It's not illegal, but it's still weird, creepy and potentially harmful and no amount of lambasting about "the problematic age gap discourse" will make it not true.

But you didn't say "state bad", you said "government bad". Even in a classless, moneyless, stateless society there will still be a buerocracy that manages the Commons, and that institution will be called a government.
yeah but the convo shifted from govt to ussr and gdr, no? they were states. unless i misunderstood?
AFAIK the ML understanding of the State is that it's not the same thing as the government, although the government is a major feature of the State in most of the world. I would elaborate but sadly I'm a lib and haven't actually read State and Revolution.
Either way, I think we should read anarchists if we want to understand the state, not just MLs.
