  Politics is all about the distribution of the legitimate use of violence. It’s where governments get their authority from, it’s a part of every political ideology. The real question is what is the violence for, where is it directed, and who’s doing it? The status quo under neoliberalism is incredibly violent but that doesn’t seem to bother you. What’s up with that?

    It’s because under the neo liberal the violence is very often indirect which is part of the design. Like there’s not official policy dictating the homelessness people be killed they just die on the streets and the typical neo lib won’t give a shit. They just believe that state violence against those in poverty is the natural order and they can just wash their hands of it.

      Couldn’t have said it better myself. Dehumanization and apathy are the killing machines of modern governments

    Yes. Killing innocent individuals eating a fast meal is totally 100% legitimate.

      Sure, if that’s how you want to engage with a legitimate attempt to discuss revolutionary politics with you, go ahead. God forbid people attempt to have a good faith conversation about divisive topic on the internet, silly me for giving you the benefit of the doubt. Get fucked, lib. Is that what you wanted me to say?
