I was thinking as I read this that my husband and I will go to a family run restaurant 90% of the time over a chain. It follows with your theory, I think. Also, chain restaurants generally speaking aren’t very good... probably because they’re centralized and trying to appeal to everyone.

If we do this right all independent businesses that live by a moral code should turn into one big network and market together. Imagine 1000 small restaurants all praising each other and giving you reason to go there, because they are run as transparent swarms that follow the 5 principles of an ethical business.

When the people apply their God-given tenants of thinking and quit participating, i.e. voting and paying taxes, it would be over in one day. Don't know about you but this one does not require policy enforcement baby sitting. Adults need to grow up and remember their Godly origin to get back to nature and do no harm.

Our systems are tricking us. They convince us to trust them and then condition us to act a certain way. Our systems (education, spirituality, mindset, etc) can help us remember who we are.

The only way they can continue their corruption is by mind controlling the masses! I believe your ideas are brilliant and could save humanity! I tell everyone about you and hope they are becoming interested in participating in your group and want to join together with everyone to solve our problems and build a better we world! I can't tell you how much I appreciate all you are doing to brainstorm solutions to help stop the NWO and give us an alternative to it's evil agendas! Blessings forever!

I discovered the U.S. Department of Interior gave settlers written contracts (land patents) for unencumbered rights to their land in perpetuity ie, to those who inherit or buy the land forever.

I also found in my state’s voter codes that when one REGISTERS to vote. The registered voter is responsible for the county bonds. The county goes belly-up, they can take all your assets. Yes, even the clothes off your back.

I no longer pay land taxes or vote. I hope all you folks find your way out of local tyranny. Gotta start at your local level.

Never fear my fellow souls.

First "prented" (paragraph 8) is "pretend."

Love the decentralized water bottles explanation! Suggests ways to decentralize public schools short of homeschooling. Public schools have value when not corrupted into propaganda mills.

Not sure I'd put Bitcoin in the "decentralised" column at this stage...

Also, I do not think the reviews mechanism on eBay and Amazon is something to model on. I like the ethos behind it but without a mechanism which GUARANTEES the reviews are from real living breathing paying customers, it is worse than worthless.

I think something we forget in this age of globalization and homogeneity being pushed, is that we can all have different ideas of ways to exist, and that those can coexist to a large degree. a diversity of thought more similar to the law of diversity in nature. I think anti-fragile is oxymoronic to systems of power, to the internet, to money. That is the same ouroboros scenario as the current systems of power are facing. The crux is that... we don't need systems of power....period. control is an illusion, hoarding resources/economy/money is the illusion of control over one's future. The internet is an EXTREMELY fragile thing that we've created, because it is completely dependent on a level of infrastructure and energy consumption that we give it. It seems a lot more future-proof and sustainable to let all that take care of itself, and side-load a more equitable life alongside and mostly separate from. I'm fine if some people I know use Bitcoin, even if I also think it's a pyramid scheme by nature. I just don't myself. I don't think less of the people I know who believe in it anymore than I think less of those with different religious beliefs. I personally get a bad vibe from my phone these days and I need more and more time away from, silencing it, etc to feel ok. I get that maybe is an outlier, but it's valid for ME to want to not use technology as much as possible ☺️

We should be interested most in results. And solving problems with better systems. Better systems create better people. It’s the chicken and egg problem.

For the record, I'm not trying to argue, cause I like the idea trip you're taking with this society of problem solvers. I've always said, if carpenters ran shit instead of the politicians, we'd solve a lot of problems real fast cause that's what we do on site 🤣

We appreciate criticism. We have a culture of criticism here. Transparency. Independent thought. And testing ideas.

We can test the antifragile nature of decentralized systems. We can also see if collective intelligence swarms solve problems better for groups than voting. There is no debate, just experimentation. And results

I know Bitcoin *seems* decentralized...but it is still dependent on systems being there (electric grid, internet, whatever gov org regulates it). I think a much simpler, more local, and something we depend on EVERY time there is an emergency is... Sharing. An "economy" of decentralized sharing is impossible to corrupt.

...so instead of only sharing freely when people are desperate, we could aim to embody that empathetic and natural response of humans to help each other, all the time.

Yes that should be the culture. An independent alliance

Sure. But they don’t want to share. If we do nothing and The Corruptors use technology like Palantir and drones, we will end up like the American Indians vs the Settlers with the technology of guns. We should build antifragile systems of power, the internet and digital currency. Not run and hide from technology. We can’t.

For example, how about just a decentralized safe haven for whistleblowers? On blockchain. Evidence based. Like Wikileaks but more decentralized and transparent

As per your article, we can decentralize Network-centric warfare, back to the people. We have transparency and numbers on our side if we can figure out a system we trust. We think fully transparent collective intelligence systems is the path.
