The ultra-rich already rig the system in their favor. Now imagine if they had their own nations to do it on steroids. No laws, no accountability, just a playground for exploitation. They’re not disrupting anything—they’re cementing their control.

They don’t want to fix society. They want to escape it—leaving us with crumbling infrastructure, inequality, and chaos while they retreat behind encrypted walls. They exploit resources, then flee. We pay the price for their selfish ambition.

History warns us: unchecked power leads to collapse. Network States are modern feudalism—billionaires as kings, ruling over digital fiefdoms while the rest of us toil in a system they abandoned. Once they get what they want, we’re left with nothing.

With their own digital currency, they control everything—who can participate, who gets access, and who is locked out. Can’t afford to buy in? You’re erased. No wealth, no power, no future. This isn’t innovation—it’s economic segregation at scale.

Each Network State follows a “One Commandment.” Sounds noble? It’s absolute rule by a self-appointed elite. The founder sets the ideology, and if you don’t comply, you’re exiled. No representation, no say—just obedience to an unelected oligarchy.

By claiming diplomatic recognition, Network States legally stash wealth offshore—starving schools, hospitals, and roads while they live tax-free. They exploit the system and rewrite the rules, ensuring public infrastructure crumbles while they build their own self-serving empires.

This isn’t about freedom. It’s sovereignty for billionaires. They set the laws, create exclusionary borders, and deploy private security forces to keep out the “undesirables.” If you don’t fit their mold, you don’t get in. If you don’t obey, you get thrown out

I can’t beleive concert tickets are like 6X or more the price they were 10 years ago. A 100s section used to be one something. Now it’s 6 something or more. A floor seat was possible for 3 something. Now it’s automatically 4 digits.

I maxed out my credit card, emptied my savings account, and took out a loan to move from Alabama to Bethesda, MD. I don’t even qualify for unemployment since I’ve only worked at NIH for a month. I will be financially and medically devastated.

Today, along with 2,000 other NIH employees, I had to clear out my office 😭
It was truly the honor of my life to work with such incredibly passionate people focused on improving human health. I’ve never experienced a more positive culture where *everyone* cared about their job and serving others.

What's Plan B if #PubMed gets destroyed?
There's lots of US-defined-inappropriate words in its massive archive of articles. Would be a great way to inflict pain on science.
