RE: Metaverse: The Replacement For The Nation-State

in LeoFinance4 years ago

Unfortunately we are still physical beings with physical needs and have very vulnerable young who the nuclear family cannot protect on its own.

This is why humans have always formed larger groups (first a band of a few families, then tribes then nation states) and all the amazing stuff you talk about is limited by this fundamental facts.

How are you going to protect your physical body and children from people who haven’t bought into this meta verse stuff and use physical force to steal your stuff and crypto keys.

The fact is that you have to pay for protection. That’s what taxes are: protection money.
That’s what government is: a protection racket.

But there is no way to avoid it given our fragile physical bodies and method of reproduction.

Sort:  

That logic is what was probably posed by those who said a wall was need to protect us? Ironic something that is still posed.

if you believe things will be the same 50 years from now, then your point holds true. However, with each generation that dies off, we see change. Those that do not will end up falling so far behind they will be in the stone age.

As more governments collapse, it will set off a domino effect that goes spans the globe. We are looking at probably the turn of the century before we see the larger ones replaced.

Mate, you need to get acquainted with ... history. And to believe that "this generation" will be the first to overcome all the ills of humanity requires a level of delusion that's hard to articulate.

Just thinking differently won’t save you when a group of people come and try to murder you and your children.

Then you’ll need that wall.

Seeing as there is a group of people who are trying to kill me and my family and were firing missiles with huge explosive warheads at my apartment only a few weeks ago, I’m glad for all the walls and Iron Domes I can get.

I’ll pay the protection money required to be protected from real enemies, just want the government to stick to defense and butt out of everything else.

While living in the USA I can understand that you think the government is the only real enemy, but rest assured there ARE real enemies out there.
