This week as we observe global regimes increasingly lashing out in panic, we consider what it means to be a sovereign individual. The 1997 book by the same name predicted much of what we are seeing today, from the fragmentation of Canada, to the increasingly authoritarian behaviour of governments around the world as they desperately try to maintain their control over the monetary and information flow.
Really solid roundup here. The predictive power of that 97 book is kinda wild when placed against whats actually unfolding with govenment overreach. I saw this play out firsthand when governments tried tightening capital controls during covid. The decentralization angle isnt just philosophical, its becoming structurally necessary as traditional systems prove too fragile for modern information flows.

100% its wild that a book written in 1997 could have been so accurate.
