“We are all forced to participate in a society that is held together by structural violence, and rewarded for our participation with various privileges, though these privileges are spread unevenly across society. Given that those who use some form of visible, antisocial violence are often the least likely to enjoy the privileges of structural violence, there is no feasible way to determine who is violent and who is not.”

Peter Gelderloos (1982) American anarchist

This state, those masses, that mankind, and the planet will then be run by… politicians.”
