Anarchy doesn't mean no rules, it means no hierarchy or unjustified authority, with relations being handled in a horizontal, bottom-top manner. Socialism also does not require state power over individuals. There are no example of an anarcho-communist state, because it is by definition stateless. However, there were anarchist movements in Spain and Ukraine before they were overrun by Franco's army and the Soviet Union, respectively.

Socialism would require intervention to redistribute wealth, no? And who is to intervene, if not someone that is collectively decided upon (which makes it a democratic government.)

It doesn't need a state to do that. The people would have to take control of the workplace and it make democratic, which by then it would make the state redundant. I do support a democratic system, it's just that I support direct democracy instead of representative democracy.
