Bitcoin is capital. If leftist are too stuck in their stupid ideology to not want free market money, then that's on them. Under a Bitcoin standard, there will still be different classes of people. The only difference will be that the rich will earn their money. The leftist may actually hate that system even more, if they can't easily steal from the productive to give to the non productive. The commies will fight hard against a Bitcoin standard. Give it a bit more time, and they'll be the ones arguing that not using the nation state's currency is treason.

argue it however you want. the more ppl adopt btc, the better. left leaning folks have a different understanding. its not about free market money. capitalism is that with the privileged money printer class and always has been throughout history. we never had independent money for real. ending all money printers means everyone is in the same class. sure. some richer than others, but same rules apply l. class war ends. capitalism is mostly the rich getting rich by the printer access. VCs... banks... also govrrnemnts. did elon earn his billions? nope. openAI? nope. none of them is break evenhow did they get money access. by convincing capitalists to print money for them. leftists should join bitcoin. 🙂 division between "left" and "right" is just divide and conquer by the fiat money rulers. the actual capitalists since the dawn of capitalism 🙂 most leftists are poor. the rich are not leftists. they are fakers, corrupt, just like on all sides. rich money printer folks - a.k.a the trur capitalists in any real world derived definition instead of some textbook never happened in reality yet definition

i am not talking about the leftists that claim tonrepresent the left. The media or politicians. I mean the people who listen to them. The people who you meet in every day life if you stop and look. Whether its a nurse doing over hours or a volunteer to pick up trash in the city park or people organizing a flee market in the backyard of the local library or the the ones volunteering to build homeless shelters or host refugees at their homes and other little every day life gestures. many have little to know financial/business/economic literacy and just trust the narrative of people who talk about the right values. I met a freelance cook who is also a musician and organises yoga sessions and mostly in community places where he might not get paid, but he can eat for free. plenty of people socially engaged they all vote and are usually very afraid of trump who is supposedly hitler 🙃 and the ones i met werent rich at all - quite the opposite. fact is. bitcion mass adoption ends all classes. we are apl the same under bitcion. thats a bitcoin fact. no money printer for nobody 🙂
