Not many of my freedoms, being a white, straight man with relative financial stability.
I don’t believe that Donald Trump’s idea of Bitcoin is aligned with the tenet of maximum freedom for every individual to pursue their goals and reach their potential.
On the other hand, I expect him to (again) support numerous social and political moves that further marginalize American minorities and the middle class.
One of the reasons that I believe in Bitcoin is because it gives a real, fair, level-playing-field chance to *everyone*, including groups who have been fucked over by the state and/or by cultural norms since this country was young.
It’s almost like taking a pure and well-intended origin of “pre-woke” (proper classically liners and socially progressive) philosophy, filters out the bullshit, lip-service, and authoritarian implementation of “new rules for everyone” and instead delivers a *truly* free and open opportunity for everyone. In a way that no culture or social group or government, no matter how well-meaning, could manage to provide. Bitcoin is both incredibly progressive and precisely conservative, liberal and libertarian, in a non-mutually exclusive, frankly beautiful way.
If you’re genuinely curious about the track record, here are a couple of collections of the trump administration’s hostility toward freedom and civil rights. The details and linked stories within are worth reading.
And on the way by, because of the nature of the internet, I feel required to mention that this is not an endorsement of Harris. It is simply a condemnation of Trump.
