I agree BM is deep thinker as we can see from his early essays. Tons of people in this community came here for the ideas, stuck around for the vision, and are only now beginning to appreciate the applications.
My own insight from sticking around here, and I am at the outset completely apolitical, is that we end up reinventing and improving a lot of the things that modern society has discovered more or less by accident, i.e. without a particularly principled approach or a problem solving mindset.
Just like we only now discover that photosynthesis exploits quantum effects to optimize efficiency, or that the brain organizes in free energy with predictive coding to maximize intelligence, we re-discover old things in a new light and improve on them: Inflation, voting, contracts and reputation will more and more be understood principally as tools and as solutions to deep problems.
