    I genuinely believe people should live in small clades of about ~1000 people. They could be any kind of clade; democratic, technocratic, fascist, egalitarian, monarchy, dictatorship, etc. But essentially everyone has the right to leave their clade and live in whichever one accepts them.

    Why do I think that fascists and dictators should have their own clades? Well, because, as our own world shows – there is a significant proportion of our population that loves being told what to think, and who to hate. There might even be some benefits even (e.g. a culturally homogenous populace is more likely to unionize than a diverse one). If they want to vote in a despot, let them! As long as that despot can’t control more than the ~1000 people in that clade.
