It almost doesn’t matter whether someone calls themself a Nazi, a communist, or a nationalist. The structure of power has already been conceded. Once you accept the idea of a leader or a state with absolute authority over the individual, the labels become interchangeable.

If Hitler had woken up one day and decided that nationalization should be done in the name of the proletariat rather than the Volk, nothing in his system could have stopped him.
If Stalin had decided that class identity should be replaced with racial identity, nothing in his system could have stopped him either.

Because once you erase individual rights, the borders between ideologies dissolve. The dictator’s whim becomes the law. The ideology just becomes the aesthetic justification for power.

The real issue isn’t:

• Nazi or Communist
• Right or Left
• Nationalist or Internationalist

The real issue is:

Is the individual protected from the state, or is the state allowed to rule the individual?

If the state outranks the person, you have already accepted the principle that made both Hitler and Stalin possible. You have already surrendered the only safeguard that prevents atrocities.

This is why debating labels is a distraction.

The danger is not the branding.
The danger is the concentration of power.

Once a system allows a government or ruler to override individual rights, everything else is decoration.

The only real defense against tyranny is the recognition that:

No person, no party, and no nation has the right to own the life of an individual.

At that point, it doesn’t matter what color the flag is.

Here’s what @HesterPeirce said last night at the Coin Center Annual Dinner as she revealed she was wearing a t-shirt with decentralized exchange code printed on it.

ResearchCoin $RSC would be so much cooler if you could own a fraction of the IP generated by research.

Poverty does not cause crime.

Poverty does not make you stab an innocent bystander multiple times in the neck.

There are Asian countries where people live on dollars a day and they are still safer than any American city.

Just stop with the excuses.

1/ Always jealous of the lawyers/policy folks that do monster threads, so going to try to 🧵 for the President's WG Report (it's a 🐉 = 160 pp). Big kudos to @davidsacks47 and @BoHines for their tireless efforts on this. I think I start with "Let's dive in" 🪂

Taking responsibility is a superpower. Embrace it.

Works in crypto too and self-custody is the ultimate expression of it. No-one can save you, but no-one can stop you either.

Try it with @baseapp ;)

Complaining about a problem without posing a solution is called whining.
