Does nostr fix this? Depressing af:

"All of which is why we may soon be entering a golden age for truly psychotic totalitarian regimes. The Kim Il-Sung of the future won’t need an army of peasants expecting tile roofs if he has an army of killer robots, and ChatGPT is much cheaper than a full-time propaganda minister. Depending on how good AI gets, it will sharply reduce the number of people required to run an effective regime. In the limit, you can imagine a single mad king with no human servitors at all, just a computer as his grand vizier. There would be no limit to how brutal or crazy this guy could get, no limit to what he could do to his populace for fear of triggering a revolt amongst his own bodyguards."

They have no power if they don't offer a meaningful benefit to people in exchange for their taxes. Bitcoin stops their primary source of hidden taxation and power: inflation. Bitcoin fixes this by starving them off unearned energy taken behind the scenes in ways people don't understand. The future is bright!
