    I think it’s okay to put opposing states higher on your priority list than opposing imperialism

    Out of curiosity, why? Imperialism operates at a larger and more destructive scale than individual states, and states cannot be dismantled while the machinery of imperialism exists. Imperialistic hierarchy encompasses the hierarchy of the state.

      States are a precondition for imperialism. Dismantling imperialist states means an end to both imperialism and the state.

      states cannot be dismantled while the machinery of imperialism exists

      Why? I legitimately can't think of any reason for this.
