You don’t get to call yourself anti-state one day and cheer for the state’s violence the next.
A lot of “conservative” bitcoiners who talk nonstop about freedom have shown their hand when “government agents” killed Americans and the responding with excuses, instead of outrage even in the facet of blatant corruption and violations of the1st, 4th, 5th, 9th, and 10th Amendments.
That isn’t decentralization. That’s not “opting out.” It isn’t even logical or defensible. That’s brand loyalty to power, bootlicking sycophancy.
Rights don’t exist for comfort or hobbies. They exist for when authority overreaches and accountability disappears. Thise first two amendments? Those are how the Founding Fathers armed us all against authoritarianism.
Ethos is choosing principles over outcomes. Blind loyalty is choosing power because it feels familiar.
Pick one. If it’s loyalty, you were never a bitcoiner.
