Episten's Inspiration? Donald Barr's SciFi Book Space Relations
https://stacker.news/items/1310969/r/kepford
Sometimes it becomes clear to me that many bitcoiners aren't really pro freedom. They want the world to change but it really isn't about freedom.
Being pro freedom really means supporting the liberty of those that want to do things you do not approve of. Things you would NOT. Everyone wants freedom to do what they want to do. That's not special. That's the status quo.

If you are not speaking to friends and family due to political differences you are being manipulated.
Now, maybe your relative is a jerk. In that case, it's not politics.
If Trump can have a civil meeting with the Mayor of NYC you can eat a meal with your family member that voted wrong.
If Obama and Trump can sit together and laugh you shouldn't be dividing over politics. It's pro wrestling.
I see families divided and friendships broken over this stupidity. Most people are stupid when it comes to politics. It's just not that important. What is important is building strong families, community, and friendships.
Don't give in to the psyops.
Reminder. Politics is pro wrestling for people that think they're smart.

Is crypto legit now? (ft. Coffeezilla) - YouTube
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=exoNex2Yn5w
Entertaining video that gets some things right and some things wrong. I like to watch stuff like this from time to time to get a different angle on bitcoin and crypto from outside voices.
There's plenty of cringe but its funny which helps. Most stuff on bitcoin are only cringe.

The Harsh Reality Of The Los Angeles Dodgers...
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ovZaSx1pgno
This non-Dodger fan sums up my view of the Dodgers organization in the context of the league. For you Dodger haters I recommend watching this as he makes some great points about how the owners are really the ones fans should be angry with... not the league. Not the Dodgers. The Dodgers are the template, not the evil game destroying monster.
But who am I kidding. Losers don't want this info. Only winners.

Why Socialism Just Won't Die - Reason
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WVU8fS3IJuE
An absolutely excellent video from Reason looking at the NYC mayoral race but zooming out of that to look at why Socialism is rising in the US.
Well produced. Short and persuasive. But most importantly it is seeking to explain how we got here. Why is Socialism appealing and why liberal (libertarian) ideas are dying. I would argue on both political sides.
In my circles I see two things. Friends worried about Christian Nationalism and Socialism. None of the people I know are concerned about both. Its one or the other. It is interesting to watch.
@SimpleStacker they don't mention RR Reno but they should have. Really aligns with his book well. Just from a Libertarian view point looking outward. Like, how can Libertarians fix some of the weaknesses that may lead to Socialism having such an appeal.
