Governments purpose is NOT to "level the playing field", it is to assure no one blocks, or takes control OF the playing field.
That is not government. That is military.
The belief that the government protects people by instituting laws and documents is nonsense.
Force is what has always maintained order, and is what always will maintain order.
Anarchists believe in separating force from government. (force and government create the state) Some reject force altogether, although I disagree with that notion.
With modern libertarians and those scene kid minarchists , the traditional belief that a common protection force is anarchist has been devalued.
The Revolutionary Insurrectionary Army of Ukraine defended people. It was anarchist. It did nothing other than help communities defend themselves against both western liberal government and Soviet communism, so they could be free and practice voluntary organization.
