Brandon King @brandonking.bsky.social · 07/08/2026I've always believed that we need to let the robots work so humans can live. Automation should be leveraged to handle production, distribution of resources, and the general administration of society, running passively in the background while humans focus on self-actualization and Becoming. 100
Brandon King @brandonking.bsky.social · 03/08/2026Free markets require competition. Competition requires that no single actor can dominate the market. But capitalism, left to its own devices, produces concentration of wealth and power. The wealthy use their wealth to acquire more wealth, to capture regulatory institutions, to eliminate competitors, 110

Brandon King @brandonking.bsky.social · 01/08/2026Liberation Infrastructure is the theory that anarchism becomes materially possible when technologically advanced, democratically governed, decentralized systems guarantee the conditions of life so thoroughly that both capitalism and coercive state administration progressively lose their function. 110
Brandon King @brandonking.bsky.social · 31/07/2026The Law of Inverse Sovereignty As individual and collective sovereignty rises through material abundance and decentralized access to the means of life, legitimate state power must wither in inverse proportion. Any authority retained after its coordinating necessity has disappeared becomes tyranny. 000
Brandon King @brandonking.bsky.social · 31/07/2026My imagined future distributes fabrication, energy, knowledge, and productive capacity outward until individuals and communities no longer need masters. Their future centralizes cloud infrastructure, platforms, identity, payments, logistics, and housing until existence itself becomes a subscription. 000

Brandon King @brandonking.bsky.social · 25/07/2026You are only as free as your neighbor, times eight billion. The individual cannot be free in a society that is unfree. 010
Brandon King @brandonking.bsky.social · 23/07/2026The individual does not rise against the collective. The individual rises because the collective conditions of life are no longer hostile to Becoming. That is the part a lot of people miss. They treat individual liberty and collective provision as opposites, when the opposite is closer to true. 100
Brandon King @brandonking.bsky.social · 14/07/2026Under capitalism the freedom to learn is locked behind the financial ability to fail. 000
Brandon King @brandonking.bsky.social · 06/07/2026Space means material room, housing, infrastructure, land, sovereignty, productive capacity. Time means liberation from drudgery, from precarity, from overwork, from the theft of life by bad systems. Put together, that is basically the universal substrate of flourishing. 100
Brandon King @brandonking.bsky.social · 05/07/2026Freedom is a function of infrastructure. You do not liberate people by passing laws that forbid oppression; you liberate them by building systems that make oppression physically, economically, and technologically impossible. 100
Brandon King @brandonking.bsky.social · 28/06/2026If anyone wants to know the difference between libertarian atomization and Eudaimonian sovereignty, capitalist libertarianism says you are free because nobody is obligated to help you. My worldview says you are free when the basic infrastructure of life no longer forces you into domination. 000
Brandon King @brandonking.bsky.social · 22/06/2026I genuinely want the Sovereign Home to be its own distinct class of dwelling. A normal home is a private asset inside the speculative real-estate market. An affordable home is usually a discounted or subsidized unit inside or adjacent to that market. 100

Brandon King @brandonking.bsky.social · 22/06/2026The Endarkenment's greatest success is convincing people that the Enlightenment was a historical period, an age we moved beyond rather than a living commitment. They have made it seem as though the principles of liberty, equality, and dignity were tried, failed, and are now obsolete. 120

Brandon King @brandonking.bsky.social · 08/06/2026Life extension without ethical transformation does not automatically create wisdom. It can also preserve pathology. Give the wrong people endless runway and they do not become enlightened. They become more patient monsters. 010

Brandon King @brandonking.bsky.social · 29/05/2026Civilization should not exist just to keep the machine running. It should not be a giant anxiety factory where the reward for surviving childhood is wage dependency, medical precarity, debt, rent, exhaustion, and pretending that this is maturity and just being an adult. 110
Brandon King @brandonking.bsky.social · 27/05/2026If the real marginal cost of survival is trending toward zero, then any system that continues to charge and manufacture artificial scarcity is not just unjust but irrational. 010

Brandon King @brandonking.bsky.social · 13/05/2026I was trained to see the state as potentially tyrannical. I just eventually realized that the solution isn't smaller government or more guns. It's building a world where government becomes mechanically unnecessary because no one can control your access to survival anymore. 000

Brandon King @brandonking.bsky.social · 02/04/2026Been arguing on the Fermi Paradox subreddit the last couple days. Even if humanity were late to life in the universe, the silence would still imply that the road to durable interstellar or galactic civilization is nearly impassable. But I think the deeper truth is that we are not late at all. 100
Brandon King @brandonking.bsky.social · 02/04/2026“We are here to survive, mature, and carry life into the cosmos” is a hell of a lot healthier of a civilizational story than “maximize quarterly returns until the biosphere dies.” 010
