A thread summarizing "Sovereignism Part 1: Digital Creative Destruction"

My 12-part essay series explores the digital disrup­tion of the nation-state and the subse­quent amplification of individual sover­eignty during the digital age.

Let's dive in ⬇️

Statism is a system of socioe­co­nomic organi­za­tion which origi­nated in the Indus­trial Age. Statism includes all state imple­men­ta­tions of capitalism, commu­nism, fascism, and all other state ‑isms; it does not refer to these ideolo­gies in any pure sense.

Statist imple­men­ta­tions arose in the 20th century, when the only known mode of sustain­able human organi­za­tion was a top-down, centrally controlled nation-state.

In the 21st century, digiti­za­tion is devouring every ineffi­cient techno­log­ical imple­men­ta­tion: from media and dating, to adver­tising and travel. In the sphere of statism, digital tools are antiquating analog nation-states by radically empow­ering individ­uals.

20th century capitalism triumphing over commu­nism is the classic Schumpterian process of “creative destruc­tion,” where innova­tion obsoletes older and less energy efficient tools and systems, liber­ating energy for alloca­tion to other aims.

Tools are systems are similar. As a socioe­co­nomic system, capitalism allocates energy more intel­li­gently than commu­nism. Organi­za­tional wellbeing is maximized when individual sover­eignty is prior­i­tized. Capitalism did this well, but was hampered by state inter­ven­tion.

Stopping the alloca­tion of human energy into “manage­ment of” (more accurately, politicking over the power to manage) the money supply, mankind liber­ates his energies to construct more robust socioe­co­nomic struc­tures on the unshak­able founda­tion of immutable money.

Bitcoin is a momen­tous monetary innova­tion enabling a new mode of non-nation-state human organi­za­tion, a “purified” form of capitalism free of nation-state inter­fer­ence and deserving of its own neolo­gism—sovereignism.

Even more deeply rooted in free market princi­ples than statist capitalism, sovereignism promises to be an unrivaled allocator of energy toward the higher satis­fac­tion of human wants.

As an intrin­si­cally more adaptive, fluid, and volitional system for allocating socioe­co­nomic energy across space­time, Bitcoin-enabled sovereignism outcom­petes the closed-source, analog, and compul­sory organi­za­tion of nation-states.

Societies adhering to organi­za­tional princi­ples consis­tent with sover­eignism (broad indus­trial priva­ti­za­tion, debureau­cra­ti­za­tion, consen­sual taxation, Bitcoin, etc.) will generate more wealth than the command-and-control economies of more rigid nation-states...

...and attract more citizens. More compet­i­tive juris­dic­tions mean less toler­ance for bureau­cratic waste­ful­ness, and more wealth generation. As citizens wake up to this new reality, the modern obses­sion with state politics will fade into a relic of a bygone era.

Sover­eignists who rise to the occasion will no doubt be tested, as nation-states will fight back in an attempt to retain their tradi­tional powers over popula­tions. As The Sovereign Individual describes it:

Although this transi­tion may seem alarming and poten­tially chaotic, the end-game of sover­eignism is an explo­sion of wealth and a commen­su­rate human flour­ishing in the wake of nation-state disso­lu­tion.

Self-organizing digital organi­za­tions—like #Bitcoin—stand to become the greatest testa­ments to Schumpterian creative destruc­tion known to history. In the age of sovereignism, mankind will shed dependence on the nation-state and reclaim individual power.
