We don't have territory wars within the US states because if you start shooting at your neighbors, the police arrive.

You are aware of ICE going around and terrorizing and shooting at people, and doing all kinds of property damage... commiting literally tens of thousands of crimes... and the police largely just do nothing about this, in the moment, often outright aiding them in this?

This is where your model breaks down.

You don't even need ICE. You just need 'protestors' the police are friendly toward, vs 'protestors' they are not friendly toward.

Or, howabout civil asset forfeiture? Police can legally steal your money, literally charge the money itself with a crime, and the money is presumed guilty untill proven innocent... the onus is now on you to prove that your property is not guilty of a crime.

Or, a similar kind of thing, scaled up is when states do this to other state's funds, 'freezing' them is usually the terminology used.

Or what about mass, systemic, persistent wage-theft? One class of people/legal entitities are just allowed to commit... on the book, illegal crimes, all the time, every day... and nobody really looks into that, the victim usually has to do an inordinate amount of work. Compared to the reverse situation where an employee embezzles money or steals a thing from a company, or where a customer steals a thing off a shelf.

States and state-based and state-backed/favorrd organizations play by the same actual rules as anarchists do.

Anarchists just don't lie about that fact, as state-based/backed/favored organizations often do.
