If you want to take the ability of sovereign entities to self determine, then sure we “could” organize in this way.
But we don’t have a god emperor of earth, so we will need to rely on this loose consensus instead of a dictated one.

Why does it have to be dictated? People can freely organize in a democratic way.
The problem is that people may join just because it is better, without fully supporting the respect towards others that is needed in such a system.

Things don’t happen that way. “Can, may, could” means that there will be pockets of people that don’t subscribe to the ideology and undermine it.

That’s the challenge. I still believe that it is possible.

Alright, thanks for confirming my opinion.
