I dislike the saying "the devil's in the details". It is the inverse of where the devil actually thrives - in the clever abstractions.
The beasts who rule this world are the banksters and their vast bureaucratic thrall. Their failing is these rulers have huffed their own degenerate anti-human messages for the past 75 years, have become deranged themselves, and now they've lost their attractiveness and persuasive power.
See what's gone almost completely by the wayside in their green agenda and lgbtqia+4g message as they struggle to cope and maintain their grip. Public, centralized AI is their great hope for control, but it won't survive the lawsuits and consumer protections that are coming. The banksters are 100% parasitical and headed for ruination.
The rules-based liberal order (liberal democracy) is quite real and has replaced any meaningful investments with speculative bubbles and rugpulls, put human life itself up for sale, and waged endless wars, psychological and kinetic. That's the brutal facts rather than beautiful abstractions.
All's well that ends.
Buddy if you think financial crashes were bad today, you should see what happens when banking is not regulated (great depression). Or, if you think war is bad today, you should see what happens when the world becomes multipolar and countries start carving up the world for territory (WWII).
Like please, read a history book.
I'm sure I agree with you that there are many problems with this system but life without it can get so much worse. The green agenda? 4G? That's the worst thing you can imagine?
What do you propose instead? Why don't the things that you condemn in "liberal democracy" happen there?
Actually, what you're listing above is just another set of beautiful (to you) abstractions. No, "banksters" are not "100% parasitical". The percent is definitely less than 100. But, you know, as they say: the devil is in the details.
