That's a more charitable interpretation that I'm inclined to give a shitpost, but then again, it's a shitpost, I probably shouldn't get my panties in a bunch
Iirc one of historical attempts often cited by anarchists were Cantonal Uprising in Spain and they did almost exactly that.

Excuse me, you could also look at a quasi-state with work camps or warlord army territorry, and you could still say those were not authoritarian and it will be so because you nonauthoritarianly said so.
