I've never been extorted by an inanimate object before :p Not knowingly at least. I guess printer DRM is close, but you know what I mean. Hell, even corporations are considered entities by our (foolish) legal standards.
Covid is a great example of why this doesn't work. It was clearly made in a bio-lab. It leaked. Covid would not have happened without government funded research. We can say more could have been done, yet its too late. They made a mistake and it shocked the Earth. Our intellectuals later went on to sell vaccines with questionable efficacy rates and forced a voluntary product to maximize profits. This is not a success story.
Forgive me for not really beliving China's own internally collected data. However, even if true, a long life is not necessarily a good life. You can have the social credit system and live to 101. Ill keep my liberty and die at 70, lol, thanks.
I think we are diametrically opposed in this death-freedom thing. Funny enough your position sounds awfully theological... This is fine if you believe in lawful evil entities like Satan or Hades, but I suspect you do not. The dead are beyond the control of mortals. However I suppose you are correct in they are (seemingly) barred from their speech on the mortal plane. And I do feel the struggle gainst time and physics quite often. I dont see them as antagonistic forces. Like they are not preventing me from living my life. Not in the way taxes and ordinance does, at any rate. Im not a fan of transhumanism, for instance.

lol im done
No, it just randomly selected to mutate into a super-spreader with unique features in a wet lab a few miles away from a Level 4 lab that was creating Coronaviruses. Is this Occam's Razor? Anywho, hope you come back :] We can avoid the topic, if you'd like.
Edit: You had the most interesting take of the commenters :3 Easily the most candor.
