    Yeah, that’s true. Some people might actually be deluded enough (Peter Thiel fuck his name not googling it types) to believe in some sort of anrchocapitalism hellscape. Into which they’d instantly become enslaved by some massive Bezos Amazon slave factory (chattel slavery instead of the slavery of forced to sell labor for a wage). But I guess good luck explaining that to them… many seem to have the imagination of a 14 year old. They’re definitely not all stupid, just extremely naive and uneducated if they think a world with zero federal government will in any tangible way be better than this one. I know a lot of people want or joke about “going back to monkey” or back to feudalism style arrangements. That’s definitely not their plan though. They want something more like a Mad Max style future but they think they’ll be the robot guy in charge of water (spoiler: they won’t be).
