You can’t abolish class society without abolishing the asymmetry between ruler and ruled. That means abolishing the state.

For another perspective on the Hungarian uprising, we recommend this annotated photoessay presenting the poem “Noretorp Noretsyh”—by the anarchist Kenneth Rexroth—as a series of graffiti installations:
