"From the time of Constantine there was an active alliance between the church and the political authorities. "The [State] supported the church, gave it preferential treatment, helped it in its undertakings and expansion, gave special and privileged status to its personnel, protected their persons and possessions, put the secular arm at its service, accepted its advice, gave it an important role in the state's deliberations and decisions, and supported the claim of Christianity to absolute truth. "The church in return had to support the secular authorities. It had to give them a part in its undertakings, become their public relations officer...

Democide – murder of people by a government which claims power over them – was the leading non-natural cause of death in the 20th century. And people are terrified of anarchism.

New HE microSD coming for the Ronin Dojo. I think the other one is on its last legs; it's having issues with Docker failing.

So they have a moronic neo-Marxist fascist vs. a moronic state-capitalist fascist as options for a figurehead ruler. The Empire, its military, its intelligentsia, its media, its corporations, the deep state, and its ruling class (1%) all win, and everyone else (99%) loses. The outcome of every cycle. Statist quo maintained. Then, they do it all over again with different authoritarian, bread-and-circuses options in another 4 years. (Make sure you have extremely acrimonious conflicts about which vision of social domination and imperial order is best.) Lather, rinse, repeat until you die. The Powers rejoice. Have fun voting... 😘✌️

"'The Net is an anarchy.' This truism is the core of crypto anarchy—no central control, no ruler, no leader (except by example or reputation), no 'laws.' No single nation controls the Net, no administrative body sets policy. "...This essential anarchy is much more common than many think. Anarchy (the absence of a ruler telling another person what to do) is common in many walks of life—choosing books to read, movies to see, friends to socialize with, and so on. Anarchy does not mean complete freedom (we can, after all, read only the books that someone has written and had published), but it does mean freedom from external coercion. "...Strong crypto provides a technological means of ensuring the practical freedom to read and write what one wishes to...And of course if speech is free, so are many classes of economic interaction that are essentially tied to free speech. "A phase change is coming. Virtual communities are in their ascendancy, displacing conventional notions of nationhood. Geographic proximity is no longer as important as it once was. "...We will be the colonizers of cyberspace." – Timothy C. May, "Crypto Anarchy and Virtual Communities" (1994) https://monoskop.org/images/4/42/Ludlow_Peter_Crypto_Anarchy_Cyberstates_and_Pirate_Utopias.pdf image

IMO The Yeshua movement effectively became comatose in the 4th century (Constantinian shift), was revived somewhat in the 16th century (Radical Reformation), then became comatose again in the 18th century (Great Awakening). We're just in the interim period for a few hundred years until another real revival.
