If you correctly understand that the goal of the state is to propagate and empower the state, then you also understand why vigilantism is far more problematic than murder. The violent death of a random individual could almost be seen as a victory for the state, which now has cause to demonstrate its power. Vigilantism, on the other hand, represents a usurpation of the state’s power and a direct threat to state authority.
Anti-regime riots are the same thing. That’s why a relatively nonviolent riot at the capitol is resulting in life sentences while riggers who burned down cities are actually getting payouts.
I’m not quoting anyone as far as I know, but I’m sure there’s a lot of similar stuff out there. Sorry I can’t point you to anything specifically. These dissident spaces have been churning for decades, and it all kinda mixes together after a while.

This is a spectacular comment. Are you quoting something? I would like to read more.
