I listened to it last night.
I’m not sure how people can be stopped from forming government. It’s our nature to do so. I also didn’t follow very well why violence, rule of the jungle, wouldn’t take over.
Local cooperation doesn’t need to devolved into “government”. It’s a lot easier to keep association beneficial and egalitarian if you can opt out at any time and join a different group.
Try that with your local version of “City Hall”.
