At some stage or another, every mass struggle necessarily comes up against the obstacle of the state - the police, the army, the courts - institutions which, we are told, exist to maintain "law and order" in society.

This is why the ruling classes have always shrouded their bodies of armed force in whatever mystical, religious, or democratic garbs they can.
