Cold-beer, strong crypto and REALPOLITIK

Cryptocurrency is right-republican leaning by origin and becomes more democratic-socialist leaning by popularity and usage. Just as holding a sovereign accountable used to be the prerogative of barons - till it was increasingly democratized. https://www.coindesk.com/policy/2021/10/18/crypto-is-too-big-for-partisan-p… Cryptoanarchy is also bigger than any crypto-currency or any collective of republics &/or democracies / theocracies /corporate entities. We're better than any earthly power since 2010. Its time they groveled before us. There's no shame in losing to a superior foe.

Its time cypherpunks dropped Jim Bell like a hot rock - and its time humanity moved to Milky Way Galaxy years* - the Xtian calendar needs to go the way of the Julian. *The galactic year, also known as a cosmic year, is the duration of time required for the Sun to orbit once around the center of the Milky Way Galaxy. One is 230 million years. ... The galactic year provides a conveniently usable unit for depicting cosmic and geological time periods together

Grarpanps Garbage Scow of Disinformation is spamming this list
by professor rat 19 Oct '21

You say 'reactionary coin-hoarding incel' like that's a bad thing. And there are far worse things - like those Trolls that attack this list through rafts of lies and bs ( Gramps and Semich ) and the worst hate-filled bigotry combined with tactical support for the spamming Trolls ( Batshit-crazy ) Thankfully the net gives us all we need to defeat this threat and we continue to enjoy the unfettered right to destroy all those who would destroy our reputation-capital. Gramps, Batshit and Semich are all dead-trolls posting.

There's no sanctions imposed for being a complete dick on this list. ZERO. Otherwise Gramps, Batshit and Semich would have been clipped years ago. Whiney little bitches moaning about bad behavior here make me laugh. Do you pathetic morons ever listen to yourself? ( That's a Rhett Butler question, btw )

Looking back on the Crypto Wars
by professor rat 18 Oct '21

The sort of liberties presently being taken with the cypherpunk record ( archived online for all time! ) would not be unfamiliar to George Orwell. Early in life I had noticed that no event is ever correctly reported in a newspaper, but in Spain, for the first time, I saw newspaper reports which did not bear any relation to the facts, not even the relationship which is implied in an ordinary lie. I saw great battles reported where there had been no fighting, and complete silence where hundreds of men had been killed. I saw troops who had fought bravely denounced as cowards and traitors, and others who had never seen a shot fired hailed as the heroes of imaginary victories, and I saw newspapers in London retailing these lies and eager intellectuals building emotional superstructures over events that had never happened . . ." https://www.orwellfoundation.com/the-orwell-foundation/orwell/essays-and-ot…
