The best things said about it
Rothbard actually talked about this in Anatomy of the State that once faith in the state declines they would replace it with a technocracy or scientism.
The greatest danger to the state is independent intellectual criticism.

Why people recommend it
Anatomy of the State is a concise political pamphlet by Murray Rothbard that examines the parasitic nature of government and the ways state power sustains itself over society. On Timcast IRL, Michael Malis enthusiastically recommended the short book, calling it the most powerful sixty-page essay a person could ever read. The pamphlet also generated extensive discussion across several podcast episodes following a high-profile social media mention by Jack Dorsey. On multiple episodes of Timcast IRL, Tim Pool and various co-hosts discussed the widespread libertarian excitement and online reactions after Jack Dorsey tweeted out sections of Rothbard's work, specifically focusing on the idea that the greatest danger to the state is independent intellectual criticism. Dave Smith also brought up Rothbard's insights on Timcast IRL, using the text to explain how public faith in government often leads to replacement by technocracy or scientism. On the Lex Fridman Podcast, Michael Malice discussed the book while recounting copyright challenges with Amazon regarding the inclusion of Rothbard's classic text in his own publishing work. Across these programs, speakers frequently cited the pamphlet's core arguments to critique government overreach, state authority, and the historical mechanics of political power.
