This is really long and I gave it my best shot, but from the onset it's intellectually dishonest.
Anarcho =/= "centralized authority is corrupt and evil"
He has redefined anarchism (no authority) to suit his needs and attached the negative connotation in his defining characteristics.
The paradigm, which he has missed, is that the blockchain IS the "state". The authority of the system is derived from its working mechanism and therefore does not require outside governance.
Citing oppososition from leftist progressives as surprising....? The group that demands the most compliance to ideaology and greatest support for expanding federal government? This isn't difficult mental exercise or requiring some contortion to find plausible. Their opinion is the obvious conclusion.
I find here further evidence that VC is a bunch of wealthy hacks hiring their smart friends to wax knowledgeable to the rest of us, lower cretins.
- fleddr 4y agoI once lived in such an extreme anarcho libertarian society. It was called the 80s. In that cash-based society, the government had no real idea how much cash I owned. I also had full freedom of transaction. Somehow taxes still got paid and crime wasn't really worse. Apparently, this is now a far right position.
