this is just untrue, rights are social constructs, but social constructs are enforced socially. a state isnt required. can they be useful? sure gender roles are social constructs the state doesnt throw you in jail for wearing a dress as a boy. its enforced socially. https://twitter.com/MindWavesTV/status/1241642236653309952 …
So just vigilante justice? How does this not hit Ancap problems with arbitration & the monopoly of violence?

lemme ask: was it okay for black americans to use violence to achieve their rights when they state wouldnt recognize them, or when they were recognized but still prevented from using their rights?

Yes, according to my ethical philosophy they were/are. No one is saying that the State doesn't do bad shit. Just that it's how rights are protected & enforced on a mass scale. Black people weren't going to end slavery without a State backing them.
