If it's a nation state, it's already not a democracy.

The idea that choosing which particular rich people sit in a fancy building is somehow democracy is quite funny.

Even Vietnam is now looking more to USA because they don't trust China anymore!

Vietnam (like so many smaller states) is playing both powers against each other to maximize their own gains. But they are tectonically unable to move away from Chinese influence.

I heard a quote from a Vietnamese diplomat that the US was a great mistress - it's very exciting, you can have a lot of fun. But when you come home, the wife is always there.

Vietnam won't divorce China.

Free will.

It's hard to accept, but free will is just not compatible with reality. It's like geocentrism. It seems obvious on its face because of our limited perspective, but nothing else in the universe makes sense if it's true. We live in a mechanistic universe and cause and effect doesn't suddenly stop when the atoms are part of a human.

I freaked out for about a week once I came to realize how much of our society is based on a scientific impossibility. Redesigning justice, ethics, healthcare, the very concept of blame, etc. to account for this is a daunting fucking prospect.
