As a society, we keep asking the government to stop abusers like Epstein.

The problem is that you don’t ask a greater abuser to stop abusers. Governments have a monopoly on violence and blood-soaked hands. They perpetuate human rights abuses, including state-sponsored human trafficking. The government is part of the problem in one way or another.

The solutions come from stopping it ourselves in our own communities and in the best case scenarios, preventing the crimes before they happen. The government isn’t the solution.

So are you willing to take a personal step in your community by admitting I never threatened to kill you, as you accused me of doing before Trump threatened to kill people like me in response?

We are all in an abusive relationship with the government. Trying to conform to their demands so they don’t get angry and convincing ourself that if we work hard we can slowly change them.

Unfortunately, this is correct.

Well, that's the case for most people. Not true and self respecting anarchists.
