Are you seriously trying to say atrocities and oppression can't or won't happen without a state?
People will still exist. What do you think would happen in Texas or Oklahoma or the Carolinas if there was no longer a state telling them they can't enslave people?
(Caveat: yes, I know about the prisons carve-out. That's unjust, of course, but how do you expect to even patch that hole without a state?)
