One last thing.

I think that this way is also less violent than the original AP, because after adding on list the name of all the politicians, all the policemen, all burocrats, after few deaths, no one will ever want to continue to work for the state, at least no one of the low grade state employees.

No one of them is paid enough to risk their life daily.

So every authority will find himself powerless, without anyone available to get his orders.

The state will probably disappears after few deaths.
