#1 Following: Jesus the Annointed King. Why?๐Ÿค”๐Ÿง Jesus created the universe. He claims all as benevolent King, and I cordially invite you to voluntarily join his expanding Kingdom. I believe that #bitcoin is a significant tool for taking back power from the forces of darkness. Read me here: https://peakd.com/a/@creatr/b Husband, Father, Grandfather, Great-Grandfather

Our Blessed and ONLY Sovereign (1 Timothy 6:15)...๐Ÿ™๐Ÿป๐Ÿ’–๐Ÿ˜†

Fed up with American politics?๐Ÿค”๐Ÿง๐Ÿคจ

Or, for that matter, with the politics of WHATEVER nation-state you're part of at the moment?๐Ÿ˜ณ

There is another nation you can join right now...

When truly understood and properly appreciated, you'll find it to be a highly decentralized GLOBAL ORGANISM (NOT an "organization"), yet one with a highly effective LOCAL presence.

Citzenship in this nation is open to ALL, regardless of individual history or credentials. Neither your past failings nor your highest accolades have any bearing on acceptance; the only possible barriers to entry are entirely within you, the applicant.

Immigration is completed and citizenship conferred without payment or initiation formalities, and is immediately effective upon your recognition of, and swearing of fealty to, the blessed and only Sovereign.

While not a requirement for entry, "Proof of Work" is expected of every newly minted member of this nation (and will follow quite naturally if there has been an authentic "red pill" experience). For those who patiently hold to the course, virtually unlimited patience and grace is available as you learn the ins and outs of being a good representative of the King and his policies.

Best of all--and I know this will seem hard to believe--THIS King is a BENEVOLENT Sovereign, one who quite literally has YOUR best interests at heart, and who offers you authentic freedom to the greatest extent possible.

However--before joining--individuals should soberly consider the potential consequences of repatriation. Here's what you need to take into account in advance:

All other nation-states adamantly HATE the citizens of this new nation, because their way of life exposes the tyranny, corruption, and utter bankruptcy of every other presently existing nation-state. This has historically resulted in the persecution, imprisonment, and even murder of vocal members of this distributed, national community.

Has this brief made you curious?

If you're interested in an investigative trip down THIS incredible rabbit hole, please read the following material. And, PLEASE; feel free to respond to this thread OR to DM me and ask your toughest questions... Worst case, I'll say "I don't know.":

True, but only if you're speaking relative to today's situation...

Many if not most churches during the founding era were Protestant descendants of reformers who were fundamentally statist in their theology. Mentally, they were already captured by the state.

The reformers' core confusion was later systematized by Abraham Kuiper as "Sphere Sovereignty," falsely identifying the state as "civil government" rather than seeing it for what it is in truth; namely, the kingdom of satan in perpetual opposition to the Kingdom of Jesus/God/The Heavens.

Thanks for asking.๐Ÿ™๐Ÿป๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ˜€

Participation in the apparatus of nation-states has historically only increased state power via the baked-in operation of the Hegelian dialectic; in contrast, bitcoin itself is a shining example of a better path, namely, the creation of superior systems that inherently withdraw power from the state.

We're having this conversation via another exemplary "freedom technology," namely nostr, a tool that eliminates the state's power to silence and censor.๐Ÿ˜†

I'm deeply grateful that every individual who contributed to the creation of these two revolutionary technologies used their time and energy to build new tools, rather than to battle the old system.๐Ÿซ‚

Perhaps you feel you can accomplish more taking the state head on by voting or running for office; and perhaps, in your personal situation and given your history, you may be absolutely correct?

However, many of us choose to listen to Jesus, Ghandi, Ayn Rand, Larken Rose, and others who believe we can do far better by creating NEW systems, built on radically different, morally superior foundational principles. We expect the state to ultimately self-destruct, collapsing under its own weight.

For anyone who may be interested in considering an alternative approach to saving the world, here are my own collected writings on the topic:

Perhaps I've missed a book or story here or there, but few... and I'm probably overlooking an author or two that slip my mind at the moment...๐Ÿ˜œ๐Ÿ˜†

Thank you, Fren...๐Ÿ™๐Ÿป๐Ÿ’–๐Ÿ˜†๐Ÿ‘

Michael has had a very positive effect on me; I'll extend him some grace, and see where he goes from here...๐Ÿ˜†

Hi, Fren...

Just a curious pleb contemplating running one...

How many do you have, and how long have they been running?๐Ÿค”

Have you considered immersion cooling?

I never realized that horse shoeing was such an involved process, or that apparently the hooves keep growing out and need to be trimmed like that...๐Ÿค”๐Ÿง๐Ÿคจ๐Ÿ˜€

Very, very cool. Thank you.๐Ÿ™๐Ÿป๐Ÿ’–๐Ÿซ‚๐Ÿ‘
