The light you see would be blue shifted because of the speed you’re going and become gamma rays for you. Radio waves would shift to visible light. So you would see radio.
If you would move that fast on the ground, you’d slam into air molecules at light speed, causing a huge shockwave like a continuous Hiroshima nuke going of. That would make you sad.

I should also note that the mutinies were not violent. They didn’t attack their officers. They often just refused to move or attack.
Simple desertion happens a lot more. Mutiny is also common enough. But this is the cleanest standing aside.

That’s history repeating once again. The rich abuse the poor, pick a fight, conscript the poor and are then shocked when the abused farmers would just stand aside when the attack came. Smart nobility knew this is a two way even street.

It’s already happening, but it’s in usually a slow disentangling of payment systems, software, tech, … Just cut and run would be very damaging. And like many things in politics it’s often two steps forward one step back.
