It’s one of the major themes of the source that you linked.
The many stories, past and present, that demonstrate how anarchy works have been suppressed and distorted because of the revolutionary conclusions we might draw from them. We can live in a society with no bosses, masters, politicians, or bureaucrats; a society with no judges, no police, and no criminals, no rich or poor; a society free of sexism, homophobia, and transphobia; a society in which the wounds from centuries of enslavement, colonialism, and genocide are finally allowed to heal. The only things stopping us are the prisons, programming, and paychecks of the powerful, as well as our own lack of faith in ourselves.
Every society is going to have some criminals. Lack of access to things people need to survive is a major reason for commission of crimes, but it is not the only reason. Plenty of people do illegal things just because they feel like it. Some people are pathological liars. If a society cannot deal with those, it will eventually fail. Obviously crime will go down by (throwing a number out) a factor of at least five once the magical socialist utopia is in place, but to argue that it will entirely disappear is hopelessly naive.

Again, I’m not sure why you think anyone is saying that crime won’t exist or that people won’t have to deal with criminals.
You know, its almost, almost as if you’re making up a position no one is taking and then arguing against that instead.
Well, I say almost…
maybe if i make this short enough you’ll actually read the whole thing
how
Oh, I read the whole thing. I’m just dodging and evading in the same way you do. Turns out, you find your behaviour quite annoying too.
I’m not sure why you think I have to answer for an ideology to your satisfaction or I have to abandon any agreement I might have with it.
What is it about you that makes you think thr only options are the police, exactly as we have them now, or we just have to trust crime won’t exist?
Why do you have to pretend these are the only two options?
