Every 200 years or so there used to be a revolution(in the uk at least). For each and every one of those pushbacks against tyranny our constitutional law got stronger but at the same time the other side learned more about us too and how to undermine further attempts to reset the system. Common law in the uk has been all but forsaken and/or undermined. Because of this it’s now even harder to create the revolution that’s so overdue, and once digital cash becomes the status quo we are truly fucked(unless people are willing to revert to trading goods for services…)

I think you dead right to call out the old norm as it’s bullshit and riddled with corruption and oppression. Only way out that I see is an uprising/awakening.
