you want a stateless state

I do read early human history

Again

a strawman.

What's your ideology?

thats not relevant

Yes it is.

Okay which class were in charge of this state? Exactly how'd this state use violence to keep the "proletariat" down?

I'm a Libertarian Communist.

Or slave owners

dont strawman my arguments by using personal attacks and ad hominems

adress what im saying

I am

judge me by the content of my character

It would be an ad hominem if I was simply denouncing your argument by personally attacking you.

I'm not though.

It's relevant because Seedle for example believes in the immediate destruction of the state (I assume) And I believe that when the proletariat has taken over the state and is done with it

it'll die out

Though I'm not too sure how ancom works

but if you remove the state and still have a leadership and a clear direction, a government essentially

Sorry libcom*

how do you not have a state

In which case I'm even more confused

In terms of a political entity, a state is any politically organized community living under a single system of government.[

>how do you not have a state

Because there's no class to enforce their will on you

Yeah a state needs to force violence upon a certain class

Semi-relevant and it'll open your eyes a bit on a historical materialist approach to history and class society.

does it have to though

without that it wont really function as a state

brb

this article refers to rome in 133BC as an empire even though it was still a republic at that point

and would remain on for almost 150 more years

0/10

the main downfall of rome was touched on in this article

that being the mass influx of slaves and collectivization of private property

with the original romans who built the empire becoming basically a minority in their own empire, rome was no longer roman

and quickly lost all of the values and ethos that built it to such great heights in the first place

thats why it became so directionless and decayed over time

what the fuck is this
