There are too many career politicians. People who would struggle to hold down a position in any other profession.
They join a party, learn how to get nominated and elected at college/university, find themselves in office the just grift until they die.

No, you can have a horizontal structure that doesn't give anyone power over you and meets your needs.

And who keeps the warlords at bay?

If literally everyone's needs are met, why would anyone side with a warlord?
Hmm I can participate in society with basically zero obligations other than "mind my own business", or I can give up all my power to a strongman.
Obviously communes are able to defend themselves, I don't know why you seem to think they wouldn't.
Go read some theory and get back to me. Theanarchistlibrary.org is right there

Pick your numbers, something but like
6 for congress, 4 for Governor, 20 max in public office.Also their salary is based on their represented area. For a Congress representative, the national average is their base pay. If the area they represent is below average, a 30% of the difference is deducted. If it's above average, 30% of the difference is added.
After 1 year, the percentage increases by 10 every year you're in office.
So by year 6 if your doing a shit job your pay will be -90% the difference. If the national average is 50k, and your area is at 20k, the difference is 30k, 90% of that is 27K, so your salary is 50k-27k, which is 23K.
Edit; you know what, I'm upping the percentage increase to 30 a year, now if your doing a shit job at year 6 your salary will be 180% less. Why should it be set up so you still make more than everyone struggling?

People have wants more than needs when needs are largely met. You are imagining a humanity that simply does not exist.
Again, how are you going to deal with a band of assholes that want to TAKE from you?

Authoritarians create crisis then claim power. It doesnt matter if everyone's needs are being met. They will create chaos and then become the savior, being, "the only one who can fix it" ignoring the fact they created the problem in the first place.
