I appreciate people across the political spectrum, and have friends in multiple worldview camps. Especially since they are often from different countries with different contexts. My friends do tend to cluster in certain areas due to our shared interests (i.e. I am freedom-oriented in general), but there are people who consider themselves to be anarcho-capitalists and others that consider themselves to be aware progressives, for whom I would invite them to my home and stay in our guest area.

But I have a visceral disgust toward people who I perceive to be playing a role or being consciously fake. I'm not against people playing an actual obvious caricature for satire of course. But in the modern era, there is a tremendous amount of audience capture, gaslighting, fake social media influence that is meant to come off as genuine, and influencers and politicians treating their audience as though they are literally retarded.

Once I perceive someone as fundamentally fake and consciously playing a false role that they pretend is real to their audience, they're done to me. This behavior has been on an enormous uptrend in the past few years, much to my provocation. It's an acceleration of cynicism. Those that do this are intelligent but cynical toward their audience, manipulating them either for personal gain or for their political purpose.

Be aware of this trend.

Sometimes it feels like this is taking so long, the global exorcism. Then another day goes by and the demon reveals itself to have longer tentacles than you thought. Each day, another glimpse of the beast.

When I smoke the day's last cigarette, and reflect back on the absolute mind fuck the past 8 years has been. . . . Completely and relentlessly intense. My own personal journey through that time warp to now - I can sense it might actually already be over. And this is what it looks like as the aftermath sets in. A new dawn in bound, just a temporary confused period as the demon fights back while lowering itself into its crypt.

Keep stacking #Bitcoin.

Each bit/sat, to be looked at as a nail, your nail for the legacy system's coffin.

#Bitcoin Difficulty is currently set to increase by at least 7.5% at the next difficulty adjustment on Monday.

This message is so true and so powerful time is running out.

Think of how dumb the average person I'd and then imagine half the population is dumber than that. Then imagine Harris is dumber than half of the bottom half😄

It’s my genuine belief that Kamala Harris’s IQ is a few points below the national average.

Needs to be one word. 2 to 3 syllables.

the number of times a way-too-fucking-loud midroll ad has pummeled my eardrums is too damn high

I found it boring. #Trump was dodging the hard questions from #Rogan and monopolized the talk so he doesn’t get asked too many questions. He even started interviewing #JoeRogan at some in the interview. I think he was really uncomfortable in the this format and his narcissistic personality was in full display. It’s not the interview that will convince the unconvinced.
