100%. Just as the word "anarchist", which in the 19th century meant much the same thing as "democrat", was turned into a boogieman in the 20th. It's meaning seems to have been rehabilitated somewhat in the digital age, where there are many examples of systems with no central authority working at scale (eg net, web, fediverse).

Statists are working hard to de-legitimise #anarchy as some sort of societal collapse.

All that means is that there is no oppressive regime to dictate what people do.

There are still laws, there is still order. Only it comes from the people, not from an arbitrary Moloch that is largely unrepresentative of the people.
