Folks grow up in this society not knowing about the social war: that the very existence of the State constitutes a war against the planet and all its peoples. Even if they feel the existence of that war in their bones, because they’re targets of direct violence due to their race, their class, their gender, their nationality, their beliefs and actions, their existence as Indigenous people, they don’t hear anything about the concept of social war in the media, in school, even in social movements, which tend to be dominated by a “loyal opposition” that wants to reform the system to help it survive.
From a substack called Surviving Leviathan by Peter Gelderloos , questioning the ubiquity of non violence in protest culture.
