Would you have quibbled less if I had said "authoritarianism" instead of "violence"? I wasn't trying to be slanted, that was genuinely my impression of what the term meant.

You know what the single most powerful force in human history is?

Organization. Which is always hierarchal. It doesn't have to mean socially, but definitely organizationally.

You know what the most common attribute of Anarchist revolutions is? They all failed. Every single one of them. That is what you want. Failure.
