Any fiction books with an anarchist context?

There are countless games that simulate worlds and societies with hierarchical structures (you are a god, you are a military leader, you are a business owner, you are a football club manager, etc). Are there any games that explore player agency within an anarchic context? I’m not asking for examples with mere absence of visible hierarchy (e.g. OpenSuspect) but rather simulations of explicit anarchist dynamics and horizontal structures. I’m interested less in games that portray anarchy as an unstable state of social unrest (i.e. rioting), but rather as a stable state of being and living for human beings.

    This does not have any context

    It's from:

    Aer'ŝip'estr'ino kaj sia amato.

    Rakonto.

    "Tavaso, ci ŝajne supozas ke mi zorgas pri ciaj opinioj." Fi'anĝelo re'klinis trankvile sid'ile, levante glitan, akran du'on'brovon al li moke. "Mi ne eĉ povas imagi kial ci tiel pensas."

    Lia esprimo koler'eta tiom ne'daŭris ke sciis ke ŝi ŝajn'igus mal'rimarki ĝin. Li sciis ke plaĉ'igas ŝin rigardi lian koler'adon sid'ile, ne'povante kontri ŝiajn ordonojn, kaj permesis ŝin ĝui ek'fieron. Pri tiu ek'fiero bedaŭr'igos ŝin — tro'volo ja estas lia laboro'fako, ĉu ne.

    "Bone. Mi paŭz'endos iujn projektojn, pri kelkajn ci de'profitos." Ŝi ne ja log'iĝus, sed ĉagren'iĝus. Fi'anĝelo gracie glut'etis la or'koloran vinon si kiel'donace portis ŝin, almenaŭ ja vizaĝe ne mal'trankvila.

    "Ci ĉiam opinias cin tre estim'inda."

    Under the current capitalist system, should people who self identify as anarchist, should they not take out loans for houses/cars? Afaik, capitalism would prevent a lot of people from being able to afford to buy a house without a loan.

    afaik anarchism is in favor of housing being a, (whats-the-word) service, rather than a, uh, capitalist good.

    Anarchism is in favor of subsidized/free/i'm-not-sure-what-the-word-is education, transporation, health care too?

    Transportation as in private vehicle or like buses? Buses i can easily imagine being 'free'. Private vehicles my imagination isn't returning anything.

    A summary would be nice. How would anarchists handle people getting loans to buy expensive things? In an anarchist society/group where they still use regular money

    Makes sense to me!

    I believe that reddit is a bad platform. Not because of it’s content, but because it is controlled by a single organization, like in a dictatorship. With it’s only values being creating profit for it’s shareholders. It has a business model of tracking their users and create addiction among it’s users. It will only devolve in time.

    This will confuse/offend some center/righties

    If this sub is related to TheRedPill, it might get banned

    Alluding to the symbol of the "red pill" from the film The Matrix, r/TheRedPill promotes misogyny, hegemonic masculinity, and traditional gender roles. The Southern Poverty Law Center describes it as one of several male supremacist subreddits featuring xenophobic discourse. It has been associated with several right-wing movements and the alt-right because of its attacks on feminism and mockery of rape.
