Yes but then he said “buy more bitcoin than you sell.” Probably a leveraged time/credit move. He added a dimension to the same purpose, I don’t think he’s panic selling—I think he’s panic accumulating.

"The Art of Not Being Governed: An Anarchist History of Upland Southeast Asia" is a 2009 book by anthropologist and political scientist James C. Scott, published by Yale University Press. It explores how certain populations in the mountainous region known as Zomia—a vast area spanning parts of seven Asian countries, including portions of Vietnam, Cambodia, Laos, Thailand, Myanmar, India, and China—have deliberately evaded incorporation into lowland states for over two millennia.
Scott argues that these "hill peoples," such as the Akha, Hmong, Karen, Lahu, Mien, and Wa, aren't primitive remnants of pre-state societies but rather refugees and resisters who actively shaped their cultures, economies, and social structures to avoid taxation, conscription, slavery, and other impositions of valley-based kingdoms and empires. He frames this as an "anarchist history," emphasizing how state-making projects in the lowlands (like those of historical Burmese, Thai, and Vietnamese polities) inadvertently created non-state spaces in the uplands through processes of flight and adaptation.
Key ideas include:
- **Geography as resistance**: The rugged terrain of Zomia provides "friction" against state expansion, making it hard for armies or administrators to penetrate and control.
- **Agricultural strategies**: Hill societies favor swidden (slash-and-burn) farming, root crops like yams and cassava, and foraging, which allow mobility and make surplus hard to detect or tax, unlike the fixed paddy rice fields of valleys.
- **Social and cultural fluidity**: Ethnic identities, languages, and governance structures are often egalitarian, decentralized, and mutable to prevent hierarchy and facilitate evasion. For instance, oral traditions over writing help avoid fixed records that states could exploit.
- **State evasion as agency**: Rather than viewing these groups as "left behind," Scott sees their lifestyles as intentional choices for autonomy, challenging traditional narratives of progress where states represent civilization.
The book has been influential in anthropology, history, and political theory, sparking discussions on statelessness and resistance. Critics note it may overemphasize intentionality in cultural practices, but it's praised for reframing Southeast Asian history from the margins. If you're looking for a full read, it's available in print, ebook, or PDF formats, and Scott has discussed it in talks and interviews.” Grok

You did make the kill for peace argument: “It is one thing to be a pacifist, but it is another to realise and accept sometimes violence is necessary to achieve a pacifism .”
And it is that moral relativism that leads one to totalitarian thinking, assuming one knows better and treating people as means to an end because as Trump put it: “I had a strong feeling that they were going to attack us first, so we had to hit them first”. Justification without justice.
