      Ownership is only achieved through violence, or the implied availability of violence. Collective or otherwise

      One can’t help but wonder if people here have sophisticated ideas on Proudhon, or just really no clue at all about anything.

        Are you talking about me or about the people up and downvoting my comment?

        I wouldn’t call my knowledge about Proudhon sophisticated and I’m not interested in him enough to investigate further. At one point, I tried to read the book where the quote is from, but didn’t get far. The introduction and the comparison with slavery is murder is the most important thing I think and after that, well, I really tried.
