Made a comment on some Twitter thing today and got a bunch of angry responses about how me being a leftie is what's destroying this country. 😂 There's something increasingly funny about how ridiculous the left/right ideology has become.

Well, it mostly is, but that doesn't mean people on the right aren't retarded a lot of the time too.

I actually feel more disconnected from it than I have in the past. I feel like my real place is on #nostr now, and I just go back to Twitter to see what’s become of it. It’s like a morbid curiosity. It’s like visiting an old friend for coffee who is still useful and can let you know how old friends and acquaintances are doing, but he also went a little psycho a while ago and now everything you talk about is at arms length. You’re still “associates,” but you’ll be happy to get out of there.🤣

I can’t remember which format works to embed another post… so I’m gonna try a few and see what happens 😆 nostr:note1t6zmvzfg2xwegp95sm2k4enqq6mlrjqty57nefgscr6eylucelqqcds8jc https://damus.io/note1t6zmvzfg2xwegp95sm2k4enqq6mlrjqty57nefgscr6eylucelqqcds8jc nostr:note1t6zmvzfg2xwegp95sm2k4enqq6mlrjqty57nefgscr6eylucelqqcds8jc

Networks are still valuable and ignoring them is a net loss, imo. I don’t really need to explain #Bitcoin and fiat money to anyone on #Nostr (maybe a few, but the reach isn’t there yet), but about a billion people on Twitter need to hear it. The broader reach on that network matters, it’s kinda similar to YouTube. I treat them both the same now. I just post in hopes of reaching someone who can value from it, I keep one foot out the door, and I simply expect that I’ll at some point either be banned or the place will become such a mess that it won’t have any signal left at all. To me, the idea of just cutting it out like Marxism, or a tumor (but I repeat myself) because I think it’s taking a dumb direction feels kinda like smashing my iPhone because I don’t like their new OS policy or something. I’ll drop it when it feels redundant, but it’s still my best source for articles (top articles feature saves me *hours* of wasted time), and it’s still my best way of getting in touch with tons of people. We will see how long it lasts though, I am far more invested in #nostr on anything other than a short term timeline.

I dunno man. Sure, there are idiots hiding in every single nook and cranny of the political spectrum, bar none. But I reject the notion that bitcoin is more “for” one part of that spectrum than the other. It’s hard money, a sovereign asset, without permissions or borders. It’s for everyone by design. Projecting a political ideology onto bitcoin is misguided imo. I hear a lot of “you’re liberal, you shouldn’t have any bitcoin” and that’s just idiotic rhetoric and it makes the community look stupid to outsiders.

I agree that Bitcoin is a soverign asset that is for everyone, but that is exactly what makes it incompatible with thieving ideologies & authoritarian desires to fund govt programs without the consent of the people involved. In a Bitcoin dominant world, when all the printed money is gone, how are govts going to force people to fund their programs? Most govts can't exist in anything like their current forms without the ability to print money & covertly steal from the savings of every productive person at once. And while it may seem like a subtle difference, if killing someone gets you no closer to their money that can significantly change the economies of scale in organized violence that makes govt possible at all. Since the very nature of bitcoin threatens the way govts are funded, & the left generally wants big govt while the right wants small govt, bitcoin is largely incompatible with the left. More specifically incompatible with any version of any political ideology that advocates more govt intervention in society. It is basically a tool for destroying political authority by protecting the most fundamental property rights, which is a libertarian or anarcho-capitalist ideal. Who says "taxation is theft" & "end the fed" ? It's usually not the people who want universal healthcare or UBI or gun control or any of the other big govt nonsense.

I’m not hearing as much “small govt” from the right these days either. They both seem to want their own version of big govt.

If I had to put it as simple as I can: Bitcoin’s system is the codification of a particular set of individual rights, and there are political ideologies whose foundation is built upon the direct violation of those rights. Therefore, Bitcoin is naturally at odds with those promoting its opposing principles, or those who wish to violate the rules, implied morality, and universality that #Bitcoin enforces.
