"It is time to abandon the illusion that states serve the peoples. Nation-states are the fundamental pillars of the capitalist system (of capital owners and narrow power centers). To sustain their own power, they need the people, the worker, the unemployed, the army, raw materials, migrants, the family, technology, and ideologies that generate exploitation (nationalism, religiosity, sexism, and scientism). No people, especially forces outside power, can claim that nation-states represent them. Peoples know they are oppressed, exploited, and suppressed under power, yet due to the illusion that life without the state is impossible, they tolerate these usurpations of rights.
"As women, we have no state; as workers, we have no state; as migrants, we have no state; as indigenous peoples, we have no state. When we say we have no state, we mean there has never been and will never be, a state that represents us, protects our interests, or prioritizes our well-being."
