I don't understand leftists in #Bitcoin, and I don't understand gays in the conservative party.

#Bitcoin can only serve freedom at the cost of leftist ambitions.

The conservative party can only serve family ideals at the cost of gay ideals.

Is this a matter of temporary alliance, or is there something deeper I'm missing?

No actual conservative is okay with gay marriage

I think it’s this “colorblind meritocracy” faction of republicans

Charlie Kirk was in that faction pushing colorblind meritocracy- along with Vance, Vivek and Tucker Carlson as well as others

Aye. The "big tent" faction.

I wonder how they sell it to gays, who presumably place a high value on their party championing the gay agenda.

Or maybe not. I want to know more from gay conservatives.

I think they sell it by giving gays their own shows on dailywire and prageru

Sort of like saying “see these gays are conservative”

Also there are likely many gays who are at odds with trannies

But does Rubin and others not think that the conservative party will outlaw his way of living when the time comes?

That's the part I don't understand, and I see it in Christianity too, where gays have been brought in under the guise that the church blesses their way of living, instead of rebuking their sin.

Both the church and conservatism has to choose between popularity and values. I don't see how it can't, because even avoiding that is to make a choice.

Depends which faction takes power — Christian nationalists or colorblind meritocrats

(I guess?)

Why should the state determine who can be married in the first place?

idk dude is this like a libertarian theoretical or what because you can just search what reasons a state may be interested in this information and you may or may not disagree with it

I would never, and am unable to, turn people away from #Bitcoin.

Christ ministered to whores and tax collectors and all other sorts of sinners (of which we all are). He didn't enable their sin, but brought them in.

#Bitcoin is for everyone/enemies.

I think it's good that #Bitcoin is attracting leftists. I think it's good that conservatism is attracting gays.

But let's not delude anyone.

1. #Bitcoin will destroy any hope for a top-down Communism. Leftists will need to turn their hopes to some futuristic form of anarcho communes, instead.

2. The Conservative party will fight against many of the ideals/values/practices that gays hold, including gay adoption, abortion, and even gay marriage. Gays will have to be contend with ceding the common/public sphere back to the family. Their mode of living can never be championed or celebrated in this party.

Needs to be said.

It’s not any alliance. I believe it’s people with a moral structure that has no underlying principles.
