The point of a Liberal state is that it's supposed to be a consistent kind of instability.
A Bicycle is not inherently stable. It is designed to consistently unstable so that it becomes stable only in motion. A football's spiral rotation does the same. Liberalism is supposed to keep power perpetually localized and shifting so that it's not possible to have a massive concentration of power.
The point of Liberalism is to keep the power of the state limited and conflicting, such that the state can't dominate society and cause a massive structural collapse. It just requires people to take responsibility for themselves and away from other public structures.
And this seems to be unavoidable, everywhere humans exist.
I'm tired of being involved in an experiment that we already know the results of, and being blamed for all of the past results.
I'd love to live in a liberal society. I just don't think they can exist in any sort of stable state for longer than a few decades at best.
