I hear this claim a fair bit, admittedly often in communist spaces.
It is said that any group of people bigger than 50-200 people “requires” hierarchy.
I’m not sure about that.
What do anarchists make of this?

Short version; processing bottlenecks and latency, variety of perspectives not utilized, single points of failure, organizational brittleness. Medium compressed version? https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/4777587
I’m not interested in debating this with an illiterate peddling orthodox folk knowledge.
Its also morally wrong in most cases, but lets not pretend anyone whos not already a freak of some sort has ever given a single fuck about that. Coercion, alienation at every part of the hierarchy, people being sacrificed for bullshit they dont believe in, all that-but if you hadn’t considered that you already know you’re a bastard.
