We have to reject one of the most poisonous confusions in revolutionary politics: the belief that a willingness to kill proves seriousness. Too many self-described revolutionaries, especially in the United States, have absorbed the deepest assumptions of American gun culture while imagining themselves to be opposing it.

They ask us to imagine a society that exists after capitalism, after domination, after the centralized state, after hierarchy has stopped being treated as the natural structure of human […]
