I did like Elon... for like 5 mins, about 5 years ago.

He has been behind a lot of cool businesses. Starlink is my favorite. It's totally fair to praise him for his part in that.

But the man is just a shit human being on so many fonts. An absentee father who abandons his LGBT kids. A guy who, intentionally or not did throw a nazi salute on stage and then instead of apologizing just spent the whole next day making nazi jokes on Twitter. A guy who supports politicians and tries to buy votes. A guy who hangs out with the red pill crew. On and on.

Praising him as a human being is a grotesque look.

The danger of getting close to authoritarians…

If they would diminish the freedom of their loved ones for their own sense of superiority, how stupid would we be to think they won't do the same to us?

Here is the big problem with authoritarianism in Bitcoin:

Someone who wants those closest to them, the people they claim to love and care for most in life, to "submit" to them clearly doesn't understand, or hold sacred, the sovereign soul.

Those who proudly declare things like “Jesus is king!” reveal that they revere authority and domination.

If they value sovereignty for themselves but not their loved ones, if they value peace and love but wish damnation for those outside their community, why should we think they will be consistent in applying their values in Bitcoin?

Humans are complex. These people are likely not simple liars, but this hypocrisy is very concerning, and it matters a lot.

If enough personal “freedom” were on offer, what might they demand others submit to in exchange?

Bitcoin is just one border of a culture, it's possible for people to realize their hypocrisy and change but probably not likely. I think those who are the most cooperative will have the most success in a culture using Bitcoin as one of its borders.

The phrase, Christ is King, can be interpreted in many ways. While I know Christian chuches have been perpetrators of every kind of abuse at some point in history, that doesn't actually change Christ's message; and his message had nothing do to with submitting to authoritarianism, in my view. When...

You need to come up with a better example to display your point, because I think "Jesus is king" but I vote pro-choice even though I believe abortion is baby murder. This comes across as someone who has been traumatized by "church people" in the past, so I'm sorry if that happened to you, but its no...

Christians do not wish damnation on those outside their community. Quite the opposite.

But, Jesus IS King.

Halloween is my favorite. Yesterday I had two costumes! A simple and classic costume - Carmen Sandiego. Great for taking the kids out.

And then a more elaborate costume, a Druid! I took some artistic liberties here and went with a moss green robe, and the face paint is really more Nordic than Celtic, but it’s Halloween, the drama is fun!
