Why is anarchism a meme around here?

I always see people saying that “anarchism is a meme”, does anyone have some brief examples of why, or some resources I can go to that will teach me why it’s a joke? Is it because society needs some sort of structures to succeed, and anarchism is basically “fuck all the rules”?
