What alternatives to democracy can you point to as demonstrating a superior model?

Small communities that are self governing.

And be vulnerable to larger more powerful communities that come in and take everything from you?

I don't think in our Bitcoin future humans will be competitive in this way. I think we can be better. We can Co exist peacefully. Once we have our needs met, we will evolve. Maybe. I don't know. I'm a idealist. Maybe unrealistic. But it's what I will always keep in my heart.

A republic is a better one but also various forms of agorism, crypto-anarchism, polycentric law, and of course, Bitcoin but that's a form of crypto-anarchism.

Have any of these forms been shown to function successfully outside the dreams of idealists who ignore the reality that global wealth and resources are fiercely competed for between nation states?
