Bukele, Trump, Milei, they are all the same shit, you just have to give them time to fuck it all up.

Bukele is a statist who thinks roads are thanks to the state and now accepts IMF loans to the detriment of Bitcoin.

Trump is a nationalist who thinks tariffs will improve the economy of the average John Smith.

Milei is an anarcho-capitalist who now works for the state and still won't abolish the central bank and wants to dollarize the economy and rely on the Fed.

They are all a joke.

A good Bitcoiner does not believe in politicians and does not participate in the system. A good Bitcoiner believes in Ted Kaczynski, in John Mcafee and in Mircea Popescu and of course in Satoshi Nakamoto.

Skepticism towards any leader is healthy and desireable.

Look at who they serve.

That’s literally all you have to do.

Every single one serves Israel.

Small note on Miles based on this interview.

I believe his explanation of small progress or maybe smaller that expected by anarchy capitalists. He says that if he introduced all reforms from day one then having minority in parliament all of the changes would rejected. Moreover if he started from changes that might have led to hiperinflation and large expansion of deficit it would only support the socialists and they would overthrown him.

Out of this trio you mentioned I have actually some long term hope in Miles, much less in Bukele. Trump is just Trump. Might be useful if he finds his own interest but might as well be dangerous.

Anyway interview worth listening to.

Sad, but not unexpected.

Still, the path is started. It'll be a long road ahead...

a very good analysis with which I fully agree

I’m glad you mentioned Kaczynski

I beg to differ. They are all not the same and they are better than the alternatives.

We can be better or worse served by the politicians elected.

The problem imo begins when people EXPECT politicians to solve THEIR problems.

Be as anti-State as you wish, the truth is that it's still a very powerful institution.

Political power is a zero-sum game. You can ignore them, but they won't ignore you.

This being the reality of things, it's not a bad idea to have people in power who think more like us.

This is VERY different from not taking responsibility in life, or expecting some politician to fix everything™

Too often in nostr it's all very white and black on this topic.

Be happy we got Bukele, Trump and Milei, and not more leftists. Be happy the world will be a little bit more free in many ways because of this.

Just don't expect them to fix everything. That's just not realistic.
