Unpopular opinion for 2024:

Voting (for any party) empowers the current corrupt political system and, ironically, disempowers those who cast the ballot.

There is a better way.

Agree but could you explain how voting for the least-worst is more disempowering than not voting?

There is another way to vote, other than the traditional ballot.

A sly roundabout way, with your purchasing power.

But why not both? Not worth the attention and effort?

Not realistic. Stop voting and you let lunatics like Warren get in power

With voting, Warren is very much in power.

When the approved opinion was about how important voting is, I was totally comfortable sharing your position.

Now that we're seeing articles about how too many people are voting and that voting is a threat to "our Democracy", I've become a bit unsure.

Does that include those voting just on bitcoin as a single issue. Suppose a pro-bitcoiner was on the ballot in MA in opposition to Warren who had a good chance of beating her would you encourage the voters to vote for that opponent or keep up with the "meh, it won't make a difference"? Isn't part of the bitcoin message one of dismantling the system?

I think the better advice would be to do both.

Too many crimes have been committed, they can’t allow another election. There has never been a more important time to be stacking sats.

Looks like Jeff is back with his weekly post.

Easier to say stop voting.

I'm done handing out silver platters and explaining. All the time wasted....

Here's the food. Figure it out. 🤣🫡

In part I very much agree. Sound money is an axiomatically important part of We the People winning.

More so, it’s: “and” not “or.” We are in a 30 front war. Let’s win on 30 fronts. Let’s win here, there, with a fox, in a box.

Narrow focus, narrow victory… if any.
