This is so amazing

Yes, he did see it as situational necessity. You are correct. The reason the violence aspect is emphasized among political philosophers, is because contemporary theoretical anarchists (specifically those named in my article) do not believe in violence or struggle to dismantle or shrink the state.

I don't think we disagree, but you would prefer framing it away from words like violence and instead "dismantling", collective struggle". There isn't much difference, as a collective struggle against the state will likely be violent, as the state will most likely not go down quietly.

He didn't advocate for indiscriminate force, but specifically that use of force in service of deconstructing the state is permissible.

If you mean to imply Bakunin was averse to violence as a means, in his essay The Reaction in Germany, and both his works Statism and Anarchy and God and the State he frequently points at the inevitability of conflict, and that the state is to be abolished by force if necessary.

I believe you misquoted my article, because I did address that his focus is for the state to be replaced by worker federations. After the section you quoted, I then wrote: "Then— in the absence of a state, society is to be organized by a federation of autonomous workplaces and communes."

I support any country retaliating against the US with tariffs and would even encourage it. Trump has turned our nation into an unruly dog, biting at the other dogs in the dog park. The world needs to band together and put a muzzle on this dog.
