Folks get triggered when I say I’m a progressive. I can understand that. But know, this word has a rich history, particularly the progressives in the late 19th and early 20th century who fought for peace, fought for workers rights, supported early immigrants to America, believed in science and the arts, and more.

It was a movement, community, culture, that was above and beyond political parties. It was an idea of what our future can and should be. That’s the kind of progressive I am.

Nowadays, you have “progressive politicians,” that I can sum up in one sentence:

“The road to hell is paved with good intentions”

We need solutions over ideology.

People over campaign rhetoric.

Political party cliques do not change my conviction as a progressive.

Bitcoiners are forging a new path 🧡

sort of like how the left gets triggered by the word "capitalism", yeah. As if they have a clue what capitalism is in the first place.

I hear you, I am a bit more empathetic to those folks because people have been personally screwed by crony capitalism and don’t know why.

I too am skeptical of capitalism as a solution for all, to be frank, but see bitcoin as a better /more fair way to test its merits.
