I never said this, what I said is that is that societal figures of power exist with a benevolent purpose and should not be perceived as evil.

The system of checks and balances on the power of the state can be seen in two lights: 1) as a way to prevent tyrannies from arising or 2) as a way to let the good actors freely act within well defined boundaries.

I simply believe the second point of view to be much more fruitful and stable.
