Anyway, you bypass the actual topic. You took "early stages of anarchy" and altered it to plain "anarchy". Then you took "noticeable society" and altered it to "humans as social creatures", bypassing humans as families, clans, communities, interest groups, civilization and yes, also as society in terms of nations and political systems. Such a rhetoric is also called "straw man fallacy".
No, it isn't. Calling it a "straw man fallacy" is actually committing the straw man fallacy. I just asked for clarification.
