Yes,i’m sure that taoism is about reaching communism without going throught the dictatorship of the proletarian fase(that’s the actual definition of anarchism)

No it doesn't. It might produce a particular society opposed to your values though, any decent Western philosopher will too. If your measure is that it doesn't agree with my culture and beliefs then you don't know what philosophy is and you should kill yourself, fucking ape.
