My approach to Governance is to study some of its extreme cases, to understand the weapons used and how to create a parallel society that counteracts the evil that is creeping relentlessly towards us.

The current regime in North Korea may be worth studying. The Kim Dynasty dates back to 1948 and is still in power today. 76 years. What makes them successful? FEAR, TERROR AND LIES.

1. No internet.

2. Controlled propaganda.

3. Land confiscation.

4. Controlled food distribution.

5. Kim Jong-Un is God.

6. 51 levels of society under 3 umbrellas a) The elites. b) The Useful Idiots. c) The doomed.

7. Broken infrastructure eg limited electricity, dilapidated transport system, poor hospital facilities, education system limited to propaganda.

8. Limited movement - for the doomed - they remain in the village of birth.

9. No money.

10. Forced to watch public executions - this includes toddlers.

11. A weekly reporting session - on what your sibling, parents, relations, friends, colleagues said or did against the regime. Punishment on differing levels are meted out - political statements against the regime attracts severe results.

12. The regime has a database on every individual including the elites, their connections, their family tree, going back to at least three generations .

13. No mobile ph.

14. Surveillance cameras.

The result : A regime that has total control over every aspect of the citizens life. A quota system within a measured timeline ensures - no slacking around. Punishment and executions are a regular event.

The doomed are designed to exist as a workhorse from birth to death.

The Useful Idiots - are the enforcers. But even their lives are hell. 10+ years are dedicated to border control, enforcement , distrust of their colleagues. Their pay is minimal. Their food even less.

The elites are only tolerated at the whim of Kim Jong-Un. Their executions are designed to create mental trauma on a grand scale.

For verification - there are many - start with Yeonmi Park - escaped from North Korea - aged 13.

Whitney Webb - independent journalist - WEF, Geopolitics, alternative lifestyles.

Alex Goldstein - Human rights activist, unravels the IMF's predatory lending practices.

Governance is based on trust, truth and credibility.

Western society currently have the following tools that we, take for granted. But for how long?

Internet.

Mobile ph.

Private vehicle.

Access to food, water, shelter.

A bank account.

Alternative media.

Fuel.

Energy.

A social welfare system.

Bitcoin.

Perhaps governance should have similar properties to Bitcoin:

Define the purpose of governance.

Open source code governance reliant on algorithm.

Desired result: No need to trust any human.

All participants become nodes on the network.

Desired result: Decentralised

A social uncensored media platform like Nostr to exchange data, including a payment system like Primal.

Desired result: Decentralization / Communication/Anonymity/ Privacy/Transaction facility.

This is hypothetical, with no substance, just a framework of ideas, keeping North Korea in mind as the driving force that could maybe help The Doomed, because I don't want to become one.

To those who took the time to read this - thank you. It means you care.

To those who bailed - I don't blame you. I'm just as scared.

"The program of right-wing populism includes 8 main points:

1) Radical tax cuts

2) Radical reduction of the welfare state

3) Abolition of privileges for 'protected' minorities

4) Crushing criminals

5) Getting rid of bums

6) Abolition of the Federal Reserve

7) A program of America First (anti-globalist and isolationist)

8) Defending traditional family values" - Murray Rothbard
