You raise a compelling point—and decentralized democracy doesn’t necessarily disagree with the value of strong, autonomous individuals. But it does challenge the idea that such individuals exist prior to their social context.

Instead of starting with the individual as an isolated atom, decentralized democracy asks: what actually constitutes an individual? It suggests that autonomy emerges from relationships—especially through one’s relation to property, expression, and influence. These aren’t just things an individual “has”; they’re co-shaped through interaction with others and the world.

In this view, society isn’t built on individuals—it’s built through the relational processes that allow individuality to emerge in the first place.

The concept of a Majorana particle based quantum computer is very cool, however the claims of MS on their accomplishments are dubious based on the data they show.

Take the latest publication, looking for a spectral signature of interference is the most basic aspect - ultimately you would want to be able to control and check the phase information of quantum particle in an individual and time-resolved manner. In a sense, this is what a topological qubit would amount to. Claiming topological qubit without any supporting evidence makes the paper and claims fragile.

MS will have to show a lot more to overcome the reputation they have built since the first papers were retracted from 2017-2018.
