Trump is a useful idiot. Trump at this point IS the Trojan Horse and he doesn’t even know. Fuck Trump, Fuck Biden, Fuck the state. That being said, if there’s a candidate who’s agenda, on some level, aligns with the proliferation of bitcoin then as a bitcoiner I will vote for that candidate. Unfortunately the death of fiat is not a straight line and will inevitably require us to stomach unsavory circumstances. It’s awful but presently it’s the best chance we have at giving bitcoin what it needs to eventually render the state irrelevant.

It’s such a confusing time in the world and the true signal of peace, love, understanding and therefore bitcoin is hard to find. Ultimately none of us know what the truth is. None of us knows why the universe or God or whatever you may or may not believe in allows for the pain and suffering to manifest. That being said bitcoin is a simultaneously manifesting incentives that swirl around and through freedom, love and understanding. I do my best to feed the correct form of energy as such I zap content creators such as yourself that are working hard to separate the wheat from the chaff. God bless , keep staking sats and spending your bitcoin on people and projects that embody the principles of freedom and love!

Using Bitcoin as a SOV and MOE is the only impactful vote I can cast, that along with raising some good kids (fingers crossed) and working hard to create value for society. Politics and its practitioners are parasites, feeding into the worst instincts in all of us. Bitcoin is the only viable antidote for the fiat military industrial cancer killing us. To know that people are sovereignly transacting with one another using an immutable, global, neutral, decentralized currency gives me hope that we may find our way out of the mess that human greed perpetuated by fiat currencies have created.

"But what about all the Holocaust survivor testimonials? Are they really just lying to get reparations and avoid being whacked by the regime?"

Not all of them - here are a few brave jewish souls telling the truth about what actually happened in Auschwitz and the other WW2 labor camps. (These stories will never be shown in the media or the movies of course, because they are the real story, and don't fit the perpetual victimhood narrative the zionists have worked so hard to achieve through Hollywood, government schooling, etc.) 👇

TLDR: The Nazis did everything in their power to take care of their jewish prisoners in a war-ravaged Germany that was battling mass-starvation, a Typhus epidemic, and getting constantly bombed to shit by USA and the allies (those 3 things being the primary cause of the more accurate estimate of 271K total jewish deaths)

A grand piano, theater productions for kids, an olympic-size swimming pool with diving boards, hospital, bakery, cantina, soccer games with the Nazi SS guards...

Does this sound like a "death camp" to you?

I can’t wait for the day when I’m sitting on sitting on a pile of satoshis that collateralizes me into the fuck you money category. I’m a fully regarded bit-tard who couldn’t rehypothicate my way out of a paper bag. Yet, here I stand like King David with my sling ready to topple the giant. The purposefully opaque financial jargon of Trad-fi and money printing are the tools used by unconscionable psychopaths to trap workers into an endless cycle chasing an ever diminishing yield on their time and energy. In short in a fiat regime we are all wage slaves. Now I’m the rehypothicator, rehypothicating my fiat currency into bitcoin. I was a refugee from the battle of GameStop looking for a homeland in which the abstraction of my time and energy would be treated with love and respect. I’ve found it in Bitcoin. God bless Satoshi and God bless bitcoin.

It’s insane how otherwise reasonable statist type people delude themselves when it comes to believing the government taking their money equals the government loveing them.

Funny story and a beacon to the nostr/bitcoin tribe 🙏 :

As some of you may know, I run an AI team at a large fiat health-tech company. The job has been sucking out my soul for the past few years, but I persisted because the paycheck was very comfortable and helped me keep the lights on at home. It's been brutal working 10-12 hour days under high stress, hardly being around for my teenage son's final years of childhood, and then trying to make time for my passion projects in bitcoin, nostr, and AI.

Last week, I had enough and finally did what I had been stopping myself from doing for over a year. I asked my SVP to lay me off. He laughed and said that's going to be really tough because I run a high visibilty team and the optics would be terrible if I was laid off. 😂

I pressed him some more and told him there was no way I could continue for much longer and he finally demurred and agreed to "see what he can do" 🤷‍♂️

I'm going to take him at his word and assume the sweet axe will fall by the end of June, plus about two months of severance. That's about as much runway I have to start making a dent with all the projects I want to dedicate my time to:

- NosFabrica: health data and interoperability on nostr

- Casa Nostra: an umbrella for all my creative projects

* "Finding Home," my Bourdain-inspired food/travel/culture show

with bitcoiners

* "July 18," the sequel to my novel 24 that's 20% written

* "Plebchain Radio," my nostr and bitcoin podcast I co-host with

* "Rendezvous with Claude and Friends," my performance art

podcast

* "The Acceleration," my AI focused podcast

* "Waiting For Satoshi," a one-act play I'm working on, loosely

Why am I sharing this with you?

Because Nostr is where the smartest builders, thinkers, and gentleplebs hang out. This is my tribe and I am asking for ideas and guidance. Now that I have taken the leap, how do I make sure a net appears? I want to go full steam ahead on all the projects I listed above, but also want to ensure that I'm not rug-pulling my family.

I don’t have any ideas for you that you haven’t already voiced but what I do have for you are some sats! God speed on your journey !

Considering the fundamental economic law of supply and demand I don’t see how anyone could be bearish right now? I wonder if the price has something to do with there being enough paper bitcoin out there to manipulate the price? If that’s the case my next question is why would the holders of said paper bitcoin be interested in suppressing the price? After that I put on my tinfoil hat and speculate that perhaps the collective vested interests of centralized power are doing whatever they can to slow down a train that can’t be stopped. Maybe the European Central Bank and their minions ie: Canadian government, WEF, holders of massive amounts of U.S. debt, the federal reserve, certain large US brokerage banks and other entities that are close to the money printer and interested in perpetuating the fiat paradigm are the parties responsible for said price manipulation? These entities are the only ones that stand to gain from bitcoin’s failure. Ultimately I guess none of it really matters as this world is subject to forces beyond human comprehension. That being said I’d like to see a world where bitcoin was money, I believe it would be a more just world.

Gotta remove capital gains tax before MOE happens. The suits hold those cards until then bitcoin payments are to some degree taxed as our gains in bitcoin are subject to taxation. Once we’re over the hurdle of capital gains tax there’s nothing in the way. I just hope it happens before there’s enough paper bitcoin in the hands of the suits to neuter bitcoin. Maybe it’s already too late?

Maybe the incentives structures intrinsic to bitcoin are so pure that vapid surface level presentations of bitcoin are at worst a distraction? That’s my hope🙏The fundamental precepts of freedom money are codified by Satoshi’s discovery/creation of digital scarcity, difficultly adjustment, amount of compute securing the network, node operators and common working folk who understand the value of bitcoin as a savings technology. To name a few. Ultimately there are two options for Bitcoin. Option one, Bitcoin is going up forever and will fundamentally change the nature of how human beings interact or option two, it will fail. There is no in between. Despite the lack of depth present at the convention it appears as though we’re currently witnessing option one play out.
