Once again a very good article:) Unfortunately, the environmental crisis combined with the co-opting of civilization by corporate oligarchs under a new trans-national plutocracy which practices what I call institutionalized lawlessness has made the human condition upon the earth dire. There doesn't seem to be any way to stop this now as the whole political spectrum has been compromised while the changes necessary under this system are being handed over to corrupt mayors of the new emerging city-states under what some call agenda 2030. It's a disaster from the perspective of the city I live in and I suspect most cities around the world are suffering the same fate.
It can't be stopped now other than by nature or supernatural intervention as the plutocracy is wielding unprecedented military and technological power and the only force capable of resisting these powers in recent history was organized labor which the oligarchs shattered into a billion splinters in the last 70-years. They've done the same thing to religion, too, especially in the west so there isn't the religious scale needed that would be effective in resisting this agenda; in fact, the oligarchs have more control over religion than its ever had which can be evidenced by Christian Zionist's bombing Islam for Israel...
The Ancaps are right only in the sense that the only thing anyone can do now is to just try and drop out of the system in every way one can. This in no way makes Ancap philosophy a challenge to the present toxic status-quo.
