I have never seen America more politically divided than it is today.

My #Bitcoin journey has caused me to shift to a neutral stance politically which allows me to observe behaviors from both the blue and red camps objectively.

My friends in the blue camp cannot imagine how or why millions of Americans can vote for Trump when he clearly incited the Jan 6th attack, clearly tried to overturn an election, clearly said “grab em by the p*ssy”, and is clearly planning an authoritarian takeover of the government via Project 2025. Oh, and he was just convicted on 34 felony counts and has several more major trials in the pipeline.

My friends on the red team have no clue how or why millions could vote for Biden when the economy is suffering, inflation is at generational highs, the border is a mess, our cities are falling apart and we’re on the brink of multiple wars. Oh, and Biden is basically “Weekend at Bernie’s” in the White House.

It’s pretty amazing how folks who would otherwise get along famously are divided over politics. The echo chambers in which we live reinforce our views to the point where they become entrenched.

As for me, I’m more of a single issue voter at this point. Any candidate who is committed to fixing the money has my support.

I'm reaching out to anyone that can see this with an important initiative that I believe aligns with our values and vision for the future. We're launching an adoption campaign aimed at providing loving homes for children in need, and we are seeking support to ensure its success.

The unique aspect of our campaign is that we're leveraging the power of Bitcoin for fundraising. By accepting Bitcoin, we can take advantage of its transparency, security, and efficiency in processing donations. This approach not only modernizes our fundraising efforts but also aligns with the growing trend of digital finance, making it easier for supporters like you to contribute.

Your Bitcoin donation will have a significant impact. It will help us cover the costs associated with the adoption process, including legal fees, home studies, and post-placement support. By supporting this campaign, you're directly contributing to a child's chance to find a permanent, loving home.

We believe that every child deserves a family, and with your help, we can make this a reality for many children. If you're willing to help, please send your Bitcoin donation to [

]. Your generosity is greatly appreciated and will help us bring joy and stability to many young lives.

Thank you for considering this opportunity to make a profound difference in a child's life.

Best regards.

Wait until you get to the “voting for any ruler is wrong and participation is complicity” stage

Well Fixing the money means adopting Bitcoin in my view. Starting off by backing the dollar with BTC and other hard assets and grow the % over time.

The idea would be to bring some measure of fiscal discipline back to DC.

RFK has proposed this.

You still have one foot in the fiat world. They can’t save their shitcoin with Bitcoin. Pegs don’t work. The people who are in control will always cheat.

Honestly, fuck the dollar, fuck DC, & fuck all the people married to it. You make the world a better place by saving a bunch of pedo parasites.

Don't forget fuck Business Insider!

Yeah 100% I’m fully out to every extent I can be. Washington DC is a demonic cesspool that literally cannot be reformed. I will never vote and I will keep doing everything I can to avoid and subvert their criminality

I have been there for a long time, but I am also not completely sure how accurate it really is. I know all the arguments, and I haven't voted because I don't want any sort of responsibility for any of the shit these people do. But at the same time, if one tyrant wants to whip everyone 10 times a day & the other wants to just whip us 2 times a day, I don't see what harm there is in saying I'd prefer ro be whipped less while still working to undermine the whole thing.

It seems like the only real risk is in thinking that politics is some sort of answer to the problems & just waiting for someone to save us instead of working to save ourselves.

You do you. I refuse to vote for anyone to rule over me. I’m arms crossed against it all. I feel the votes don’t matter, but even if they did, I’m still not playing. I don’t want to give any illegitimate criminal ruling class a gram of credibility by participating in their system. That’s just my own preference. Everyone else can decide for themselves what to do in the end.

Rip VanWinkle⚡️ 1y ago

My point exactly, we can’t really tell who’s the guy that’s even if there’s one. We’re all just voting the best candidate according to our own preferences.
