I agree will almost all that you have said.
The only I part I disagree with is "You can't have Tyranny without a centralized government". I say that "You can not have tyranny without authority". Society needs authority to stabilize itself, criminals needs to be punished, this is why authority need to have safeguards. Centralized government has little safeguards and this is why they are magnets for sociopaths. Decentralized government has the ability to localize failures and isolate tyranny from the rest of society. Tyranny will always exist just like how criminals will always exist. There are no evil systems just more or less efficient. This is why I would choose to live in a decentralized system yet admire a centralized system. The type of people that live under such systems are the ones who let tyranny spread, this also why I hate civic nationalism.

I do not respect my neighbors authority on my property without prior consent. Yet the government can trespass with impunity. Authority requires free will to recognize with "equal" respect.

The authority of the government already has your consent. Government authority is an inheritance, you can inherit money and you can inherit debt. Everybody loves inheriting money, but once people inherit debt all of a sudden inheritance is the most evil thing in the world. Thankfully financial debts are forbidden from inheritance. Social inheritances are not bound by human law, but natural law. You reap what you sow.
Weak and stupid citizens consented to the tyrannical authority we now face, they chose to live under tyrannical authority. Social failures, like Republicans and Democrats, have all voted for the monsters in power and choose to place their children under their care, for many pathetic reasons. These failures all avoid the truth of the beast they created and choose to do things like banning firearms so they can pretend they are making things better. This blame shifting only makes everything even worse. Now that the "diversity" has a foothold, the beast can no longer be stopped peacefully.
We are merely reaping the multitude of bad decisions other people have and continue to sow. Blaming authority is simply running away from major social issues and is the reason I hate anarchists. The study of genetics and eugenics is key if we want a more advanced and stable civilization.
