That’s the point of government: the state has a monopoly on the legitimate use of physical force.

That’s from “Politics as a Vocation” by Max Weber. It’s also why the population needs to beat back if that violence isn’t legitimate (i.e. it’s abusing the population in the first place).

Or dissolve the government and realise offloading societal obligations to use violence to a hierarchical organisation is not the solution.

If there must be violence, let it come from the people for the people.

Government is like money. Get rid of it and people will create it again to fill the function they need it to fill, so let’s have it do what we need and help instead of harm

And other shit liberals tell themselves to never attempt change.

call me when you’ve built a single homeless shelter. just one. then you can lecture me on anything.
