I RARELY talk politics on social media, if anywhere else, for that matter.

I will say my piece on this, and be done for probably (at least) four years.

The thing people forget when it comes to things like pardoning Ulbrect is that with Trump's old-school GOP base--they're always going to be in his ear reminding him that drugs are bad mkay, and internet dark web stuffs should be illegal, and this Ross guy is a big ol' crook for doing bad drug-y things on them big bad pseudo-illegal interwebs. Look at all the states that refuse to decriminalize or legalize weed.

People who keep going to the ballot box and hoping for change will not get it.

To change, you must exit the system and build your own.

Well said. Legalizing weed would benefit the State because it would profit off of the taxation, taking away from the countereconomy. Making laws as alegal and vague as possible is a good solution for this.

I also rarely talk politics, but I'll say, the R base you're looking for doesn't exist anymore in any meaningful number. Rick Perry for example, old guard Republican, ex governor of Texas, lieutenant governor for George W Bush, is a medicinal psychedelic activist now.

Most politicians are phony, and will pander to whatever they think will get them reelected. This means, if the base moves towards Trump, more libertarian leaning or whatever, the politicians will move that way to keep power. So we can expect to get at least some of what we demand, when it doesn't hurt the power structure.

1. Not looking for anything

2. I already know all that.

3. Who's "we"? I vote for no one, and demand nothing from anyone but myself. I'm my own leader.

But we agree all politicians are phony.

I know govt is fucked and there's no point in engaging in the tyranny of the state, which legitimizes it.

/end of discussion.

I don't vote either as a rule, but even if you're not a statist or believer in the state at all, you live under one and you want some certain behaviors from them. So "we" is you and me.

I've been trying to explain this to people. Libertarians got wise and decided to infiltrate the Republican party. Running third party is not an effective way to gain power. This is why you are seeing the the party take a sharp turn in recent elections.
