Governments are a bad idea. That's the root problem. People are stupid for thinking they need a government. You don't need laws. Laws are designed to oppress. Think in your own life how many times the law harmed you vs helped you... Europe, Russia, Ukraine, USA. These concepts do not exist; they are fictions... But the fiction can kill you if you believe it; just like a schizophrenic having hallucinations; those can kill.

If the fiction doesn't benefit you; there really is no incentive for you to believe it, and you shouldn't... You can be sure it's benefiting someone else. Do you want to die for the people who created this nightmare reality?

Fictions... that allow you to have clean running water, own personal property and get an education? If you want to see what life looks like without a government, just look at Haiti. Gangs fill the power vacuum when the government loses its monopoly on violence

		No, that's just what happens in Haiti.

You're just describing an alternative fiction with a lot less public buy-in, which from the outside looks about as plausible as the Sovereign Citizen movement that became infamous a few years back.

Organized groups which are created historically as opposition to another organized groups are bad idea or these are made up too?

Yes it's a bad idea. Everyone should just think individually; "is this fiction working for me personally?" If the answer is no, then you shouldn't support it. If the people from some other organized group which "threatens you" are so brainwashed that they think they benefit from their humongous group (when in fact, they're just treated as a meaningless, tiny number), then you may have to bare the pain of their idiocy for a few generations or so until their masters exploit them out of existence. It's an unfortunate situation. The sheep get slaughtered, but unlike sheep, you can't force the sheeple to breed; and they don't; deep down they know how miserable their existence is.

In reality, the group has little power over you as an individual. It derives most of its power from your own compliance. The compliance of others is a lesser factor in your oppression.

You don't need to believe in alternative fictions unless you created it. You just need to wait it out and pretend hard! Create your own fiction, exploit every loophole! Let the idiots realize their idiocy on their own and rebel on their own later once they realize they were fooled. You have to be a radical realist, wait it out and bare all the costs in the meantime. It's better to bare the pain of system dysfunction for decades than to go along with it and find yourself at the front of the firing line later, fighting against what you helped to create.

		>In reality, the group has little power over you as an individual. I'm sure everyone in Ukraine is delighted that the nightly air raids are a mere narrative device, and they can choose to opt out of them by pretending hard.
