As a progressive, part of me is glad that Trump is cracking down on companies, orgs, and attacking free speech where he is legally able (threatening federal funding)
Why? Because I want people to build more resilient systems and operations.
If you’re a journalist, or creating content relying on free and censorship resistant speech, why are you reliant on government funding that you may critique at one point or another?
Build resistant funding streams. Stack bitcoin, which is resistance money, and live speaking truth to power.
Progressives learning centralized power ain’t all it’s cracked up to be. Of course not!
