Take heart. Though the immediate transition we are now undergoing seems dire and apparently terrible, it cannot long endure. Institutional power must wither soon and vanish.
We will be free, wealthy beyond our wildest dreams, and lay the whole universe at our children's feet.
Honored senior, you are right. However, geopolitics in the United States and East Asia are different.
The United States is the only ruler who controls the entire new continent.
However, East Asia has militant and brutal empires of China, Japan and Russia.
They have waged many wars from the past to the present to take control of East Asia.
They are pushed by the power of the United States and are now maintaining peace. However, if the United States declines and collapses, they will go to war again.
Perhaps true peace will come to East Asia and around the world after Jesus comes.
While institutions like China seem too powerful to oppose now, this is because centralization directs massive resources from productive individuals to them. That flow of wealth is what decentralization stops. Without those resources, China, the USA, and all the Daibatsu will become starved of resources. At the same time individuals will dramatically increase in wealth - and power.
It is very relevant that possessing means of production allows producing modern security mechanisms vastly better than chemically propelled bits of metal, which were advanced technology 1000 years ago. There's much better means of preventing armed gangs from projecting force with firearms today than our stores sell, our media discuss, or our educations teach us how to use.
When we get nominal 3d printers, deploy mesh networks so we can communicate globally without being censored, use cryptocurrencies to facilitate trade between us without being parasitized or prevented by institutions, and CRISPR, aquaponics, and on and on, the billions of people needing to protect themselves from the corporations today seeking to put the population of the world under arrest by default, and make them dependent for every bite of food, good, and service they need, we'll quickly devise and share security mechanisms based on modern, cutting edge, technology.
It's reasonable to fear your enemies, but the cure for that never is to surrender to them. That only makes permanent your vulnerability. The cure for fear is security.
Take courage, and action.
thank you for advice.
