There are some good points made in this article. I often feel like the "crypto-community" is a little too pessimistic about human nature. I think we need to focus more on what the blockchain can do for us and less on what the blockchain can destroy.

Terrific article.  Especially like the reference to sci-fi novel Red Mars

Have I been living under a rock, or do a lot of people not know what a "techno-leviathan" is?    I have never even heard that term before seeing this thread...

I take it he did not read the sequels green mars and blue mars, where they after a grueling war beat the transnationals and founded a much better way of government and built their business-model on the mondragon system.
