I agree woth you, as a former cookie cutter liberal pre-bitcoin. In fact, I typically agree with your takes 100% except for the use of the word progressive itself. Whether we like it or not, to be a progressive ( speaking from my experiencece in the US ) is really, really hard to unwind from State-Centric policy. I live in the PNW, all of my friends are very, very progressive. They simply do not see the disenfranchising of the state as a means to achieve ideals and goals they find important. This makes it almost impossible for them to see my means to achieve any goals ( as a bitcoiner) as anything but a threat and lunacy. So i just fail to see the connection with the word Progressive any longer, personally.
Sometimes a feel like you are holding on too much to that word, friend.
Again your take is 100% right and i dont want to distract from its value ...for me personally its liberalizing to untether myself from the Progressive ideal entirely ( albeit hard at times too as i am a bit 'adrift' now.
Cheers mate keep posting 🤙
