I’ve looked at a couple of other of these “network states“ and the thing that strikes me most is how similar they are to all other libertarian ideas: they only work if there is a functioning democracy for them to leach off of.

I saw some of the videos of the discussion of this and it’s highly dystopian. They think of the world like a video game in which they’re in charge and the rest of us are like ants.

7/ As for Joshua Steinman, he’s a former naval officer who served in Iraq and the first Trump administration. He’s the founder of Galvanick whose investors include Founders Fund (founded by Peter Thiel, another network state enthusiast.)

Rice, a disabled paratrooper working on radiation exposure at the Department of Energy, said the work he was doing made a difference.
“We’re just out here trying to do something that we actually believe in, that matters," he said. “I really believe that we’re actually out there helping people."

That was the year when Trump married Ivana Zelnickova, a twenty-eight-year-old model from Czechoslovakia.
Zelnickova was a citizen of a communist country. She was therefore of interest both to the Czech intelligence service, the StB, and to the FBI and CIA.

The document wanted to know: “Is he in the habit of having affairs with women on the side?”
When did the KGB open a file on Donald Trump? We don’t know, but Eastern Bloc security service records suggest this may have been as early as 1977.
