After Thursday’s presidential debate, I have a tough time relating to or wanting to be a part of any politics. I’ve been feeling this for quite some time and haven’t really supported any political candidate from either party since 2016. I sure as hell won’t support Donal Trump, I’d like Biden to step down, the DNC is corrupt, and the progressive wing of the Democratic Party is a laughable sideshow that’s ineffective and grasping for relevance.
I am left leaning ideologically and politically, and obviously while I’m feeling this and running nostr:npub1fpcd25q2zg09rp65fglxuhp0acws5qlphpg88un7mdcskygdvgyqfv4sld I can have mixed feelings about the title/brand. Can the progressive bitcoiner take on and be an identity of its own, calling those to embrace a new “progressive,” forward thinking view with Bitcoin? I don’t know, but many on the left are still absolutely repulsed by bitcoin and closed off based on tribal, group think. It’s disappointing to say the least. Is the title or risk of distraction worth it, considering the normie left isn’t tuning in as I desired anyway?
Bitcoin is millions of miles above this silly politicking and left/right divide. It is so much bigger, and more important, than all of this. My hope with the pod is that it has presented diverse content and helped people feel seen and heard that don’t typically resonate with the right/libertarian dominate crowd in bitcoin, not to divide.
My feelings on all of this may lead to a rebrand of the pod (removing political labels). It may not. I want to be very intentional either way, and my focus remains the same of wanting to highlight what I think are the most import things in bitcoin: human rights, mining and the environment, social justice, basic tech understandings, Bitcoin for everyone and global freedom money, etc.
Did you see RFK Jr's own version of the debate where he got his own moderator and live studio audience and answered each of the debate questions along with Trump and Biden? Quite a contrast on many of the questions and with answers that were far more nuanced and insightful. Does his type of progressivism align any better with yours?
But I guess they only think there a hundreds of computers mining it so maybe that's why the emissions are so low...
BRÆKING: Greenpeace continues its SEXIST anti- #Bitcoin campaign, releasing new video about “Bitcoin BROS.”
NEWSFLASH to Greenpeace misogynists: there are WOMEN in Bitcoin, & Bitcoiners will not stand by while you ERASE them.
Please repost if you think Greenpeace is sexist. https://v.nostr.build/8G8mv.mp4
This is hilarious! Their video says bitcoin only produces 86 metric tons of emissions instead of 86 million metric tons! Top quality source of reputable information right there.
So elegantly simple. Yet in English, I bet we would take two or maybe even three words to express the same meaning in our inefficient way. What does that mean, do you know?

Huh? Is that the whole article? It is crazy short and 90% of the content is off topic bias from the reporter.
Wait, so the solution isn't to crank up the taxes on jet fuel so he is no longer better off flying?
I've watched a few of her takes on different things and find some of them OK, but if it's a topic you know more about than she does it can get pretty frustrating, as she is happy to share her opinions on stuff when she's still only just barely scratched the surface and hasn't really understood the nuance or other surrounding issues.

Just sounds like post modernism doesn't it?
Are you quoting someone else there, or is this your own profound musings? If so, jolly well said!

How cool is that? Has this gone live for everyone now or is it still in the closed testing phase?
Reminds me of this rather amusing piece of history...
Is this why there are auroras visible in NZ way further north than normal right now? Here's a photo a friend sent me from near Wellington... 
Such a nice video. Is the benefit of being paid in bitcoin for the shoe maker fellow that he gets orders from overseas? Or just that some locals want to pay in bitcoin?

I don't think I've ever seen memes used for the types of purposes discussed in this piece.
Is this all a deliberate part of building the false narrative to justify massive internet censorship?
