The problem was never who governs.

It was always what incentives the one who governs has.

Names change, parties change, speeches change,

but as long as power remains concentrated,

the outcome is the same:

more control, more spending of other people’s money, more impossible promises.

No “good” politician can escape a system

that rewards short-term thinking, debt, and coercion.

That’s why the solution is not electoral.

It’s structural.

Less central power.

More individual responsibility.

More permissionless systems.

More energy, money, and communication that do not depend on favors.

Don’t wait for saviors.

Build alternatives.

Bitcoin.

Real energy.

Open protocols.

Voluntary communities.

Everything else is theater.

Once you surrender your agency to be governed, it's very difficult to get it back. The main difference between cultures is to what degree they accept being governed.
