Let’s assume this was a blunder. Curious why you never cast any of Trump’s which are 100x, not just in quantity, but in magnitude? Obama birtherism, attacking McCain for being a POW, calling for a ban of Muslims, FALSELY stating Haitian migrants are eating dogs and cats. FALSELY stating they’re here illegally. Stick with building and stop antagonizing your users. Many of came here to *get away* from it all. Read the room.

It isn't interesting content. 😂 But hey, if he wants to put that slant on the blockchain and embarrass his descendants, I guess that's his prerogative.

Agee. If you want an answer to your question, I recommend /moz and their podcast. Worth a listen and will help you understand what's going on.

I’m anti-institutions. I think they are incompetent. Washington DC is at the top of the stack. Plenty of coverage of Trump. I find mainstream liberals an easy target because they rationalize their political beliefs to an absurd level. Whereas average conservative is honest: I’m voting for the non-liberal candidate. I don’t care about the rationale or logic. If average liberal: I’m voting because it’s my team and I don’t care about anything else, I would have more respect. Pure tribal affiliation. Politics is to help those you like and hurt those you don’t. Very Lindy.

"Whereas average conservative is honest: I’m voting for the non-liberal candidate. I don’t care about the rationale or logic." Isn't the fact that they don't care about rationale or logic an absurdity in its own right? (no pun intended) Anyway, we probably won't agree here, but seriously man, for the sake of the platform you worked hard to co-found, go find another outlet like X or Reddit or Truth Social to discuss this stuff. This is all risk and no reward, so why do it? A lot of your casts are coming from a right wing slant, even if it isn't intended that way . People here may not speak up, but I'm telling you, it isn't landing with a lot of folks here and is pushing you farther into the "unlikeable" part of the spectrum. And that might be fine if you're running LL Bean or Tyson, but not so much if you're the founder of a social media platform, decentralized or not. :) Not trying to be mean, but it has to be said.

Institutions are the fabric of functioning, healthy society. Are they perfect? No. Will they ever be perfect? No. Saying you are anti-institution is akin to saying you are anti-society. Institutions should be invested in and improved upon, and we’ve got a lot of room for improvement to be sure but deepening cynicism and mistrust is not the path forward.

my policy preferences lean towards progressive, although I've voted across both mainstream parties and independents (but often more Dem than Rep because of progressive values) my view: the two-party death grip on US politics is the single greatest threat to national security, as both parties seek divisive issues to split the electorate (interesting read: "The Polarizers – Postwar Architects of Our Partisan Era" by Sam Rosenfeld) what are your thoughts about the recent chorus of people who view Trump as presenting a clear and present danger to the nation because they have sworn oaths to the Constitution and refuse to swear allegiance to a man who wishes to be a monarch/dictator (I'm biased; choose your preferred term, both are being used among protractors/detractors) or am I rationalizing my political beliefs to an absurd level? context: https://warpcast.com/eirrann.eth/0xeb7fcf77 https://warpcast.com/eirrann.eth/0x8d0edd9f

No need to rationalize.I want a better world for my kids, especially one that isn’t trying to set up the handmaids tale for my daughter. That also means, better access to healthcare/ addressing climate change and economic disparities between the rich and the poor. Pretty simple message.

it's easy to pick on the people that are trying to make things better, the alternative is basically fascism at this point if you have any basic understanding of what's going on. lol like there's no world where this should be a tough decision

anti-tax, anit-inflation, pro-free market "conservatives" falling in line on tariffs, but sure liberals rationalize.

Do you believe that institutions are by essence incompetent? In which case i imagine you are against any form of government? Or do you believe these particular institutions are incompetent? Saying something like "im anti institutions" seems to indicate that its the former?

Have you considered that capitalism is the most entrenched establishment institution? Not the ideology but the institution - the Oligarchs, lobbyists, pay to play politics, military industrial complex and so on ... The system of political and economic power centralized in the hands of the capitalists. Why not be anti-capitalist?

I would argue that *democracy* is an institution, one that needs to be protected not subverted. "...mainstream liberals rationalize their political beliefs to an absurd level." As compared to Trump supporters? Asking for a friend. "average conservative is honest...I don't care about the rationale..." ?? Is this real? Disappointing and telling, yes. But real?

What makes you anti institution? Aren’t institutions one of the core elements of society that allow us to coordinate for example, the Federal Reserve, US Military, Apple, etc. What’s the alternative? Any particular read (book or blog) here?

I really don't get how you came to this conclusion. Have you considered that people just support politicians who at least claim to share their views on issues that matter to them? If "I don't care about the rationale or logic" is your idea of honest, then I'm not sure that's a good kind of honesty.

Agree with everything except liberals “not” voting left because it’s left. Hard disagree. No one would vote kamala if they actually dissected her past and the way she rose to power
