@Justicar Isn't it a shame someone needs to ask? I think the problem is we're too interconnected. Back in the day, the biggest group you were a part of was probably a forum of some sort. Dedicated servers abounded with people who gave a shit running them. Now everything's centralized, fake, and gay.
@Justicar The same could be said of the peasants. Whereas before you had fewer, more self-sufficient and individualistic-minded people, now you have an insane amount of worker drones all living on top of each other, fully dependent on the system they'll protect even if it robs them of their freedom.
There is simply no way to rule over so many people, without an AI-driven technocracy.
Big numbers are the issue and as always, the answer is massive depopulation.
"Passenger destroys American Airlines counter with hammer after scammer sold him fake ticket". Imagine having such low intelligence and impulse control that you behave this way. Of course he's African, but still.
