Well done, you have graduated from Anarchist Logic 1-0-1 :)

To state it another way: anarchy admits no rules, you must have no
rules, and if you treat this as a rule, you cannot be an anarchist -
so yes, anarchy is a paradox indeed.

And so to anyone asking about a particular "anarchist rule"
(biblical, obliquely, tangentially, implicitly or otherwise), a
standard response is to vehemently express absolute negation, or
absolute assertion of the rule asked about, in the hope that the one
asking the question ascertains the paradox inherent in the asking of
the question (a year or more back, I asked a very similar question to
the one you asked).
