Did I give some indication that I disagree with that idea? Lol

I find that “recognition” is just a tool that powerful nations use to oppress less powerful polities. That’s why I am arguing against it.

There’s no contradiction between this argument and anarchism. As I said elsewhere in the thread, I don’t believe states should exist. But giving the US, China, and other imperial powers the right to decide which ones are acknowledged or dismissed is part of the problem.
