The problem is with people who outright reject the system. This is the difference between a low trust and high trust society. Burn it to the ground vs the Golden Age.
I'm currently trying to finish this dumpster fire... (video, not thread, but that's debatable).

My nature tests authority. Those who have exploited conditions to subjugate others proves the requirement of my personality type. That said, the authorities proven robust, deserve support...

I figured out the "embrace and amplify" method of dismantling stupid systems well before SA. Systems that encourage inefficiency should be maximally exploited so they collapse quickly. The robust system that emerges should represent a high trust society, because those systems are maximally efficient.

As I'm often saying, an ideal society would be some combination of US recognition of individual sovereignty, and Japanese group honor. The individual is sovereign so that they may maximally serve the higher purposes... The Exodus story is that the slaves should be freed; so that they can serve the higher order. To summarize; contain only as much as necessary, so that possibility for good can be maximized. Funny how every virtue has an equal vice.
