Violence is the basis for all hierarchical authority, which is every modern day imperialist country.

You either bend to their order or they will engage in violence against you until you concede obedience.

Some have made concessions to those of the lower classes but fundamentally they still hold all the power of authority over who is or isn't "entitled" to access of basic necessities. If we ever buck that authority, the state will always engage in systemic violence against us to maintain that authority.

Ladies and gentlemen, we have a winner.

The only distinction is where a society draws the line on when violence can begin, and against who, and why.
