    Yeah, because it makes no sense. How can you support “all peoples of the world” when there’s class which divides said people and puts them directly in opposition with one another?

      I am of course not the OP but I would assume they believe that statelessness would somehow equate to classlessness?

        Maybe, the OG tweet to me reads like the classic cosmopolitan position that doesn’t concern itself with class and shows support for the things as they are found today (like the bourgeois equivalent of the international marxist position supporting proletariat as a whole but not nation states).

        Even then, you can certainly have class relations without the state. Nationalism is a relatively new concept, with the history of class society existing without it for thousands of years, and there also being nothing that would stop private firms from surviving without the state, with them taking on the tasks of the state business-wise (i.e. security, logistics, infrastructure) privately.
