The competitors of both communism (Tea Party) and capitalism (Occupy) appear concerned with the exact same problem, that big centralized entities will try to brainwash people with the ideology that fit their agenda.
Crony Capitalism combines the worst of both worlds, and is the inevitable effect of this polarity. Opponents of Big Brother should rather unite with the motto: "The Revolution Will not be Centralized"
With Bitcoin and the blockchain technology, the possibility of decentralization of power is a reality - decentralized banks, businesses, legislation and organizations are being built at this moment. .
Steemit is the Decentralized Social Network part of this Revolution!
It would be nice if people realized that the corporations and the government are basically the same entity in the US. Your Venn diagram does a nice job of implying this fact.

You may very well be on to something. This has probably been the most comfortable place for me to interact with staunch capitalists. We don't have much in common but we sure want this community to thrive and believe in freedom even if our definitions are built upon almost opposite premises. I think we can see each other are decent despite different ideologies here. This is important!

100% agree, I have found the overall discourse to be far more respectful, and useful compared to what I typically find on my mainstream social media feeds.

This is a really interesting concept. Here's my takeaway, please feel free to clarify if I'm wrong:
In a future where more and more of our universe (finance, information, entertainment, consumption, etc.) is decentralized, crony capitalism and general politics-as-usual will have no choice but to assume a new face.
My question: What do you think the new face of politics could/might look like? How might that be better or worse?
THANKS!
