Cameltoe of Class Struggle

A few days ago I was unpleasantly surprised to find a negative comment about the Bitnation’s constitution. A guy hanging out on the “Nanopunk Posthuman Assassins” group on Facebook (which is, by the way, moderated by the prominent novelist and AI guru Daniel Jeffries) proclaimed that all decentralization-intended communities are naive in general and the Bitnation’s one is toxic in particular. His argument refers to the class struggle in which all serious reformers are involved. He also mentioned the cryptowars (who knows what it looks like, please explain!) wherein we all will be fighting soon.

I thank this person very much for raising such important topics as the contemporary class struggle and the attitude to constitutions. No matter his reaction was negative. It is anyhow meaningful showing that this guy is really passionate and attracted to the burning problems of society, that he is not just a miserable cell of the powerless and faceless inert mass of the majority. Thank you, brother, again for your engagement!

As I mentioned, I was unpleasantly surprised not because of a negative feedback regarding MY community (I dare to call Bitnation mine since I’m a Bitnation citizen), but due to the sorrowful ignorance that keeps a lot of people aside crypto anarchy and decentralization.

A huge number of the active and intelligent people all over the world continue to believe in the adequacy of the so-called class struggle despite the fact that the social classification has changed beyond recognition since the days of Marx and Lenin. Be they withdrawn from the hell today to categorize the contemporary post-liberal society in classes, such strata as freelancers, remote programmers, and enormously sweated billionaires like Elon Musk would leave both creators of the class-struggle theory in a quandary.

The question is: why do many people appreciate their belonging to some certain social class? The division in classes is purely conventional and unable to offer something meaningful to the nowadays societies. The actual and fruitful struggle between, for instance, the contemporary outsourcing precariat and kleptocratic oligarchy is hardly imaginable. Even if the distinguishing between them is obviously clear and both groups have enough reasons to suppress each other.

The class division relies on faceless masses vulnerable to any kind of brainwashing, manipulation, and populism. Look around, lurk the history, and realize to what consequences the class struggle has led the humanity. Maintaining a balance between interests of social classes is just the reason of the Nation States foundation. Wouldn’t we rather refuse the classes as such in favor of the class-less communities?

Unlike the earlier generations of libertarians, we have a powerful toolkit capable of transforming society in a radical manner. This toolkit includes the blockchain technology, decentralization movement, and crypto-anarchic philosophy.

What is the precedent? Where should novices begin from?

Acquire Bitnation Constitution first. Being a truly enlightening and liberating document, it is worth your time and efforts. Then join the community and immerse yourself in the atmosphere of crypto anarchy. And eventually, you can come across some brilliant ideas and remarkable people. Just check the following quote about the constitutions from the book of the outstanding philosopher and techno-anarchist Spencer Ferri, who has joined Bitnation recently:

“…If a government in the modern sense is an establishment which unifies a nation by codifying normative values onto a shared speech act called a constitution which pushes its value top-down by a combination of reward, education and violence; then a true self-governing anarchy may have to begin with these speech acts of individual persons defining their own epistemic sense of self through a constitutional declaration of self.”

Incentivizing to reinvent conventional constitutions, this is what can undermine the very foundation of the old world order.

In order to possess the technical peculiarities of the crypto economy and not to feel yourself blockchain illiterate this great resource (https://blockgeeks.com/guides/) is worth searching from A to Z. And of course, social media channels contribute a lot to the crypto anarchy movement.

Hold off on TV and popcorn, involve yourself in a meaningful activity. Paraphrasing the old motto of the class struggle we ought to invoke, “Crypto anarchists of the world, unite!”
