No not at all

Hey, thanks!
Couldn’t respond sooner - swimming practice with the eldest, cooking dinner, then quality time with the older kids (Lego Fortnite lol), then bedtime!
Just wanted to say that it’s a really great initiative to gather young father Nostriches. I mean, we surely have at least this in common - we’re pro free speech, likely Bitcoiners, and wish the best for our kids. Namely that they can live safe and prosperous lives!
Being open to having it geographically distributed is super important too. As we just have different concerns and issues to deal with. As an example, the left/right divide is really not that important here. But it’s only because we still have the experience of living under a communist totalitarian regime still very fresh in our collective memory. So we really just don’t have too many fools advocating for it yet. We’re also still salty about how that pushed us from being one of the more prosperous and developed countries in the region to being among the poorest.
The very recent memory of being a pretty poor place also means we don’t have too many people hyper focusing on transgender bathroom policies. Boys are largely still boys and girls are largely still girls.
Similarly, having been pretty poor until quite recently (not yet super rich, but rich enough by now) also means we’re not really dealing with the consequences of decades of misguided mass migration results.
On the other hand, we do have to deal with external players who just dream to destroy the West. By making an example out of us. They want to see a politically fractured America, hopefully fighting a civil war. They want to see a divided Europe where countries can be played against each other. They want to see America and Europe at each other’s throats. That’s their wet dream. Then the world is an oyster for them.
That’s not a world I want my sons to live in. I want them to be free. And the way this needs to be done in my opinion is by saving the West. We need to reinvigorate its values and the foundation it has been built on. We need to confront the enemies willing to destroy it. Both internal and external. And not lose democracy and freedom in the process.
I think it’s a tall order, but it can be done. And the start is definitely the realization that someone who has decided to go into fatherhood with eyes wide open in this day and age is definitely not your enemy, as we definitely have more in common than what separates us. And that applies not just to the ideological spectrum in a particular country, but also across geographies.
So yeah, kudos! 👍 Now let’s go and fix everything.
