More and more I've realized we don't need some new concept of society, ideology or system. We just need to get rid of debt money and let nature heal
the answer is most likely going to play out over 100s if not 1000s of years. We will see the beginning of commonplace smart contracts and private solutions, but not much more.

Why exactly? We’re already living in a freer world. We overcame aristocracy, monarchy, and fascism, have established special economic zones, and are already building the first private cities. Anarchism is a relatively new concept, especially anarcho-capitalism. We are increasingly building the tools that make the state more and more obsolete. This begins with things like privatized money (cryptocurrencies) and independent news and media. I’m sure it won’t happen within our lifetime, but we are already on the path toward anarchism, while the concept of the state weakens over time and fewer people will be dependent on government.

good to ponder this one—thanks for sharing I wonder about: The ones that will still push their agendas. Can corruption be dissolved in this lifetime? Can people separate from church and political sides? What does duality look like in this world? Will we see that “sides/teams/groups” keep us a part instead of whole—people being, human BEings ♥️🌀

this is how the US is supposed to be functioning, but the 14th amendment has created a legal-fiction overlay that has confused people into believing they are "citizens" instead of "nationals". Everything pre-14th amendment is pretty much UCC contract law

Ah yes you want an explanation why utopia doesn’t work? Well maybe look for the same mindset used for communism. This video paints a picture that is pure fantasy and wishful thinking with zero ground on reality. Show me which society has even the barest foundations of this and how it could be implemented. Yeah I don’t think so.

I assure you what we have today is not “better”, for any definition of better. In fact if I can remember in my own lifetime I was freer before the internet than after it, this proves times before the industrial revolution were even freer, because of the lack of overarching control structures facilitated by technological means. The problem is belief in “systems utopianism”, same as communism, no system will solve freedom. There is no utopia in this world. We keep getting blinded by ideologies that disregard reality and place themselves as objects of worship. “If only we can all get along”, “if only all things were privately owned by people of goodwill”… it’s naive in that regard, but maybe it’s better to just call it wrong, because the presuppositions are false.

No, they aren’t. Even during the Industrial Revolution, people had fewer freedoms, especially fewer positive freedoms, which are important as well. But I really don’t know what you mean by the term utopianism. Building a small community without a government isn’t a utopia. Applying that idea globally might be but that’s exactly why I’m open to a world with different approaches. Some societies could have a government, others could live without any control. I don’t see why this shouldn’t work.

Horses and lancets make for overarching control structures just fine.
You’re being condescending and have already made up your mind. Do you honestly think coming into the comments with a “I’m the smartest person in the room” energy is gonna yield a fruitful discussion?
The team that pulls together, can stand proudly apart. That is what bitcoin, rules, not rulers is proving to be. The journey of 1000 miles, begins with a single step, or you can continuein the status quo and lick the boot of the "elites". image
Yes I am being condescending because the low leves of society will always need ruling, and the error of happy go lucky anarchism is thinking everyone is just like yourself, industrious, self-driven and respectful of others. People are different, and some need the boot to function in society. Most blacks are lower than most whites in that regard, for one example. You will have to select the people that live in your anarchy state, and you will have to deal with the undesirables for your group, which will develop into your police versus their police.
Would be better to be honest and list the shortcomings of the idea so people know what they are buying into. If it’s an infant idea that has not be thought through, state so.

I respect that you finally explained your reasoning. But you’ve been condescending because you know this opinion is too wild to be discussed seriously
Good in theory, but will be challenging to implement as it would require all parties to accept it as the norm

A Private Law Society. How can we have communities free of oppressive governments?
