I would strongly advise to not confuse the "state" with the "resulting de facto inferences of the richest and most powerful few" in a "coordinated effort of a collective society to protect us from those few" with the later, because those few also want to destroy it for their own benefit... a "state" made up of all the society is the only coordinated thing protecting us from those few human predators
The rich didn't create themselves, buddy.
...do anarchists think that states created rich people? because I am 100% confident that there were rich people before there were states. its more accurate to say that rich people created states, not the other way around.
