Essentially, yes I do and I'm fully aware of the operational and philosophical difficulties of such an undertaking. I have ideas about how to implement a distributed governance approach without falling back into patterns of autocratic central control, but am still working on how to make those robust against attempts at hijacking and so forth.
First of all, nationalism is not national sovereignty.
The former is a social construct which an individual embraces while the latter is a principal of law which a group embraces.
The former is hardly useful, but the latter is vital to all existing nations. No nation is going to willingly give up its right to self governance.

So, essentially, you wish to live in a world without borders where one or more unions govern many places regardless of geographical separation?
Because that worked out so well in the past...
