and participatory democracy is about? The point is to get people involved as members of the community that results in them being engaged and working towards mutual aid. You don't have to force people to do anything if they are in communities shaped by voluntary association. Anarchism doesn't mean no rules or no authority. It means the community is the authority and agrees upon societal standards. We aren't calvinists that worship work for the sake of toil. If someone doesn't want to do something then they don't have to do it. If society agrees then great then if not they kick you out and you can go associate with someone else.

We'd be more willing to work with Tankies if it weren't for that whole Kronstadt thing and their current chomping at the bit to reproduce it.
