Yeah this is a bit dumb, there is such a thing as legitimate violence. Where we differ between ourselves as a species is where that legitimacy should come from.

Also we being different as a species is a spook

When the pastry chef empties his bag onto the cake, it is called "icing", but when I empty my bag onto the cake it is called "a violation of Twitch TOS".

It's because of people like you that we don't have hot tub streams anymore. Nice job, doctor kill joy.

The state is literally just an entity that has a monopoly on violence. Pretty much everything else it does stems from that.

Seems like a weird law, violence does. Show me on the doll where the lawyer hurt you?

Without violence, law do not exist. When you study laws, the first thing you learn is that without penalty, a law is virtual and will never be applied
