First, let’s clear the air and describe who or what Caesar is not.

Caesar is not any government, or even a cohort of them. Caesar is not Big Brother. Caesar is not capitalism, socialism, or communism. Caesar is not a ruler, or bureaucracy, or elected officials. Caesar is not a CEO, or an oligarchy of the most valuable companies. Caesar is not the Illuminati or a similarly evil cabal.

Caesar is not Artificial-Intelligence, it’s not the president of the United States, it’s not the billionaire class, it’s not our digital technology.

No. Caesar is not one single vestige of The System. Caesar is The System. Caesar is the thing which commissions your conscription. Caesar is the thing that compels you to pay its tax. Caesar is the thing from which you cannot escape.

Which means that the answer to the question “who is Caesar” is always shifting, and up to each of us to determine.
