Okay I feel like the more basic question of “who washes the diapers at the assisted living home” in anarchism is more the thing, less about the “upend the system” stuff with every other revolutionary philosophy.

Believe it or not but actually a fair number of people enjoy taking care of other people. The issue is not the job in itself but how it is devalued by the current society, ensuring low status and poor working conditions. Just go talk to some nurses, they’ll tell you the bad part of the job isn’t changing diapers but rather how management keeps shortening the time they have per patient or how their family wishes they’d been a doctor instead.
