As a philosopher and leader, I focus on promoting principles for individuals to apply to their particular lives. That’s why I will alway say, in general, bitcoin works by soverign agents acting in their self-interest, so think about what your interests are, and then act accordingly. Since you ask about my particular interests, here is how I apply that principle to myself. I have no need for arbitrary data. I have never had need for arbitrary data. I don’t care how effecient nodes propogate meme pool data to give me an accurate estimate for fees. I just want my transactions to be secure and decentralized, and am not willing to trade that off for anything. So I run software that serves my interests. I can do that, and stand next to someone who puts monkey pics in arbitrary data, because I believe that Satoshi’s network consensus decentralizes arbitration on contentious matters, and produces a better answer than any individual could. I’m fighting against tribalism, becuse it is antithetical to the individual sovereign You can’t outsource your sovereignty. So I won’t tell you what particular thing to do, just emphasize the principles that make bitcoin bitcoin, and encourage you to be a sovereign. but Im fucking sick of childish name calling and useless drama. Advocate for your interests, make the affirmative case for why X serves an individual better than Y, but i’m done with the overselling of “bitcoin is dead if you don’t agree with me” make the case believe in bitcoin believe in its consensus mechanism participate if consensus allows monkey pics on chain or csam, hate it as much as i do, im not going to leave bitcoin becuase of it. this is how the sausage is made, so let’s just make the sausage the tension is good, but the drama doesn’t serve anyone it just makes a lot of gay retarded noise
