Agreed. Just make sure you remember that one is a democracy and one is a mafia dictatorship. Democracy is by no means perfect. Absolutely not. It never will be, just like you and I and every other citizen. But as Winston Churchill put it, it is the best we have. The West may have much that needs fixing, we just need to make sure we don't brake more than we fix in the process. Anyway, the way towards a better society is definatelly not giving Putin more influence
Also, given that you live in the west, you probably have more opportunities, acccess to informatian and freedom of speech than 99,9% of the people that lived before you. Never forget that
Definately. But my perception is that many regard themselves as smart critical thinkers and ''everyone'' who doesnt get bitcoin as ignorant and or close minded. I don't know, just didn't think 'opting out' included lessons from the past
No one will be the next Hitler. But someone will be the next to use the same textbook as dictators has throughout time. As far as Hitler goes, I can't think of anyone in the western hemisphere that resembles him more right now
This is such a win for Moscow. I thought Bitcoiners were all about seeing 2nd and 3rd effects and not just believe what you get served. Especiallly when it comes to Putin. He is a cumpulsive liar. If you don't think many people found it compelling to listen to Hitler in 1939, you better check yourself before you wreck youself

For all you people out there who regard yourselves as smart thinkers and that are of the perception that you calculate the 2nd order effects of events. If you support Putin (in any way) you better check yourself.

If you don't believe people found it compelling to listen to Hitler in 1939 (also outside of Germany)you are fooling yourself. Apply Bitcoin/critical thinking to Putin please
