To the Greeks this alone would be a refutation.

"Politics: that's the religion of today, that's the cancer that annihilates every possibility of community & puts an end to every period of ferment. This deformity divides & multiplies precisely during periods of ferment. Because it's unnatural it outruns our natural development of capacities. It plants itself at all intersections long before we reach them. Political militants are its missionaries. Committed intellectuals are its priests. The state is its church. Like all religions it transforms the human community into a herd. It's agents, the organizers & pedagogues, are the spiritual leaders of flocks of animals. It grows, like its biological analogue, inside the very body it attacks. It reproduces itself within the living members of the human community, extinguishing them as living beings, annihilating the very possibility of community. Its instruments are the entire armory of life-destroying gadgets devised by technology, everything that can serve to police a herd, from bombs to walkie-talkies, including the newspapers that proliferate the words & the loudspeakers that magnify the voices of the high priests." - Fredy Perlman "Letters of Insurgents" (1976)
