How would you guarantee my safety without a state? What would stop some group of people who decided to rape and pillage from doing so?

Who is stopping our oligarchs and their CEO lapdogs from doing this now?

Elites in fact rape poor people's children... Healthcare CEO pillage family's bank accounts if one of them has health issues?

You're evading the question. Please answer it.

They're not.

Who is stopping them now? Because if you say "the police", you're going to have to cite some sources. They not only don't stop anyone from being raped, they routinely side with the rapists, or even employ them directly.

Again, take a look at Haiti right now or Somalia 20 years ago if you think there is a difference in safety between living in a state and living in a place with no state.

And when you say "the police," the police in which country? Or are you suggesting there are no police in any state on this planet that stop gangs from running rampant through towns?
