-web

-android

Please begin copied raw text posts (lacking a screenshot that makes it apparent it is from Tumblr) with:

Well anarchists disagree with the fundamental premise that the state (generic name for government) should have either the right to create laws that are applied to everyone living in a geographic are or the act of people appointed by the state to enforce it.

The short version of that belief is based on the concept of consensus of consequences, decided and enforced among equals. As opposed to 2 special classes of citizens having special roles, ruling over others, such as senators and police.

Cops enforce authority of the ruling class through a monopoly on violence. The ruling class is the bourgeoisie. Neither senators nor police are a separate class, just traitors to the working class.

Well said

In theory fully agree, but we also need to remind ourselves that there's a significant percentage of law makers that come from capitalist families.
