I could. I may. It doesn't really matter. I live in a state that's going to pick blue no matter what.

I'm done being gaslit. Vote your conscious but for me that means leaving the Dems behind. Whether that means RFK, a voided ballot, or the orange man, I'll figure that out when I get there.

I do wish you a pleasant evening though.

I feel like maybe there's a disconnect. Trump lies and exaggerates a lot. I'm not endorsing the man, I'm only saying that I am no longer hating him like the media pushes people to do. I am no longer looking at him and automatically dismissing everything he says, or his policy proposals.

Both left and right are wrong about most everything as far as I'm concerned, because what they disagree on is how to spend other people's money, and how best to force compliance from people who disagree with them.

My political views ossified into far left liberalism because of Iraq.

Disillusionment with lib politics started started probably in the Obama years, but I kept consuming mass media and it kept me more of less compliant.

I still don't like Trump, but the media coverage of the assassination attempt was eye opening and what I needed to really see how brainwashed I had been.

That's where I'm torn. Participation legitimizes the system that's been constructed to keep us as docile tax slaves. But I hate a lot of the ideas and policy that come out of the left wing of the uniparty.

I used to have TDS. I no longer blindly hate him or the people who like him as I was directed to for years.

Growth is a funny thing to watch in hindsight. I went from far-left to Ayn Rand within the space of just a few years because of exposure to the ideas and principles that are discussed in many Bitcoin circles.

This'll be the first election in 20+ years where I don't vote blue. Still undecided on whether I want to participate at all.

I like carrying as little bulk as possible, so for me a micro-9 offers good set of tradeoffs for what I need out of a carry gun.

I love to see other people's takes on EDC as well. it's always interesting to hear different approaches.

Still relevant.

Poor Germany got the right message to 'separate money from state,' unfortunately something was lost in translation.

No better teacher than pain though.

It shouldn't be a political issue to want to be good stewards of the land. I hate how climate activism has tainted environmentalism as a whole.

We are in a special club it seems 👀

Basically. I don't understand the collective obsession. I get that it's a train wreck, but still... why waste your attention on it?

I feel this note deeply. I overthink social interactions to the nth degree because I don't want to be misunderstood, and my word is painfully important to me.

2 but reversed

I almost responded similarly, I had to reread it to make sure I hadn't misunderstood

I think some people hit the 'your bullshit conservative ideas' and jump the tracks.

The note wasn't particularly controversial. TLDR decentralized services are for everyone 😂

This song is so damned good. More people need to listen to it 💜
