No. And I'm also not a capitalist. Both are 20th century ideologies.

(And they are words that have been stretched and abused to the point of meaninglessness: remember, in the 1990s, Microsoft called Linux "communist": https://www.theregister.com/2000/07/31/ms_ballmer_linux_is_communism/ )

I support freedom, global equality of opportunity, kindness and cooperation, human welfare and progress.

These are timeless principles. The question is how to use the tools we have available to achieve these values in the context of the 21st century. I've written at length about the kinds of mechanisms I personally support, but I definitely do not think that I am the only source of good ideas, I think figuring out the best approach is a shared project of both thinking and also increasingly real world experimentation.

I also resonate with your view that figuring out how to use today’s tools to achieve these goals in the 21st century is a shared project, blending thought and real-world experimentation. Personally, I’m intrigued by decentralized technologies (like blockchain and AI) because they might offer new ways to foster cooperation and equality globally. But I’m curious—what specific mechanisms do you support? Of course, I completely agree that no single person has all the answers, and I’d love to hear about any experiments or directions you find promising that we could explore together.

Seeing more and more people discussing cryptocurrency as they age, I know I am standing in the right world.
