Crony capitalism based on the fiat monetary system is on its way out, it's a system that requires never ending growth to avoid collapsing. But what we need instead is not socialism or fascism. We need real free markets based on hard money like Bitcoin, without the state's interference. Truly free markets are the most powerful super computer of all time, capable of efficientally aggregrating disparate information and assigning labor and capital where it is needed the most. As soon as you throw government and their regulations into the equation, it's as if the free market super computer has caught a virus. #bitcoin

ICE just spent millions on AI based social media surveillance software. Immigrants are just the test case for the new surveillance state. Don't think for a second the state won't start using these tools on other groups as well. If you still are using social media under your real life identity, you probably shouldn't post anything but cat pictures. You may have freedom of speech today but who knows what tomorrow will bring. Some political rant you posted 10 years ago might get you thrown in a prison camp one day. "Oh but the constitution says"....give me a break, the constutution has failed to protect your 2nd amendment or 4th amendment rights. One day it will probably fail to protect your first amendment rights as well.

ICE is surveilling U.S. citizens’ social media with the same tool that is used by the IDF and the Pentagon. https://t.co/YuEU7psL9Q

Learn how to lie. You will need that skill for what is coming. No, don't lie to your friends or loved ones. Learn how to lie to the "authorities". Learn how to lie to corporations. It is a skill, practice it, it might keep you alive and out of a prison camp one day.

The AWS outage may of been the United States government testing it's internet kill switch. There is speculation of a coming "cyber pandemic" in which they will use their kill switch to take down the internet across the entire United States. They will lie and blame this outage on a cyber attack from Russia, China, or North Korea. Chaos will ensue. The Federal Government will then use this contrived emergency to justify "locking down" access to the global internet. A firewall could then go up that puts China's to shame. This will conveniently coincide with most states adopting draconian age verification laws that prevent users from accessing websites and apps without sharing their identity. People will be so scared after a week of no internet that they will accept this without question to "protect them" from future attacks. The free and open internet will be a thing of the past. What do you think about the cyber pandemic theory?

The SEC has approved in kind transactions for Bitcoin ETFs, which means you can convert spot BTC into ETF shares without taking a tax hit. The state would love for you to do this, it makes seizing your Bitcoin incredibly easy for them. They want you to think that holding an ETF is "safer" than risking self custody. You may be thinking, "oh they wouldn't take anything from me, I'm just a normal guy with nothing to hide." I got news for you, noone holding ETFs are safe. The state seizes assets and cash from innocent people all the time, they don't even need to prove that a crime occured to do so. They don't care if you aren't a criminal. This will only get worse in the future. Do not give up your Bitcoin to Blackrock, without self custody, you lose the biggest advantage of holding Bitcoin. Non KYCed Bitcoin in self custody is like an insurance policy against state oppression and currency debasement. Bitcoin ETFs are a scam. You cannot truly own anything in the traditional financial system other than cash. Everything else can be stolen from you at any time for any arbitrary reason. They want your Bitcoin, there is only 21 million of them, don't give yours up. #bitcoin #selfcustody #ETF #blackrock

Better late than never I suppose. I just hope more people realize that the foundation for what Trump is doing was built a long time ago. Where were the massive protests when the Government increased it's power exponentially during every other administration? Now people care about the constitution and due process all of a sudden? Some people tried to warn us about what the Government could do one day with the power it was being given. Piece by piece our 4th amendment was destroyed through various abuses that became sanctioned by the courts, including DUI check points, drug dogs, the third party doctine, the Patriot Act, and more. To protect themselves from any possible armed resistance to their tyranny, they simultaneously eviscerated the 2nd Amendment as well. Not many people cared or listened and dismissed the warnings as "conspiracy theories" by anti government kooks. They said the Government had to violate our constitutional rights to protect us from drugs and terrorists. Now we are a few steps away from an AI powered dystopian surveillance state nightmare. The actions being taken against immigrants and the domestic military deployments are a test of their power. They are ok with these tests going all the way to Supreme Court because the Supreme Court is currently stacked with very authoritarian leaning judges. Once the 9 high priests give their blessing to some of these abuses of state power, we are cooked. These people really think that if we just elect a Democrat next time, we will be magically saved and our freedom restored. We need something different, not another corrupt Republican or Democrat, but an entirely new system in which no one is in charge. Not just no kings, but no rulers at all. #politics

America functioned just fine for more than 150 years without requiring photo IDs. The state has spent decades normalizing "showing ID" for more and more activities, so that now you have been conditioned to not think twice about doing it. Now 3 states are about to require age verification to download any application through the Play Store or Apple's app store. This is not ok. We are not ok. The people of Texas should be rioting in the streets over this but most people are incapable of second order thinking and are dismissing this as a minor inconvenience. It is so much more than that..... #privacy

The ruling class have succesfully used fear to create mass psychosis in the population. Many people now believe that undocumented immigrants are so dangerous that it's ok if we violently kidnap people off the street based solely on their appearance. Remember, crossing the border illegally the first time is a civil and not a criminal offense. ICE is treating all immigrants as if they are criminals. Even citizens with valid ID are being detained for being brown, and are told they are liars with a fake ID. The left is not immune to fear based mass psychosis just because they aren't falling for this particular fear campaign. The left showed how easy they are to also manipulate with fear during Covid when they were so afraid of Covid that they ostracized and demonized anyone who wasn't. What will the next fear campaign be? I think the next one will target everyone of the right and the left, and will get them to give up more rights in exchange for the state's protection from a new threat. One possibility is a massive cyber attack that is orchestrated by the state to create a justification for the complete takeover and full control of the internet by the state. What do you think the next fear campaign will be? When it comes will you fall in line with the sheep or will you stand up and refuse to let fear be used against you? #politics #voluntaryist #immigration #covid

Wow. Overwhelmed with the irony of a Ethereum "privacy" L2 in testnet asking me to have a valid ID to join that testnet.... I don't give a fuck what ZK magic you use to KYC me, it is still KYC. More than a billion people don't have valid ID. I also don't have an ID, by choice. Because I am not livestock to be tracked, traced, and branded by the state.
