International sanctions do not require law of any kind nor formal government of any kind; they can happen in an anhierarchic environment -> this is an observed fact, making it a Z2 Statement. case of: Q49 real-world observation.
Anarchy is not anhierarchy / Anarchy cannot be anhierarchy -> anarchists love to say this is true but in practice it just isn't true at all because all it takes is a large number of people coming together in friendship and nominal 'equality' and headless leaderlessness who are materially practicing anhierarchy for that to become for all intents and purposes part of the definition of anarchy.
Anarchies and hierarchy are not mutually exclusive -> anarchists are going to hate this one but the further you look into it the more it would seem to be true. you almost can't even define an anarchy as requiring the absence of hierarchy because that's simply not what most anarchies are. in most cases an anarchy is purely a stationary or back-and-forth combination of heterogeneous elements. that does not preclude spatial slot hierarchies over whether people are able to make it into any of the contained elements, or the overall system.
