I don't have any real opinion about Lyn Alden but in general some of the smartest people in history were simultaneously crazy as fuck. Being highly intelligent is common among mentally ill people, we shouldn't write them off and ignore their insights just because they are a little or even a lot crazy.

Up until around 2 or 3 years ago I had managed to stay off of social media for the most part for more than 10 years. No #Facebook, no Instagram, etc. I had Twitter but I rarely used it.
I was almost completely offline from 2011 to 2015, which was a horrible time to be offline in #bitcoin terms. Instead of discovering generational wealth, I was busy reading books and shit. 🤦
Now that I have been scrolling X for a couple years my brain is fucked. Mental health is rapidly deteriorating. My #propaganda filters are overloaded. My attention span is shot. I'm overwhelmed with a sense of impending doom, no matter how much I prepare and stockpile I don't feel ready...
I should of stayed away.

If you are posting a photo online but don't want your location or identity doxxed because of it, here are a few things to remember...
-look for any reflections and blur or crop them out
-be aware that with modern AI analysis, vegetation, wildlife, and even architectural styles can all potentially give away your location
-make sure there is no names, license plates, or identifying text anywhere in the photo
-remember to scrub the exif metadata
-ask yourself, do you really need to post the photo?

At some point I realized I am better off focusing on #Nostr than X in trying to build an audience for the Thought Crime Trap House. One of many reasons for this is that I know it is only a matter of time before X tries to age verify everyone. I refuse to complete age verification, so at that point I might get locked out (a shame because "bitcoinrenegade" is a great x handle). With Nostr I will never get locked out unless my keys are lost.
The ownership and sovereignity that Nostr provides me as a content creator is more valuable than most people realize.
If I ever do have to complete an age verification process for anything, I guess paying a random homeless person to do the process for me is always an option.

Watch the supposedly pro bitcoin administration use Iran flows as an excuse to #KYC the hell out of everything. Every front end, every wallet app, every fucking thing. I can see it clearly.
Perhaps there will be a false flag terrorist attack with direct "evidence" of bitcoin funding it.
They will destroy your freedoms to "protect you" from exaggerated threats, as usual.
Question, if they make p2p #bitcoin sales illegal, will you comply?
If it's only legal to buy bitcoin through regulated KYCed exchanges, will you comply?
Are you willing to risk going to prison to make a stand for freedom?
In such a situation, the only way to resist would be mass non compliance from the majority of bitcoiners, it has to be too many people to make prosecution impractical.
If only a few have the balls to do so, we are all fucked. Either we stand together or we will be completely enslaved.
Unfortunately, I think many bitcoiners would LARP and talk a good game, but would comply when it came down to it. All they care about is NGU. Especially the ones who are already buying all their bitcoin KYCed when they aren't even required to.

Tip of the day for avoiding interactions with the state:
Make friends with your neighbors, especially those close enough to see or hear your home. Introduce yourself to them if you haven't already, give them a phone number and tell them to call you if they ever need anything.
Wave at them when you see them, smile, ask how they are doing. Do favors for them if you can. Do this even if you hate it, even if they are retarded scumbags. Who knows, they might grow on you.
The main goal is to get them to talk to you first if they have a problem rather than going straight to the police, HOA, or code enforcement.
You don't want to make enemies with your neighbors. Many encounters with the state start with neighbors who don't like you, often because they don't even know anything about you.
Eventually you want to develop the kind of relationship with your neighbors in which they will look out for you. A neighborhood full of friends doesn't call the state on each other.

Today is rare disease day.
I have hope that the cost of high quality medical care and treatments is about to drop like a rock.
Not because politicians will actually fix our scam of a medical system, where incentives are misaligned and gatekeepers are everywhere. The cost will go down because of open source technology.
I hold on to hope that medical treatment is about to improve exponentially through AI. They will try to gatekeep OFC but the open source medicine movement will win in the end.
There's already at home pharm labs, open source, and buildable with off the shelf parts. One day people will download expensive patent medications like they were downloading a pirated movie, load it up into the neighborhood basement pharmacy, and get low cost medication.
Open source surgery robots, doctor AIs, etc.
We can't rely on politicians to fix the scam that is the American medical system, so we simply route around the system entirely and drop the cost ourselves.
The state and medical industry will fight this tech hard though, they make too much money on gatekeeping medical care, but they can't stop it.

The Department of Homeland Security is now advising its U.S. citizens to be prepared to present proof of citizenship at any time. Regardless of your thoughts on illegal immigration, any freedom minded person should be able to recognize how dangerous this is.
A society in which you have to carry a permission slip just to walk around is a society of slaves. (It's almost like public schools where you need a pass to go take a piss have been training us to comply with this)
The time for sign waving and chanting is over. It's time to defund these motherfuckers.
Practice countereconomics. If we take control of the monetary system, they lose their power. You think they will be able to find fresh goons if no one accepts the dollar? If no one pays taxes?
Support the grey market, buy your goods and services from unregulated and unlicensed businesses and individuals.
Opt out of the banking system, take control over your own money. Use #BTC, #XMR, precious metals, etc.
Use dollars as little as possible, but if you do use them use cash.
Are you just going to sit there or are you going to do something? Imagine if countereconomics goes viral....

The people who keep saying the Samourai devs were "asking for it" because of some tweets they made in the past are using the same logic as someone who claims a rape victim deserved what they got because they wore revealing clothes.
No one deserves to get kidnapped, bankrupted, and put in a cage for writing code to help protect privacy. It really doesn't matter what they did or didn't say in the past.
The only people that deserve to be in a cage are the criminals who refer to themselves as the state who love to destroy people's lives for imaginary crimes with no victims.
if there was no victim, there is no crime.

Yeah some people were flipping out who didn't even bother to read the announcement. NFT is non transferable, token is a utility token like a prepaid phone card.
However I'm assuming people will speculate on the token anyways because they will just see simple x token and smash buy without any research into what they are buying...
Was this the best way to do this? Probably not but it also doesn't mean they are doing a cash grab scamcoin either.

The internet blackout in Afghanistan that has left 43 million people without access to the internet is a good reminder that the State can just cut off your internet at any time. It's not like the companies that provide you internet service are going to say no to the State and their monopoly on violence. They will do as they are told.
This is why we have to build our own internet using mesh networking. Alternative systems have to be in place before we need them. We have to maintain the ability to freely share information and transact with each other or it becomes much easier to divide and conquer us.
I cannot overstate how essential this is.

Most people simply don't comprehend the extent of the surveillance police state that is currently being built out with AI, facial recognition, gait recognition, age verification, drones, digital IDs, targeted spyware, and compliant stablecoins.
We have to build out alternative systems, mesh networks, and circular economies using crypto and even gold in the second realm NOW before it is too late.
If we don't have the alternative systems in place so that a person can survive without using the state's systems, then the state will have the power to destroy your entire life with the click of a button if you say the wrong thing or associate with the wrong people.
If Republicans are in charge you may be accused of being an Antifa sympathizer, if Democrats are in charge you will be accused of being a Far Right Extremist. The groups your are supposed to be afraid of will change, the abuse of power won't.
All of a sudden if the state wishes, you wont be able to get on the subway, rent an uber, get on the clearnet, use your debit card, rent a home, get healthcare or insurance of any kind. You won't even be able to buy food.
Your stablecoins will be locked.
Your KYCed Bitcoin will be blacklisted.
Your fiat bank account will be frozen.
Your digital ID will be flagged so that you can't even tell people on social media about your situation.
At first the public wont even know this is happening to people, it will be dismissed as conspiracy theory. The first people to get locked out of society will be undocumented immigrants and criminals. These will be the test cases.
Eventually it will happen to enough regular people that word will get out. By then it will be too late to stop it. Everyone will self censor themselves and all dissent will be suppressed.
UNLESS we have these alternative systems built out and ready to go, so if your identity gets blacklisted you can simply live and work in the second realm where state power is lessened.
People will even willingly do this as the second realm will become a more attractive place to be.
You can resist this police state without violence by
~supporting people who are devoloping freedom tech and privacy tools
~using alternative currencies such as XMR and non-KYC BTC whenever possible. Buy and sell goods and services using these alternatives. Is it less convenient than tap to pay? Yes but it must be done.
~use cash or prepaid debit gift cards registered under an alias if you do use fiat.
-do not link your real world identity to your online identity
-refuse to use KYCed services or ones that require age verification
-opt out of digital IDs
-do not use biometrics. The state can force you to unlock a phone with your face or fingerprint, they cannot force you (in America, yet) to unlock with a strong password or PIN. I use a minimum of 13 digits for my phone's PIN.
-learn how to grow your own food, befriend others that grow food, start trading directly with them
~use decentralized alternatives to traditional social media and video sharing platforms
~use TOR and other privacy tools, the more we use it the safer it becomes for everyone
~use encrypted messaging and onboard friends and family to use the same
~learn how to lie. You don't have to give every service/business your real name, phone, and address. Use services like MySudo to generate 9 different phone numbers for $15 a month, compartmentalize your life. Put thought into who gets what information.
~use amazon lockers instead of shipping to your home. Use gift cards instead of debit cards.
~scrub photos of exif data before posting any online. Be careful, even local vegetation in the background of a photo can dox your location.
~learn about and use facial recognition countermeasures such as reflectacles
~self host! If you do use the cloud, encrypt locally before uploading anything to it.
~run your own Bitcoin and Monero nodes.
~use Linux with full disc encryption protected by a strong password.
~use Keepass to manage your passwords and identities
~if your VPN is getting you blocked from certain services, use proxies.
Opting out is a journey and it starts with a single step.

In Kamala Harris's new book she says Trump pardoned "fentanyl dealer Ross Ulbricht".
Contrary to Kamala Harris's claim, Ross Ulbricht was not a fentanyl dealer, all he did was provide an open marketplace for people to transact safely in, protecting users from some of the dangers associated with black markets.
Even if he had been, it makes Harris a hypocrite to advocate for bodily autonomy for women but then turn around and support the state telling people what they and can't put in their own bodies.
I would also like to take this opportunity to remind people that Harris refused to release nonviolent drug offenders to relieve dangerous overcrowding in California prisons because she wanted them for slave labor.
People were literally dying becaus&e they couldn't get basic medical care in those overcrowded conditions. The court ordered her to release some prisoners and she fought it.
What a piece of shit, I hope her book doesn't sell any copies.

I do not support violence of any kind except for self defense.
Everybody is so concerned about "political violence" which is still incredibly rare in the United States.
What isn't rare is the violence perpetrated by the agents of the state against innocent people every single day in this country for our entire lifetimes.
Police officers, DEA, ICE, IRS, ATF, FBI, these are the violent ones.
The sheer amount of unprovoked violence that has occured against innocent people by these scumbags is mind blowing.
It's so much violence that it is difficult for the human brain to even process.
So many deaths.
So many permanent injuries.
So many years spent in cages.
Kidnapping, Extortion, Theft, Rape, Murder.
Dead dogs.
And if one fucking agent of the state gets a boo boo it is the end of the world. If they get killed, they are honored as fallen heroes as if they haven't spent their entire career inflicting harm on others in service of the ruling class. If you dare to defend yourself against these monsters you will feel the full wrath of a criminal organization with a monopoly on violence.
If you even hurt one of their dogs....you are fucked. Does it matter that the dog was about to rip your genitals off with its teeth over $10 worth of weed? No of course not. Does it matter that they shoot our dogs if they even look at an officer sideways? Nope. Police dogs are ordained by the holy priests of the court as a higher form of life than you, a lowly citizen.
So what do we do?
Violence will never work against them, instead they need to be shunned, shamed, defunded, and ostracized from our communities until they no longer are willing to be an agent for the state. The social cost needs to be so high that no sane person would sign up.
Don't sell them houses, don't rent to them, don't serve them food, don't let them attend your church, don't fix their cars, don't talk to them, don't date them, don't let your children near them. Same for their spouses or partners. (Leave their kids alone, they didn't pick who their parents are, but the spouse did pick who they married)
These agents of the state are just regular people, regular people don't do well when they are completely outcasted from society. Most of them will give into the pressure eventually.
What is the state without the agents to enforce their monopoly on violence? It becomes nothing more than some corrupt politicians waving around pieces of paper.
Another way to stop them without violence is to stop using the dollar. If no one accepts the dollar, the state has nothing of value to pay its agents with. Unpaid agents of the state quickly become ex agents of the state.
The violence of the state can be stopped without firing a single shot with these methods of nonviolent resistance while waving a sign or voting isn't going to do much of anything. You can have the largest protest movement ever, elect your candidates, and pass some good laws. Even if you manage to do all that by some miracle, it won't matter because it can all be destroyed by the next round of corrupt politicians. Years of effort can be undone with one vote and a signature. It will always be one step forward and two steps back as long as the state exists with a monopoly on violence. The centralized power itself is the problem, and changing the politicians doesn't fix that.
It's just a question of whether enough people will wake up in time. They either need to wake up soon and realize the state is an evil organization that needs to be stopped, or they may wake up one day in a prison camp wishing they had done something while they were still free.
TLDR: Stop using their money, defund them.
Shame and ostracize their agents.

In the IRS, "Special Agent", has a different meaning than you would think, it means retarded agent.

George, if you get a work assignment involving Ethereum and you are getting paid bookoo tax dollars to do it, at least take 15 minutes to learn about Ethereum so you don't look like a complete moron on the stand.
It's okay that our government is full of incompetent people though, considering their job is to hurt and rob people I would say incompetence is a good thing.

There is no reason why citizens shouldn't be allowed to have the same defense capabilities as the police. When the citizens are allowed to be armed to the same extent as the state's goons, it helps prevent such things as the police rounding up everyone of any particular political group, race, or religion and executing or imprisoning them.
It happens, everyone always thinks it can't ever happen but it most definitely can, just ask history. The idea that preventing gun violence (this won't do that anyways), is a justification for disarming citizens is disturbing and we cannot prioritize imaginary safety over real freedom.

The number of different coins and tokens has increased exponentially over the last few years. There are over 11 million listings on coinmarketcap versus around 5000 in 2019. Very few of these have any real world utility and useage beyond speculation, Monero is one of them. Despite being delisted from most major exchanges, it maintains value due to it's constant and increasing organic demand. I literally feel safer holding Monero in cold storage than I would holding dollars in a bank account, the dollar based financial system is a house of cards and I don't trust it.

The choice between Democrats and Republicans isn't much of a choice at all, it is an illusion created by your enslavers so that you continue to accept your enslavement.
Both parties support the child killing Israeli government, central banking/unrestrained money printing, gun control, the war on drugs, mass deportations of migrants, the worthless Covid vaccines, mass surveillance, forced "education", putting our country in massive amounts of debt, and stealing your money to pay for all of it.
Neither one support free markets and the Federal Government has continued grown in size and power far beyond the limits of the Constitution under the rule of each party. Both parties are in bed with corporations and banks while destroying small businesses. If you think anything will change for the better by continuing to put Democrats or Republicans in the White House or Congress, you need to wake the fuck up. The lesser of two evils is still evil.
