    Calling decentralized militias a state is a pretty big stretch of the definition.

      Not if these decentralized militias are able to defend themselves against reactionaries. Then it precisely fits the definition that marxists use: they violently force their will (to survive and to defend the anarchist project) on to another class (usually fascist capitalists).
