I truly believe there was nobility, another potential cope, in trying to create systems that acknowledged our shared humanity as something exalted, even if in practice they were woefully deficient.

Charter cities. Peter Thiel. This isn't scientism anymore; this is thelema. The concept of justice is utterly flawed in purity, and I'm aware how close I am to flirting with coopting utilitarianism for lingering religious impulses, but when you look at what's coming, do you want to be associated with it? Do you want to live in a charter city where the whole of the law is Do As Thou Wilt? And maybe you do I donno. I wish I had more time for this but I have to go.
