First of all, thanks that you took the time to reply with such an interesting comment. While i do understand what you are saying, and where you are going with this, i do not think it is a solution.
There always have been many problems with Tribal ways of living, even nowadays especially with what you call family tribes. The bigger the family/group the stronger the pack, And the more land, crop or food you can take from others if there would not be any form of state or rule of law. If that would happen, we would have a big change to go back to the dark ages, and then we would have survival of the fittest, strongest, vilest etc. And i really hope & believe that we as a humanity have overcome that part of our history. But often reality catches up with me there ...
While i am kind of a hermit myself, living in a very (sometimes even too) individualistic country, i do see problems with people living here that originate from more tribal society’s, which also brings problems, herd/pack based mentality vs the peaceful individual is a battle you just can not win. Just as you can not win as an individual or pack from a state (like you said)
I do believe that many people want a change, because deep inside we know we are not on the righteous path, but to many people are with their good ment actions, doing the bidding of the state. We still have a small timeframe to turn things around, though the window is closing fast, and while i believe unity amongst humanity would be a major leap towards the right solution, i just have to look around to see that each day we are drifting further apart
