State governments telling Feds to fuck off is a very positive and needed trend.

The ripple effects of the collapse in social trust mean a collapse of centralized authority and a reversion to more decentralization. People trusted a few megacorps to control the internet and its infrastructure because they all accepted gentleman's agreements to not abuse their power. Now that everyone's abusing their power and everyone knows everyone's abusing their power, I expect local authorities and power brokers to consolidate their own infrastructure so they can't be remotely cut off. Something similar happened in the Roman Empire, when Emperors were constantly being assassinated and nobody could count on the centralized government, so local authorities seized more power to pick up the slack.

@ArdainianRight @monsterislandcolonizer One of the things that dipshits believe is that the federal government should be more important than the state government, which is false, they believe this then will vote horrible people in their own state but will vote a different way in the federal elections. This mindset goes back to Lincoln who fucking waged war against his own nation to keep it from splitting off into separate states. m.youtube.com/watch?v=-pZG7snE7tU&pp

@Dicer @ArdainianRight >The collapse of social trust leads to a breakdown of centralized authority, prompting a shift towards decentralization. Previously, people trusted large corporations to manage the internet because they followed unwritten rules to not abuse their power. Now, with widespread misuse of power, local authorities will likely take control of their own infrastructure to avoid being cut off. A similar decentralization occurred in the Roman Empire when instability weakened central governance, and local powers took on more responsibility.
>This passage highlights the tendency for decentralization when centralized power becomes unreliable.
