So tiring these takes from people sitting on their comfy Ikea sofas, never having lived in a place with the anarchic horrors of a lack of government.

What kind of horrors

Pick a part of the world where there more or less is no functional government and I'll customise the list for you.

I don't really know of any but possibly some places in Africa, and yes they are a mess. There aren't any long lasting examples in history either. My position is that it wasn't really possible at a scale larger than villages but technology changes that and new things are possible today.

So I guess you couldn’t think of one?

Because we’ve never had true anarchism and never will.

Most people in the bitcoin space don’t realise that Government is not a necessity, but an inevitability.

We have evolved as a dominance hierarchical species, it is neurologically wired within each and every primate, with the continual growth of technological advancement some form of government one way or the other is… inevitable.

Nope. Can't think of anything that might be horrific about life in a modern-day failed state.
