People don't comprehend sovereignty anyway; its a mutual insurance of men with spears resulting in self determination by self determined means.

On an individual level this basically meaningless; on a group level you need some frontier with lots of space to flee/disassociate (which does not really exist anymore for the most part). So you are left contending with established organizations at mass scale (states).

My point here is not anti-State, its just that seeking their cooperation is probably useless, and success is more likely when they are simply forced/pressured to adjust to the new reality you introduce.

The main cause for why seeking their cooperation does not work is because in those endless layers of bureacrats and commitees, most are clueless to the topic and avoid responcibility like the plague; one might argue the reason for all those layers of bureacracy, committees and rapports is exactly that: to avoid the need for understanding and taking responcibility while still maintaining controll.

You could call it checks and balances, or call it a buffer to ease neuroticism. In any event; better to have them grind their gears to fit themselves to you, rather than getting grinded in those gears yourself ultimately leading your fitting inside of them.
