Enjoyed the episode. The discussion about Peter Theil and the crypto-tech feudalism concerning full deregulation and free trade zones got me thinking....why don't we use the same jargon for our own purposes such as states rights, safe harbors, open source communities. This matches my advocacy of gated/secure, self-sustaining, mutual aid communities where thru de-regulation and libertarian-conservative values (their own jargon) we can incrementaly and organically build alternative villages. I also support the tracking of the fire hose of egregious incidents and resistance/reform efforts. Maybe we could take this a step farther and link ALL those who have been harmed by Trump/Musk/DOGE so we form what I'm calling the Coalition of the Harmed. I compare this to a school yard where a bully torments everyone and one day he finds himself surrounded. Kind of like how all the damaged toys finally fought back agains Sid the evil kid in Toy Story. In sum, we need to unite them, help them and make sure they vote and join the movement. I liken this to the way Tammany Hall operated in NYC back in the day (of course without the corruption!)
