Rok, you are beating down some of the shit I've been waiting to see others discuss. You are touching onto the abilities of decentralization in ways much beyond how many simply see currency and identities. I love what you call this concept: "A Decentralized Mixed-Reality Justice Army" because that is exactly what I think it will be.
The biggest revolutions are not coming from blockchains. The incentive and anonymity structures offered by decenteralized economics are going to enable new types of governments and oversight. Prediction markets and a futarchy style government could could be mind boggling.
Will decentralization allow a vigilante society to prosper? I know these ideas are seeded; people like Robin Hanson have been thinking about them for a while now - now is the time when the technology is catching up.
Sometimes the truth is just too painful and people ignore it, don't know if the new crowd of PC people are going to be able to handle what's coming in the future, going to be some serious Butthurt, that's for sure!
The current invasion of Europe by "refugees" from the middle east and Africa is an attempt by certain parties to destabilize the governments of of the European nations. This is war by other means. There is an agenda behind this, what they think the agenda is depends on who you listen to, but there is a definite agenda by certain world players such as George Soros and Erdagon of Turkey.
The purpose of the tag is to explain how, on an theoretical basis, the corrupt control the flow of information that you as an individual make your own political decisions; critical thinking is key to that.
Understand biases, both your and the biases of your information sources.
Alex Jones "isn't always the bearer of 100% factual truth". Exactly. Sometimes the evil in the Deep State (or kakistocracy, or New World Order, etc) has made so many people distrust what they are told, that every conspiracy is assumed to be true.
Information War is not a term that Jones made up from thin air; it is a long used mode of warfare that has been studied and practiced for generations.
I invite you to participate in the tag, or just to check it out.
Excellent post, btw; I got so wrapped up in my response i forgot to say that ;>

made-up term for the sake of presenting an early-stage concept in somewhat relatable language, conveying the idea of a group of people fighting for justice.
if the concept were viable, no doubt its evolution would do well with an upgraded terminology...
I love how just when I was tempted to think how genius I was with this idea, you step in with questions like these and I start getting tempted to feel dumb again... lol.
truthfully, I'm not sure. I grasped the overview concept, though didn't get into details with definitions like this.
scanning over "Social justice warrior" on wikipedia, I'd say there are probably some key distinctions. i.e. though whereas wiki says
"a pejorative term for an individual promoting socially progressive views, including feminism, civil rights, multiculturalism, and identity politics."
it wouldn't be so much about ideologies as much as straight-out busting corrupt, illegal activity sliding under the radar.
or
"The accusation of being an SJW carries implications of pursuing personal validation rather than any deep-seated conviction, and being engaged in disingenuous social justice arguments or activism to raise personal reputation, also known as virtue signalling."
this really wouldn't have anything to do with personal validation or activism in the traditional sense, as much as establishing a sort of decentralized police force effective at catching crimes that the conventional system has been ineffective in addressing.
Very interesting post! I've thought about this as well. Alex Jones woke me up about a lot of things, but I'm with you, he exaggerates things to entertain people. These are grea ideas you have though, I think a decentralized currency is the first step to defeating these forces we're up against

You (rok-sivante)are right; fighting this evil requires action on YOU the reader's part.
You can't count on someone else doing the work for you.
Yes, it can.

deserve upvote and resteem...
What is a "justice army"? It sounds quite scary. It sounds like "angry mob".
made-up term for the sake of presenting an early-stage concept in somewhat relatable language, conveying the idea of a group of people fighting for justice.

How does it differ from "social justice warrior" or is it a different terminology for the same activities?
