The worst punishment anyone could inflict on those who govern and police us today would be to compel them to live in a society in which everything they've done is regarded as embarrassing-for them to have to sit in assemblies in which no one listens to them, to go on living among us without any special privileges in full awareness of the harm they have done. If we fantasize about anything, let us fantasize about making our movements so strong that we will hardly have to kill anyone to overthrow the state and abolish capitalism. This is more becoming of our dignity as partisans of liberation.

Against the Logic of the Guillotine
Why the Paris Commune Burned the Guillotine – and We Should Too

Every word in this article speaks directly to my soul. I have no desire to burn down the world we live in yet every desire to try and help bring about the kind of world I want to live in: a kinder, fairer, more equal and – to steal a phrase from the piece – more joyous one for us all.
