“We don’t have to beat them,” Joel patiently explained. “I’m not
even sure we should try. We don’t need a law against McDonald’s or a
law against slaughterhouse abuse—we ask for too much salvation by
legislation. All we need to do is empower individuals with the right
philosophy and the right information to opt out en masse.

“And make no mistake: it’s happening. The mainstream is splitting into
smaller and smaller groups of like-minded people. It’s a little like
Luther nailing his 95 theses up at Wittenberg. Back then it was the
printing press that allowed the Protestants to break off and form their own
communities; now it’s the Internet, splintering us into tribes that want
to go their own way.”
