    If you need 150 words, just use Adam Smith’s definition of a state, it’s represents the reality that states are a governance structure designed to manage, uphold and legalize class distinction and exploitation

    Civil government, so far as it is instituted for the security of property, is in reality instituted for the defense of the rich against the poor, or of those who have some property against those who have none at all

    BUT it’s Adam Smith, so you can’t be accused of being a commie, perfect camouflage

      I used the definition from state and revolution 😔

      Couldn’t help myself. I’m graduating and leaving the state soon anyway.

      Granted, when I discussed class contradiction the example I gave was the contradiction between the landed nobility and nascent bourgeoisie (though I didn’t say bourgeoisie).
