If you want to know where all this is heading, take a look at this excerpt from the Anarcho-Libertarian Bible "The Sovereign Individual". Basically, these oligarchs want to return us to the days before democracy, when they could rule over everyone like feudal kings. #NeoFeudalism - ThreadSky

Whose father wasn’t writing about the crypto libertarian apocalypse in the 1990s? 🤷‍♂️

In 2020, the book was reprinted with a preface written by Peter Thiel. Scary.

If they want ‘Anarcho-Liberty’ they will find it bites their heads off. For a while they can hire security but sooner or later you’ll get the situation like in Russia with the siloviki.

I know someone who, as a fill-in job, worked for a firm that did home improvements for London’s mega-rich. He confirmed that entering their mansions was like entering an independent country, with airport-style security and guards everywhere who, in some cases he was convinced, were armed.

We will not accept austerity.
If crypto or other spivs scams are used then when land, property or services are bought, tax can be collected at this stage.
We will not forget the politicians who erode our democracy.
“Cognitive elite” - 🤣 that’s funny. we have easy targets like Moggy & Trump 🐔

Because taxpayers do not need roads etc.🙄

This is chilling... "Lacking their accustomed scope to tax and inflate, governments, even in traditionally civil countries, will turn nasty... Governments will violate human rights, censor the free flow of information, sabotage useful technologies, and worse" - https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Sovereign_Individual

"In 2020, the book was reprinted with a preface written by PayPal co-founder Peter Thiel." .... says everything.

Genius will be unleashed, freed from both the oppression of government and the drags of racial and ethnic prejudice. In the Information Society, no one who is truly able will be detained by the ill-formed opinions of others.

It will not matter what most of the people on earth might think of your race, your looks, your age, your sexual proclivities, or the way you wear your hair.

They want all the benefits of "the social contract" without any of the responsibilities. Childlike.

Note the "sovereign citizens" bullshit at the end.

Technology will make some jobs redundant but how do these people think they become and remain so wealthy, if they aren’t required to invest suitable proportions of their income and wealth in the public infrastructure that educates and maintains their employees and allows them to travel to work etc?
