Left right doesn’t matter. npub164q45vfa8prpl7f63stsl9qm9n22v6julkasjdqxjc8kevchsj0sp42rl3 trey And swear to god the progressives and dummies on Bluesky are like “no we just need to make sure our guys wins!” No there is a structural fucking problem, the constitution and bill of rights are no longer regarded, and there is a permanent surveillance and bureaucratic state that is filled with thousands of DHS polices and “laws” that are in direct conflict with the bill of rights. So let’s get real about the problem and solutions. Either get back to bill of rights or burn it all down. #nevent1q…cv34 npub164q45vfa8prpl7f63stsl9qm9n22v6julkasjdqxjc8kevchsj0sp42rl3 trey ICE officers have shot and killed 2 American citizens in Minneapolis in January alone. Using totally excessive force in both cases. Just think about that for a second. Let that sink in. npub164q45vfa8prpl7f63stsl9qm9n22v6julkasjdqxjc8kevchsj0sp42rl3 trey I want a government and elected leaders that will - uphold the constitution and bill of rights - stop cracking down on civil liberties and increasing the surveillance state But every year that goes by surveillance state increases and civil liberties protections decrease (left or right). Power to the people — the govt does not speak for us or “grant” us these rights. npub164q45vfa8prpl7f63stsl9qm9n22v6julkasjdqxjc8kevchsj0sp42rl3 trey Today my daughter walked towards me — the most steps she’s ever taken — and kept repeating dada dada dada, as I was walking away to a meeting in the other room (I’m so privileged and lucky to spend most of my time working from home). I damn near skipped the meeting and quit on the spot!! 🤣 If someone offered me 1000 bitcoin, or that moment in time — I’d take that moment every single time. npub164q45vfa8prpl7f63stsl9qm9n22v6julkasjdqxjc8kevchsj0sp42rl3 trey Hey @nprofile…y3h5 how many times did you play free bird after you watched clips of maduro being captured? #nevent1q…hesx npub164q45vfa8prpl7f63stsl9qm9n22v6julkasjdqxjc8kevchsj0sp42rl3 trey Gold all time high as criminal investigation opened into Powell They want him out ASAP. Midterm year. Want rates lower…. https://blossom.primal.net/a16eba55216b7d3e857ba8696e262c6d2509ea6af5f5e7416451d946a6ff6f96.jpg npub164q45vfa8prpl7f63stsl9qm9n22v6julkasjdqxjc8kevchsj0sp42rl3 trey And a note on the poor/working class. You used to be able to work a working class job and provide for your family. Every year that goes by in the U.S., we literally create the conditions where they are totally reliant on the state to live, food, housing, work, transport, get healthy, etc. 0 chance to build wealth or pay for their own expenses. Work, no retirement, then die. Their wages can’t afford life! But sure, they have services. Is that freedom? Agency? A good life? And the government pitches this as a good situation (rent control, universal prek/education, universal healthcare, social security, affordable housing )but you can’t make more wages or you’re kicked out!) Fuck no. That sucks. #nevent1q…dvr5 npub164q45vfa8prpl7f63stsl9qm9n22v6julkasjdqxjc8kevchsj0sp42rl3 trey I’m of the school of thought we should oppose totalitarian regimes no matter the flavor (right left etc) And at this point, I’ve seen so many failure from right and left in this regard — against life, liberty, privacy, property, freedom, etc That my default is anarchism. The govt cannot and should not speak for or lead us. npub164q45vfa8prpl7f63stsl9qm9n22v6julkasjdqxjc8kevchsj0sp42rl3 trey Any non-alcoholic wine enjoyers? I’ve actually had a couple out at restaurants recently that are pretty good. Any recs? #asknostr npub164q45vfa8prpl7f63stsl9qm9n22v6julkasjdqxjc8kevchsj0sp42rl3 trey You’re telling me @nprofile…dqpl gets to feel this good every day?! npub164q45vfa8prpl7f63stsl9qm9n22v6julkasjdqxjc8kevchsj0sp42rl3 trey The more we build up government reliance, the harder the crash and fall will be for Americans and those around the world that rely on U.S. government funding, with its ever changing political winds and the house of cards it’s built on. Less ability to be self sovereign and financial free, and more reliance on the government to live. It’s a shame. A horrific shame. I’ve tried to talk to my progressive friends about how terrible a situation this is, and how bitcoin as resistance money is the only way (they don’t trust the Trump admin/government, but yet they continue to want to advocate for policies that expand the federal government and dependence on it in every facet of life, especially direct UBI and healthcare l??!$) You can’t claim you’re part of the resistance, or fighting for a better world for everyone, if you continue to support an increase in central, federal govt control and coordination over every part of life including healthcare, housing, UBI (which of course comes with mass surveillance and social credit score), labor, and an ability to save money/capital. Modern progressives are not liberal and often times hold pretty un-American, anti liberty and freedom views — led by academics and politicians who gaslight and mislead them. https://blossom.primal.net/eb2763c9615b0acdfc47239792cfb8291d30cd81b73acb009835999ec8f937e6.jpg npub164q45vfa8prpl7f63stsl9qm9n22v6julkasjdqxjc8kevchsj0sp42rl3 trey I continue to use nostr to flesh out ideas in real time. For a while this has been the case, but I want to express the following. If I’m being intellectually honest, I can’t call myself a progressive anymore. Labels (such as that one) are tools. When a tool no longer describes your thinking, you don’t owe it loyalty. I don’t fit with that group anymore. I’m more in the left libertarian/anarchism camp for sure. And the modern progressive movement has gone far more faith in technocratic regulation, redistribution via bureaucracy, “expert”-driven solutions, moral language without material empowerment, than ever before. I don’t believe in its solutions, or its leaders. Progressives used to be hyper focused on anti-war, occupy, and suspicion of concentrated power. Now it’s like the opposite. For the record, I didn’t move right, I didn’t stop caring. I just stopped outsourcing my ethics and what I’m supposed to say or believe to institutions I no longer trust. I think more of us should do this, whether the “right” or the “left.” That’s not regression imo, that’s maturity and following my intuitions as I navigate life and its social complexities. npub164q45vfa8prpl7f63stsl9qm9n22v6julkasjdqxjc8kevchsj0sp42rl3 trey I shared a note from @nprofile…26zu on X It’s starting to go a bit viral, huh (granted I only have a little over 1,000 followers on X after I deleted my original Twitter and created a new one) https://blossom.primal.net/09aebc6121b7375885ce1e1ff3ecf8b6aaefd559d8f5183e7bf7453670b1f7fb.jpg npub164q45vfa8prpl7f63stsl9qm9n22v6julkasjdqxjc8kevchsj0sp42rl3 trey Many people have gotten on my case over the years, especially recently, about pitching Bitcoin and having “the left” accept and understand it. The left, as it exists today. But here’s what I have to say about that Many bitcoiners (myself included) fighting for greater freedom and freedom tech are counter cultural So why is it so hard to understand that the current culture may be resistant to it? It’s not about making Bitcoin and our collective advocacy fit into that culture It’s about culture change. I hate to burst your bubble if you want or need me to be someone I’m not.
