To be honest, I actually didn't vote at all this year. Why? 1. I have the right not to. 2. Ever since I became old enough to vote, there has never been a single candidate who genuinely represented me. Why should I be forced to choose between two evils at all, regardless if one is a lesser evil? 3. Harris winning only would have delayed the inevitable, and would have propped up an archaic crumbling status quo for maybe a few more years before the lunatics ran the asylum again. 4. My vote wouldn't have mattered anyway. I'm not going to play the games of a system that can no longer function properly; that system can go to Hell.

If you think this is a trash take and want to block/unfollow me, you are entitled to that and I will not think lesser of you. I'm done playing by the old system. That's why I'm invested in getting decentralized organizations working properly. I'm not here to save the world; I'm here to burn it to the ground and plant a better one in its stead.

Let’s face it Musk and Theil are the real winners here. Although Theil kinda scares the beans outta me, maybe a techno-aligned network state isn’t such a bad plan right about now. Let’s bring conviction voting to the world and fire all the politicians.

If we are going to network state, it must be decentralized. Can't say I trust Theil either and I certainly don't trust Musk. The tech billionaires won't save us.

Oh I get that. Quite the opposite of saving. I think they think outside the box on traditional political governance though and we should be as well (other than us crypto folks) The time of delegating hundreds of votes to a single person for 4 years, is coming to an end. We don’t need it.

Yah, think the era of a voting based democracy is def coming to an end, especially with the rise of AI. It won't belong before we figure out systems that can calculate and enforce consensus without the need for voting. https://robhorning.substack.com/p/habermas-machines
