Maybe its just me but it always seemed like a way of bringing one of the inherent flaws of anarchist fiction to the fore.
I think it's just you. If you were truly an anarchist then you would oppose anything that would force your views or any views on anybody. The entire purpose is to draw your own views based on your observations and experiences and formulating an idea for society without the need for governance.
It's easy to call yourself an anarchist though and go around terrorising people. Politicians love it when people do that.
