I find it extremely sad that I’ve already had someone call me a far-right extremist for simply having this conversation.
The Assassination of Charlie Kirk

Discussion
Do you really care, though? They've told you more about themselves than they've said about you.
Don't be sad, and don't get discouraged. Just keep being you brother.
We're going to win.
Anyone using that term is a brainwashed sheep in this scenario
It's always easier for some people to label another person far-right or far-left than it is to engage their brain and examine the content of what has been said.
But, dude, you're obviously a way tangent extremist. Personally, I would not worry about the opinions of others, except those of people you respect.
Of course, we all should remain situationally aware and vigilant.
People who don't think much, if at all, are very quick to place others into pre-existing categories. Take a moment, or day, to step outside these tedious narratives, and connect with wonder,.. experience the extreme-alien-ontology of it all.
You'll be happy you did.

Don't be sad. You're over the target.
When your entire worldview is so far left, thise that sit center seem far right 😆
Absolutely, the “oh he was a white supremacist” slipping of their tongue and tarring me with that brush took me off guard.
Sounds like far left talk to me 🙈 Hodl the middle ground. You’re right it is sad , we live in a world of dumbs at the moment.
Something I realized a while back, which might be useful context for you, is that we’re labeled as “far-right extremists”, because it is true, but not in the way most people assume.
The political compass is usually drawn with economics on the horizontal axis (left vs. right) and liberty on the vertical axis. That’s the standard framing.
But if you flip the axes, by putting liberty on the horizontal and economics on the vertical, you start to see a different picture.
In that view, anyone who gets called “far-right” is often simply more liberty-focused than the person applying the label.
Next time you see someone labeled as “far-right,” flip the axis, and you’ll notice the label suddenly makes sense.
Why don't you mirror them and call yourself a libtard instead?
You’re just you Erik. What other people think is irrelevant. You just are you. That’s pretty f’ing incredible 🔥🤙
As the world has drifted into deep left territory, the horizon on where it once stood looks far to the right.
Speak truth but seek peace.
Watch your flanks whatever your political view. And remember your enemies want you angry, they’ll use it to trap you.
Should have called you retarded 🤝
F them. Do what is right and let them howl! The quiet majority will be on your side as you confirm their beliefs.💪
Far right is be coming a useless term. Sometimes just meaning guy does normal thing.
That person is a fucking retard. Pay them no mind.
what did you say to him??
.. which strikes to the core of the issue doesn’t it?
You have the right to speak freely
I have the right to listen or ignore
You are responsible for your speech
I am responsible for my reaction
Two resolution paths for all conflict:
- dialogue or
- violence
I prefer the former to the latter
Therefore free speech must remain a tool for those who seek dialogue over violence, even at the cost of understanding that it will also be used to incite hatred, to vilify and to marginalise

I agree generally but overly simplified. i.e. A brainwashed child can be talked into actions for which 100% responsibility cannot be ascribed. Such nuance typically begets victim blaming, but it needs to be said more often than it is.
Children, by definition, do not have full agency or responsibility; as a parent it’s on you to impart these important and basic truths to your own children
Childhood is about exploring the world and learning, and learning requires a feedback mechanism; choices -> consequences
It’s traumatic to watch your grown children make poor choices and suffer the horrendous consequences .. but free will must encompass this
If a child is defined by those who do not have full agency, than many octogenarians die as children. If the definition of 'child' is one who does not have 'full agency or responsibility,' then some would argue that there are elementary school attendees that aren't children.
That any given parent has a responsibility to impart agency and responsibility to the child is a given; but our philosophy of action must include a realistic recognition that *all parents fail to some degree* and that 'agency' 'responsibility' 'adult' are all ultimately imperfectly defined.
Choices beget consequences, but one cannot rationally argue that all consequences are deserved.
Although I would agree that instilling (allowing to develop) agency and responsibility is paramount, and there is a point at which detachment or acceptance is rational, to watch consequences suffered by loved ones in that name is to argue against helping others entirely. Too often the refuge of those who want to *avoid* the responsibility of being a part of the support network for others.
Just thoughts, not accusations.

I mean...you did weigh in on a politically motivated assassination in the year 2025 so you kind of had that coming to you just for that.
How you identify does not matter to people who have already judged you.
I bet if you did a show with me, nobody would make that comment because we wouldn't be talking about politically motivated violence. We would be talking about psychedelics and spirituality.
Read the room
Cason is smart enough to know that speaking about this subject in a highly visible way in 2025 is going to get him flak. It is pathetic that the world is this way but if his expectations were different, that's on him.
I'm reading the planet which happens to be what he's bitching about. If he doesn't want to be sad about it, then his expectations need to be reset so that status quo becomes the expectation through understanding.
Given that you're a NOSTR tourist, you're probably not familiar with me or what I think about how everyone else thinks things should be done. For a clue on that, watch The Big Short. Even a lot of Bitcoiners are asleep at the wheel, larping as though they're "on it". They're not. Cason is one of the better ones but unfortunately I think he's realized that the subjects that matter the most are given the least attention and that's why he doesn't talk about them as much anymore.
Bitcoin doesn't fix everything but that doesn't mean there aren't answers to some of the biggest issues it doesn't fix. Some of the issues Bitcoin doesn't fix, at least not directly, are matters of cosmological truth which remains a hotly contested subject that leads to great deals of anxiety and ultimately violence. I'd like to see more of the philosophical, spiritual, psychonaut Cason than the angry libertarian Cason.
It’s a sad state of the (western?) world that we live in. We need to peacefully but firmly fight this.
This may be a hoax, listen to this conversation: https://theserapeum.com/dustin-nemos-ryan-veli-volttear-victor-hugo-analyze-sgt-report-charlie-kirk-assassination-anomalies/
Is it possible this person is a far-left extremist? The governments of the world love it this way, so they can watch us duke it out and eliminate each other, read that in the book of Revelation, last book of the New Testament in the Holy Bible! Read it today with an open heart and open mind, my friend!🔥✝️🙏😎
A lion doesn't concern itself with the opinion of sheep.
Don't be a sheep.

That someone is a lost one, off center regardless the side.
90% of people are just catch phrases. So tiring…
People are so easily triggered these days and revert to being extremely defensive
It was a much needed conversation in this heavy moment. Don’t worry about those that aim to reduce you by using simplistic labels.
I think for a lot of people it is easier to view the world through the lens of a sports fan.
Putin dun it
I don't think you're a right wing extremist.
