This is random but have any of the network state people written or talked about some of the modern non-state actors that have acquired significant military capabilities Examples include: - Ansar Allah (Houthi) - Hezbollah - various Kurdish factions (YPG) - Wagner & other Russian PMC that went rogue Feels relevant

these forces exist for completely different reasons and won’t ever care about something like that

not sure I understand what you mean, all of these groups exist outside the nation state structure, and have amassed enough power to sustain that existence, feels directly relevant to core ideas around network states

they’ve got the power they were given by their donor, same with money, they only exist because donor keeps feeding them like we saw in russia, they’re very loyal and it only got out of hand due to many lucky coincidences and war failing in ukraine, and we all saw what happened to that wagner group after - leadership killed and rest disbanded don’t think there is a way for those groups to achieve any kind of autonomy, they’re pursuing goals set by their donors and will be punished otherwise
