At least your honest that you're driven by a hate of concepts instead of a curiosity driven by compassion.
Being against states is compassion. Because there is nothing compassionate in police action, centralization of power and borders.
Nothing compassionate? Really? You can't see any way that conditions could necessitate a police force? For example, a population of hundreds of millions of deeply traumatized people that commit acts of violence against each other as a symptom of their trauma which then perpetuates the trauma and threatens to subsume all of society in an arms race of psychopathy? You think you couldn't organize a police force to manage that situation from a position of compassion?
How about the compassion of borders? Without borders, your people can't justify defense against violent incursion from entire countries organized around sociopathic violence by deeply traumatized people. Those people won't even share resources with you if you don't have borders. You don't see a reason to potentially participate in that system from a position of compassion?
I'm sure your world is so much easier having a purity test like that, but it's not useful in solving the problem of sociopathic self destructive world systems.
