There's a difference between tech and mass manufacturing and global supply chains. Having a microwave, full kitchen, solar panels, etc in a small commune is fine, but to make those you need those large-scale manufacturing processes and supply chains, which requires administration and coordination.
That's why I suggested looking to the Zapatistas, Anarchists in the modern day, and studying their struggles and successes. What works for them, what do they struggle with? What can we take, what should we leave? Why go back tens of thousands of years when there are Anarchist societies today to learn from?
Indigenous anarchists aren't all dead. You don't have to go back in time. You can go talk to them today. You can read modern indigenous communist theory.
Please, I am begging you to read theory. Go to Library Genesis and download Kayanerenko;wa. Its free, it's easy.
Yep, they exist in the Chiapas region too, like the Zapatistas. They have had to deal with the modern geopolitical climate and have learned a lot.
