For the individual wanting to break free of the unending sea of collectives and institutions contending for his soul...and more...put together by a Visionary Philosopher, so I've been told. Maybe you want to stay tuned to see if that's true... with notes on The End of the Nation State.
I have written elsewhere that the meme that
runs the show is authority worship – in any
manifestation – but the 2,000-year-old lie that
fuels the meme is that freedom is a subset of
submission to authority, that we are free only
within the context of the clan, upon the strength
(security) of the clan, by virtue of the clan,
and, therefore, through subordination to the clan
(from which all blessings flow).

High praise from a master curmudgeon, but I'll have to take issue with the last three items as I really don't pay 'em much mind. To quote Fred, "It's a design feature."
