After 20 years of forever wars, growing social decline and exacerbating economic demise, it seems that we are still immune to learning that politicians lie.

Most politicians run from responsibility like a fat kid from a diet plan, and electing an overweight billionaire won’t lessen the White House’s appetite for cake.

Voting for Trump may temporarily muffle the echo haunting that empty space between your ears as you convince yourself to at least have done _something_ to fulfill your imaginary patriotic duties, but it can’t change the moral corruption inherent to US politics – and it sure won’t change anything for Bitcoin.

When your morals can be bought, you are not a patriot – you are a sell out.

Y'all are still voting for politicians? I only vote on initiatives/referendums/etc

I would have thought you would like Chase Oliver? He seems to be closely aligned with your values.

I usually vote libertarian, but I might vote for Kennedy this time. He has a lot of issues, but he was very good on Covid. I still haven't decided between him and Oliver.

We might be kind of partial as to your choice here ;-) But if RFK doesn't win the plurality of the votes nothing changes. Voting for candidates for new parties allows to build a system for the future as we discussed with Forbes earlier this month. https://peertube.uno/w/18vUuin7Jowub7RCwaLV9a

Nah. Bitcoin influences everything it comes into contact with and this clearly includes politics. Know the rules, play the game to win.

Read the article, shut your mouth

Jesus Christ is that picture real?

yup

Fucks sake.

Great article by the way. Thanks for your work.

Yeah it’s real….it is his daughter Ivanka. Obviously Epstein was superimposed. The cope is palpable

No its fake, look at trumps arms.

Its bad fake at that

I vote- with my time and money.

🎯

Everything you are describing is because of the guy that has been in DC for over 50 years but you bring up Trump, and post a pic of Epstein?

all true, but nonetheless an intriguing and surely positive development that now the good guys can do the buying …

People always want to vote their way out of tyranny...

This is clearly fake.

Did a quick image search before posting so I don't think so, but there's enough more to choose from if that helps with your conscience

If trump was part of that club.

That man would have been protected not arrested/killed.

You are pushing propaganda

lol

cry harder loser

I am not crying.

Just poimting out your posting lies

Vote orange.

Why waste energy pushing lies?

This just wakes more people up and pushing them to Trump

I am 100% fine with you bashing trump

But at least post the truth

Propaganda like this just pushes more people to the Trump camp.

I for one am tired of the lies

😭😭😭

You like the lies?

Thank you for writing this piece

🍻

Choice is an illusion anyway. It’s not the Super Bowl and no your vote doesn’t really matter.

"For those incapable of reading between the lines: by promising to make all Bitcoin mining MADE IN USA, Trump actually advocates to make the Bitcoin network less secure and less usable."

"When your morals can be bought, you are not a patriot – you are a sell out."

So you have upheld your morals by writing, submitting and publishing an article in the magazine owned by the person you are implying is a sell-out?

Doesn't traffic from your article benefit the sell-outs?

Did the magazine/CEO you are complaining about pay you and publish the article?

So you can take money from a sell-out use your work to benefit a sell-out and yet you are not a sell-out?

I don't get it? Honest questions.

you should try looking up editorial independence, that should help

there is no "we".

yoh have 2 evils to pick from. Which one will get us yo a bitcoin standard faster is the question. You can't do much about the rest but you can opt out with your money and feet.

You simply don't pick one. Pretty easy.
