While the total collapse of civilization more threatens today, it isn't anything new, and all the old reasons to be ready to move fast remain, as well. However, the right solutions to all the challenges we face today are social and communal. Control of our government, our money, supply lines of goods and services, security - in short, all the blessings of civilization - are up to all of us to ensure. Bugging out doesn't meet those needs. It prevents us from meeting them because there's a lot of different things that need doing, and we have to work together to get them done.
While the nascent tyranny that has been conquering the world in recent decades has put the pedal to the metal since Jan. 2020, this but more clearly reveals the proper course of action is to arrange to meet our needs without delegating anything to these vipers.
None of the good things we need to enjoy civil society are dependent on the participation of Hell Gates, George Sore-ass, or anyone else. Whatever your preferred poison is, humanity isn't dependent on them for anything. Society is competent to take up any slack the sudden loss of fat, psychopathic billionaires might engender - if there's any benefit from suffering their interference in our economies, health industries, or any industries at all. Seems to me their economic rapine only 'outbids' competitors for their roles developing resources and directing their application.
It's because of the WEF that Germany just shut down it's nuclear plants, and hiked the cost of electricity 45%.
Who needs that? Pretty sure any wino off the street could mismanage power provision just as well as the present administration. They could hardly do worse, anyway.
We really don't need those nuclear plants though. Today we can use cheap carbon based inks to print solar panels on recycled beverage containers and pave our roofs. Cheap. We don't need to suffer food supplies tainted with biocides, mRNA injections and durable toxins, or produced in inhumane conditions, or worse, eat bugs, lab waste converted into fake meat, or pay their prices. Nor do we need to suffer being subject to famine and starvation, if we grow our own food. Aquaponics is an inexpensive way to combine hydroponics and aquaculture to produce organic, pest-free, and nutritious produce and protein, and it's simple. 3D printers are capable of using almost every material known to ever have been used to make or construct things, and more, such as printing water out of thin air, printing living cells onto cellulose scaffolds, or even molecule by molecule to produce drugs, bespoke semiconductors, and circuits.
When you think about it, just those three technologies could provide almost the entirety of the goods necessary to provide not just what we need to live, but the services and circumstances we need to thrive, by making the goods necessary to provide secure communications, information storage and security, and political mechanisms secure from corruption. The problem with being represented is criminals seeking to prey on us can simply corrupt our official representatives to betray us, and boy do they! Well, we all communicate every single day using modern technology, and Hive is an excellent model that shows verifiable statements, votes, and financial transactions can be undertaken by ourselves, without the need for representation.
A nice thing about not needing representation, besides the impossibility of being corrupted to harm ourselves, is that all the noxious wokism we don't support at all wouldn't be ripping our social institutions, like families, schools, and churches, apart, because we won't push it on us.
So, that's how to fix the problems pressing most, and for those of us that can manage to be proactive and take these steps without needing to be starving first, we can have that security as soon as we adopt these means of production. As an added bonus we will also eliminate oligarch profiteering and taxable events. We can cut Kill Gates pay and our tax bill at the same time. We don't have to make everything individually, but must have our specialties and trade amongst each other. Societies work together to create the blessings of civilization, and empires imploding is how societies are destroyed. Society is the source of everything every empire supplies. We've got the wrong people - corrupt traitors that claim to represent us - managing our supplies of goods and services. We don't need them anymore, because technology has advanced and now we can discuss, vote, and pay directly for agencies we want, hire the people we want to run them, and approve or disapprove laws and budgets we pay for. Letting them do it for us just isn't working out, and we just don't need them anymore, anyway.
Politics and finance are broken, and the way to fix them is to make new ones. As long as we're dependent on the current models for goods and services, we will be vulnerable to catastrophic failures. By re-sourcing our supplies of goods and services before they fail, we will no longer need the broken system, and can quit supporting it without starving when we do.
As always, humanity needs to solve it's problems itself. We can see numerous examples in history of what happens to people when they wait until institutions fail to solve the problems failing institutions cause, and we can avoid those consequences by acting before more catastrophic failures harm us further. The best part of doing so is that it doesn't require a political movement, a new law, or massive demonstrations and the taste of billy clubs and tear gas.
Just take up a hobby, and encourage your friends and neighbors to do so too. Grow some food, print some solar panels, or bespoke personalized products you can sell or trade. Learn to code. Automate production, and add new hobbies that increase your wealth and the strength of your community. Whatever skills you have, whatever means of production are convenient, whatever amuses you most, you can take action unilaterally to improve your circumstances and your community's health and independence from corruption and democidal maniacs at large.
Problem solved.
