All states are authoritarian. Where do you think all the authority comes from?

A state having authority isn't always a bad thing though, the current state is really great if you're a white male property owner!

And those guys won't be too happy if you take that state away from them, so whatever comes next would need the authority to resist that counter-revolution.

But that's authoritarian, so we should just let them take back over and keep doing the authoritarianism that supports their interests.
