    “State monopoly on violence” is literally one of the main definitions of what a state is - the entity with the monopoly on violence in a certain territory.

    If you reject the notion of a state monopoly on violence you reject the existence of the state itself. Which is philosophically a coherent position that places you in the long and storied tradition of anarchism.

    It also instantly marks you as an enemy of the state. Any state.
