Politics is a state run soap opera. Trusting one side will change make it better this time is ignoring all of modern history. It's two sides of the same coin, a fiat coin, a state run system. Cannot vote out of it. And it's all predicated on the illusion and real world consequences compelling people into hope or a believe to voluntary immersion into the systems negative feed back loop. It's all a charade and illusionary trap doors/exits.

And yes it historically doesn't end well for the persecuted.

In early America people could evade persecution and unjust laws by moving to another state or traveling west. Those days are clearly long gone. Hopefully the masses become aware of bitcoin. That is the only hope I see.
