Yeah, I only support brutalising neighbours if its done nice and clean: by an army of attractive well-paid lawyers gaslighting everyone involved.

I’m not sure what you mean. If you’re saying people get screwed by large corpos… sure? Are you saying therefore burglaries and robberies are fine?
The implication is we don't live in a peaceful society. Violent coercion is just disguised as men in suits writing contracts that are economically infeasible to challenge backed up by skewed access to the State's means of physical violence.

In many ways, one could make the argument, a world where everyone is on an equal footing to do violence is preferable to one in which it is restricted to only a few.

That’s just anarchy. If you want to live in anarchy, go to Haiti or something. Everyone has the means to commit violence.

On your way you’ll notice a lot of people headed in the opposite direction. Turns out anarchy sucks way more than our capitalist democracy.
