Thinking governments don’t care is to idealize and anthropomorphize something that is merely representative of its constituency.
To conflate “all government” with “government that serves the bourgeoise” is wrong. Anarchism does everything in its power to avoid thinking materially about government, because if one accepts government has worked for the people, the entire ideology looks less appealing and rational.
But I still think Anarchists care deeply about other people and I can’t help but respect that even if I don’t care for some of the ideas.
It is possible to make the government serve the people. The problem lies in defending the positions of power from people with selfish intentions. CGP grey made a good video about this.
