Bitcoin conferences are bullshit, it's like social media posturing.

I'm more about doing than saying, and mostly more about hiding than showing, I value my privacy too much.

But hey, I accept that most people need to socialize and perceive the group feeling, it's human nature.

What does terrify me, is that, at this point, people and especially bitcoiners in particular trust politicians, and that both bitcoiners and politicians attend the same conferences.

What is the point that is not understood? There is no right and left, it is a false dichotomy, there are no good politicians and bad politicians, there is only the system, the employees of the system and the slaves of the system.

If you support politicians, whatever color they are and whoever they are, you simply support the system.

And what is the system? The system is an extractive machinery of the wealth of the people who live in a certain geographically delimited territory, a parasite.

What you really have to see is the extractive capacity of the state, to realize that it has no limits and that it does not matter the underlying ideology.

This graph shows the percentage of taxes collected by some governments from 1868 to 2008. It is a pity that the graph is not updated to 2023 because clearly the minimum would already be above 50%.

This is what really matters, and it's not going to change no matter who you vote for, taxes just go up and up and up.

Stop believing in politicians and start believing in yourself.
