But every answer originates in consent.“We can underthrow the state one contract at a time,” writes author Michael P. Gibson.Real communities are the products of real agreements and actual social contracts—you know, the kind the people sign. If we’re right, politics, policy, and presidents won’t drive the next revolution. Technology, community, and subversion will.“Every innovation is an act of subversion,” writes Underthrow editor Max Borders.

We have to start new projects, write fresh code, and create new community protocols.
