 Unpopular Opinion: I hope the halving doesn't fall on 4/20.  
 Why? 
 You know it’s gonna happen 😅 
 I'd love to celebrate 3 things in the same day 🥰 
 I hope it does ^^ #memepower 
 what have you become? 
 i’m with you jimmy. if it’s on 4/21 our new theme song could be “one toke over the line.” but then we got 4 years of that mess to deal with. 
 I hope it lands on 840,000. 
 Reasoning:

4/20 feels very left-libertarian to me. That is, the people that are more concerned with having access to all kinds of drugs and abortion-on-demand than sound money, property rights and freedom of assembly.

4/19 is, for me, the way better date. That's the day that the American Revolution started (Battle of Lexington and Concord in 1775). That's a much better meme than "OMG weed day!" 
 420 is also hitlers birthday lol 
 this we can agree on 
 All kinds of drugs? Thats like saying I don’t like bitcoin because of all the people shitcoining. There is only one reason for 4/20 4:20. It’s the reason your favorite music exists. IYKYK 
 Terrible take. 
 Bitcoin doesn’t care what you think. 
 but that’s options expiration day 😎 
 Yeah… no thanks https://image.nostr.build/f8036c4951268398a3dd1dfde28a132f3a12d6e780b278987e7c62d973466abf.jpg  
 lol you guys know bitcoin don't give two f*cks about your opinion 
 This means absolutely fucking nothing! People are acting like traditional FIAT market and thinking like them all. What the shame,you guys sucks ! 😵‍💫😕 
 I only want it on 4/20 because it's a Saturday, and my meetup always meets on the 3rd Saturday of each month anyway, so our next meetup can double as a halving party.

If not for that, any other day would do. The 19th would be fine for the reason you mentioned, or the 21st because it's a 21. 
 Ultimately it doesn't matter. But I'm for it because it's funny & memes spread awareness. Also the left is the crowd that needs to find bitcoin the most. I mean Peter Mccormack posted that gov't is the global problem today. There is no way of better reversing statist insanity than them finding bitcoin IMO. 
 If it does the matrix is a jokestr
