I appreciate your perspective. But we pacifists should also recognize that many people see violence as a necessary part of governance for a peaceful society. Wrong or right is not for us to decide. This is their valid world view. The anarchists’ recipe for peace does not require that all states should be abolished or that all people should embrace the wisdom of anarchy. IMHO, the only requirement for lasting peace is that free people should be free. All others are right to choose otherwise. ✌🏼
