    That group won’t exist in a vacuum. It needs to be resilient to outside interference. Even inside that group there are going to be people that only identify with it out of convenience rather than true belief. It is still possible for individuals to accrue social capital, form “inner circles” and individually stockpile resources - and stopping them would logically infringe on their freedoms to associate, freedom to dig holes, etc.

      Stockpiling resources isn’t possibly without exploitation. Why would anyone let you stockpile resources they create? These assumptions don’t make sense

        Why would anyone let you stockpile resources they create?

        the same reason people let it happen now: people aren’t actually a hivemind where every individual steadfastly holds to your chosen ideology and ceaselessly watches each other and keeps precise track of what everyone is doing. Surveillance states can’t root out crime and black markets, so I very much doubt a loose association of stateless communes can do it either.
