The unfortunate recent mass shooting in US has prompted new debates about gun laws, however it will also lead to tighter financial compliance laws.
Bobbling technologies such as crypto-currencies which seek to opaque the financial activity will only come under more scrutiny.
In this report we will look at the root cause of terrorism. Grab a drink, you will need it.
Freedom: the quest for more of what?
Every anarchist keeps on saying the government is enemy, forgetting the fact that the government is a basic societal utility which is run by human beings, not gods from above.
The waves of moral relativity has meant that no one type of government can satisfy the masses as every single individual is in for their own interests only.
Freedom is just becoming the quest for more human and animal right. Rights to do what? There is no clear path as every just want more freedom.
We we organize campaigns for financial autonomy, privacy and access to guns, you will find people joining the campaign with different motives.
Some simply want to have freedom to be able to do just about whatever they want.
Terrorism: the inevitable result of moral relativity
Only when we do have a firm a definition of collective values as a society can we declare something as "good" and something as "bad".
However, in the current era of moral relativity and entitlement, it is impossible to not only to define what should be good but also impossible to get people to accept it.
Everyone feels they should decide for themselves what they want to do and entity which tries to tell influence them is accused of having an agenda: government, religion and parents.
When the government tries to do this through law enforcement, anarchists see it as a form of slavery and colonialism. Then, when others do things which are "extreme", the same anarchists cry foul.
If we are all entitled to do whatever we what then no one should be charged for being that does not suit us - the idea of moral relativity is that one's it makes sense to the perpetrator, then it is RIGHT.
So, if terrorism feels right to some group of people, then they have every right to do it and no one has the right to tell them otherwise or to attempt to sanction them for doing what they want to do.
These obscure ideologies are the basics of moral relativity and progressivity - we need to wake up from this.
Where do we draw the line?
Unfortunately, not everyone wants anarchism for the "right" purposes, yet in the current progressive society, it is impossible to define what is "right" and what is "wrong".
Absurd moral relativity philosophies are killing what collective morality stands for. Today, every gets to define for themselves what is right for them and no one has the right to even suggest to them otherwise.
In such a society, no one gets to draw the universal line between good and bad. We have created our own doom and fate, and our immaturity is what has caused the government to become a necessity.
Survival and the need for Society and Governance
Human beings are social animals and that means we need each other to survive. There is a saying;
If your are not setting on someone's toes then it means you are still on standstill.
As social animals we do NEED the society to survive. Anarchism and living in basements as cyberpunks will NOT works.
We need to work together as a people and love and respect one another. Unity is strength! Just look at the crypto industry, it is going no where - and its only Blockchain technology which is going somewhere.
Look at Coin Base, they made Bitcoin a household commodity not because they were hiding in basements and living as offgridders, NO. CEO of Coin Base made it clear that they decided to embrace legal compliance instead of fighting it and that is how they succeeded!
Look at Bitcoin in Japan, Bitcoin is doing well in Japan only because the government and the crypto community are working together - not against each other!
The current state of the crypto industry reflects the biggest flaw of anarchism which is that it causes more individualism than collective effort.
This individualism has led to thousands of altcoins, as everyone feels they should use their own coins and do not trust any coin made by someone else.
Instead of Blockchain technology eliminating the trust factor and allowing us to work together with each other, it only served as a tools to be used to further divide us.
When this continues, every single human being will have their own crypto, and everyone will use their own cryptos. Obviously it would be a disaster.
As a society, we will definitely need a government to rule over us. Our current democratic settings are the best we have, as we get to decide who get to enter the government.
As adults, we must grow from self centered attitude we had as children, or else we will continue on this path of individualism.
Blockchain government: getting over the madness
Blockchain Rush( @BlockRush) loves Blockchain technology more than words can say. We have even published a book(Bitcoin Effect) with @CoinSheriff about how Bitcoin's Blockchain technology will transform finance, economy and establishments.
However we must also face the reality, Blockchain CANNOT replace government. Anarchists keep on advocating for this but it will only result in the destruction of the human society and race.
Human beings are human being and we need human beings to rule over us. We cannot put machines over us. In that event, it will only result in the countless dystopia movies where machines rule over society.
Blockchain technology is a great servant but a formidable master.
It would be impossible to reason, negotiate or influence a machine government and any attempt to change the code will be termed as terrorism or a coup.
In such a world where privacy and anonymity thrives, people will abuse the laws and do their worst.
Humanity: a fallen race
The human nature is not "good" be default. A children we are self centered and irrational. As adults we become even worse.
Without the law there would be disaster; we still need the law. Look at The Purge movie series. This movies shows the human nature at its fullest.
As children we need our parents discipline to guide us. As adults we need the law to incentive us to do what we already know to be right.
As a society we need to take a stand and define our values and cultures - not become lost in moral relativity and progressive liberalism.
Progressing positively: yes, we need to take a side!
The current trend of purposeless progressiveness which is termed as liberalism will not take us anywhere. We must still decide what our core values are as a society and we must support those values.
Simply opening up our society to support just about any new ridiculous secular trend propagated by any group of people is not intellectual - that is being a sensational society with no roots or purpose and which just get blown into any direction.
When that happens, we cannot blame the terrorist who go to the extreme extends, for doing what they feel they are entitled to.
In the same ways, we cannot blame those who demand a formal society and demand to enforce the law, for creating a police state.
We must get over this madness of entitlement and learn to compromise some of our fantasies for which we demand certain right so the collective well being of the society can be intact.
The compromise called Social Contract
As we have already said, as a society we will need a government to rule us. The governors are not aliens from planet Z, nor were they chosen by religion. They are human beings just like you and me and we are the same people who actually voted for them!
We cannot sit back, make ourselves ungovernable and then accuse the government of being harsh. The govern will have to take a stand, and not all stands will please everyone - that is not the government's fault.
If we ask for weapons, then abuse them through high homicide crimes rates and finally the government takes them away, it will not be the government's fault or a part of some grand conspiracy.
If we make ourselves ungovernable, definitely the people we put in charge of the government will use more force so they be more effective in doing the very job that we voted for them to do - for which if they failed we will be the same ones calling for their heads!
Human beings are impossible to please; the govern is supposed to do what is best for all, not try to satisfy every single individual.
We need to give up our fantasies and the absurd right associated with them so we can live in a reasonable society.
Anarchists must compromise and actively take part in government to influence it; likewise the government must compromise and listen to the anarchists.
Both parties are trying to do the right thing - its just that they have trouble agreeing on what the right thing should be. In such a case it will be wiser to cooperate than to fight each other.
What do you think?
It has become appallingly obvious that our technology has exceeded our humanity.
- Albert Einstein
Excellent article, it's almost exactly in line with what I have been thinking lately. Government is not in most instances an oppressive force, but simply a construct of the people that helps each of us live. Abolishing it would not be a net positive.
glad you agree, we all need to unite - the government and the anarchists. the government is made up of people who were voted into those positions by us. if we have a problem with their activities then we will just have to change then - not stand against the government.
currently the anarchist front itself is more divided than the government side. we will all need to untied and compromise to work for each other's good.
life is too short to waste it on conspiracies, suspicions and hatred
I don't support all your assertions but you make some good points. I appreciate that you took the time to do a thought provoking article.
thank you for appreciating my work despite not agreeing to all points!
