Then one of us is wrong. I alone have the “publish” button.

We tackle every detail in debates and grant the others’ good points, so we rarely hit a standstill. Usually we end up agreeing. It doesn’t take much. Standstills mostly result from people who don’t want to debate or who can’t debate. We don’t have that issue.

Covid vaccination was our longest debate, still ongoing, but it no longer affects macro. And my main point was that nobody should be forced to get it. And we joke about it now, like my liberal mom who is more left than both of us sent me a serious text saying not to get an MMR booster since I almost died from it as a baby, so I sent it to my husband like “apparently here’s my origin story as a conservative anti-vaxxer, btw”.

So if we disagree on a material post, I feel the need to argue it and sometimes slightly reword it, after his pushback. It makes the article better. But should we somehow still disagree, I’m the one that presses publish on all my platforms. The final arbiter.

He has final say elsewhere in many other areas.

But I’ve never had to publish without his blessing. I analyze and tweak to get his agreement, because he’s a great critic.

over a long enough time span, it’s all just opinion

#Trump won’t fix inflation

Trump won’t fix border security

Trump can’t stop the national debt skyrocketing

Trump will probably get the us into war with Iran

Trump will spend for money than he did last time

Your day to day life won’t change much regardless of who is the president. The federal government is on cruise control, the pilots have long been dead and we are the passengers yelling at the pilots to do something before we slam into the mountain of unsustainable debt not knowing the end result is inevitable.

Smart ones are grabbing the #Bitcoin parachutes 🪂 and saving themselves. Most people won’t. Can’t say they weren’t told to do something to save themselves.

I'm out of this country ASAP if that happens, and I'm not giving the government a fucking sat. Its one thing to sell to another bitcoiner of family member to pay my taxes, which itself is maddening to no end, but I will never hand over my Bitcoin to the government. They get their shit fiat and nothing else.
