Borders are violence

[–] Allonzee 5 points 4 months ago

I agree, and I'm for dismantling them.

But capitalism has to go with them. Because as it is, the owner class already enjoys a borderlees world, while manipulating those borders against everyone else.

Borders exist solely to maintain and enhance the power of a nation state's elite. If a people allow an elite class to rise without check, borders will always be inevitable.
