Gulliver’s Travels by Jonathan Swift
From [Wiki](https://ift.tt/hPlAUgy) – we read
>Broadly, the book has three themes:
>
>A satirical view of the state of European government, and of petty differences between religions
>
>An inquiry into whether people are inherently corrupt or whether they become corrupted
>
>A restatement of the older “ancients versus moderns” controversy previously addressed by Swift in [*The Battle of the Books*](https://ift.tt/kEGsYux)
Each of these can be seen as analogous to the Bitcoin Narrative – However for me the beauty is seen when in Lilliput our ‘hero’ Gulliver is seen as a massive superpower forming a centralised system.
This is easily dominated by a myriad self-sovereign free-agents (however heterogeneous and petty we may be) working in concert against hegemony
For anyone who hasn’t read Gulliver’s Travels – it is a classic fictional political commentary and addresses through powerful and satirical memes themes such as power, bureaucracy, corruption, free-will, misanthropy, misogyny, liberty and republics (in the true sense).
Highly recommended – Do your own research !
