    If the state were to suddenly disappear, yes, I’d agree with you. Humans have existed for hundreds of thousands of years, most of that without a state, and with many groups living in what were likely arguably something like anarcho-communist societies (check out The Dawn Of Everything from David Graeber). Warlords are a symptom of a power vacuum.

      Cultural slaves need support, time, and healing before anything close to freedom can happen. They will immediately go insane and reforge their chains.
