Have you considered exercising the right to found a new nation? Or exercising the right to peacefully revoke consent to be governed? Or perhaps abandoning preferences so that your likes/dislikes aren't so determined by capitalism?
- ericmay 4y ago> Have you considered exercising the right to found a new nation? Or exercising the right to peacefully revoke consent to be governed? Like as in have I considered actually doing it? No not really. As far as I know there's no new land in the world where anyone can lay a claim to. All of the world's governments have claimed all land in the world, so to found a new nation you have to create a new monopoly on violence for a given geographic area, and that's hard to do. > Or perhaps abandoning preferences so that your likes/dislikes aren't so determined by capitalism? So I don't see how this is connected to your other sentence. If you replaced capitalism with government then I think that would make sense. Bringing capitalism into this doesn't make any sense to me.
- chasil 4y agoThis is not quite correct. If you want to create your own county, there is one place where you can. There is an unclaimed area between Egypt and Sudan. https://www.amusingplanet.com/2018/02/bir-tawil-land-no-country-wants.html https://www.amusingplanet.com/2018/02/bir-tawil-land-no-coun...
