In addition to the recipe for freedom that I listed above (cypherpunk attitude, Bitcoin, Nostr and freedom + privacy tech), we must understand why things such as The Bolshevik Revolution happened and what would have prevented them:

- Decentralized food production so that we don’t run out of food. No need to ask for a permission to grow your own food or to support

- Guns so that we can defend ourselves against government tyranny and other criminals. No need for a license. In fact, much better that your gun is not on any government database.

- Small, self-sustaining local communities.
