Bad actors who abuse power often seek to delegitimize the structures that bind us together for their own short-sighted gain. Call them fascists or whatever pejorative you prefer, but the general anti-social bent in their behavior makes it clear that they can only truly be stopped by force. It's a shame these disputes usually end in catastrophic violence, but the aggregate behavior of humans hasn't been altered by technology, only exaggerated. |

It’s been my lifetime hope that there is another way through obsolescence and irrelevance. If a people have a self-sovereign mechanism for self-defense and economic participation, then the cost of conquering them is far greater than the extractable value.
