Subsidiarity Legal pluralism Corporatism Civic republicanism Having or seeing the need for a state doesn't mean the state is all powerful or that anyone wants it to be. There's been a takeover of this false dichotomy that to be in favor of *any* government means you are a statist. That's a false premise and shouldn't be acknowledged as legitimate in the least. Spreading this false dichotomy is actively shutting down any real debate around the topic and forcing everyone to agree to a fallacy. This is the same thing the current lefties do in order to force compliance with their over arching agenda. If the true aim is to actually make things better shutting people down is not the way to do it. Especially not with fallacies.

All these systems you suggested require compulsory taxation backed by violence. So yeah it’s statism and you can go fuck yourself for arguing that violence should be used on peaceful people.
