    don’t buy into the illusion that capitalism is so self-organizing and organic. it requires the direct protection and supervision of a nationwide military and a police force -multiple police forces actually - to protect capital.

      I guess I tend to think that police, and power structures in general, are organic and will pop into existence spontaneously.

      (I actually think power structures are going to be important to maintain a socialist society too, just not ones that serve the few at the cost of the many.)
