This is what you said:

Even communes ultimately fail because hierarchies form within the commune, and the people at the bottom get tired of doing all the work and leave. That’s even when they aren’t deciding the laws and don’t have to worry about national defense. When communists are deciding the laws and have control over national defense, then oh yeah… there’s gonna be a hierarchy.

Çatalhöyük was a commune. There were no hierarchies, no division of labor between class or gender. It lasted 900 years. It predated capitalism by millennia.

I'm not sure why you don't understand why that proves you wrong.
