politic-adjacent, weird philosophy 

@body@mastodon.social My point is that while it's possible to derive it, there's no guarantee that it will be derived, or that having been derived it will be adopted or "enforced" (Which is really more like monitored/reported/rebalanced). Moloch still wins in any closed system in which discovery and widespread enactment don't happen, not because better isn't possible but because better never occurs to anyone or never gets the chance.

@body@mastodon.social Its not that Moloch is guaranteed to win. It's that Moloch's odds are really good without loading the dice.

Mind you, we have tools to load the dice.
