Are there bitcoiners who support dictatorships that want to subjugate free people?
Yeah, @Solomonsatoshi
It's like any other capitalist technology, like washing machines or private jets, or free speech. They rationalize using it for themselves even while their own coercive system would regulate such things out of existence.
Interesting then that most voting on this issue support the cancellation of arms sales to Taiwan.
Perhaps Bitcoiners understand how dependent USA is now upon China and how USA must kowtow to China if USA is to retain any of its remaining wealth and power.
Its not a matter of preferring US imperialism or Chinese state capitalism, its simply a matter of facing reality and dealing with it.
Since USA is increasingly exposed as being subservient to Zionist war criminals less and less people believe the hype that USA somehow still stands for freedom - more and more people see USA for the increasingly oppressive imperialist tool of Zionist war criminals that it has been for decades.
Note- 80% of Stackers oppose the US-Israeli invasion of Iran.
You really don't understand these people at all. They said no to government doing stuff. No one is saying the communists are legitimate.
'No one is saying the communists are legitimate.'
Dream on!
Trump is saying China is legitimate - he is literally kowtowing to Xi and the CCP because he needs the rare earths they hold a monopoly over and without which the US military industrial complex is crippled.
TAIPEI—https://www.wsj.com/topics/place/taiwan has long relied on the U.S. to provide it with weapons to stave off an attack by China. But following https://www.wsj.com/world/china/five-takeaways-from-the-trump-xi-summit-73a21236?mod=article_inline with Chinese leader Xi Jinping, American support for the island’s defense—vital to https://www.wsj.com/topics/place/taiwan’s survival as a self-ruled democracy—is in question.
In remarks that aired after he left Beijing last week, Trump said a $14 billion package of U.S. arms for Taiwan that awaits his approval is “a very good negotiating chip” with China.
While Beijing, which views Taiwan as part of its sovereign territory, has committed to a policy of “peaceful unification” with Taiwan since 1979, successive Chinese leaders, including Xi, have also refused to renounce the possible use of military force to try to seize the island.
Trump’s remark could embolden China https://www.wsj.com/world/china/how-china-chinese-invasion-taiwan-ba7e3916?mod=article_inline against Taiwan, some analysts said.
“Trump’s public openness to negotiating with Beijing over America’s posture on Taiwan will serve as the diplomatic equivalent of a matador waving a red flag in front of a bull,” Ryan Hass, director of the Brookings Institution’s China center, wrote in an online commentary. “It will cause Beijing to intensify its efforts to test the boundaries of what it can gain in terms of loosening America’s commitment to Taiwan’s security.”
Trump’s comment, made in a Fox interview that aired after he left Beijing, has made how the U.S. handles the arms package a litmus test of his administration’s support for Taiwan.
Trump said in the interview that U.S. policy on Taiwan hadn’t changed.
“If the president does not proceed with the arms sale to Taiwan, he will jeopardize U.S.-Taiwan relations and weaken U.S. credibility globally,” said retired Navy Rear Adm. Mark Montgomery, now a senior fellow at Washington-based Foundation for Defense of Democracies, which supports a tougher stance toward China.
Taiwan President Lai Ching-te weighed in Wednesday, declaring that Taiwan’s status isn’t up to China or the U.S. to determine.
“Taiwan’s future cannot be decided by foreign forces,” Lai said in a speech marking the anniversary of his 2024 inauguration. “The future of Taiwan can only be decided by the 23 million people of Taiwan.”
Lai said he would continue efforts to strengthen the island’s defenses and is willing to engage with China on equal terms. His remarks echoed a stance he has maintained since he took office. Beijing https://www.wsj.com/world/china/xi-hosts-taiwan-opposition-leader-to-draw-island-closer-to-china-3a0282e6?mod=article_inline with Lai, and has at times conducted large-scale military exercises to pressure his administration.
“We pursue stability, but not at the expense of our sovereignty and democratic way of life. This is Taiwan’s bottom line,” Lai said.
Taiwan depends on U.S. military supplies such as advanced jet fighters and missile systems, as other countries shy from selling major weapons systems to the island to avoid retaliation from China.'

Very cool site!
Is there not some risk involved in using your wallet to sign an equation provided by an external party?
This is what is required to vote on these polls.
Are you not risking the security of your entire wallet?

So there are risks.
Yes, unless you do what Claude says in the end. But then you won't win )))
Alternatively, you can move your bitcoin to a new address after participating.
Yes, sure, if I remember to do that
I am not trusting my wealth and savings to Claude or what any other bullshit AI 'intelligence' spout.
The points raised however to make clear you are taking several risks by using your wallet to sign for an external application.
Palestinian ‘lives are not valuable’, say Israeli soldiers after Gaza ‘jungle’
Israeli soldiers have described a climate of dehumanisation, permissive rules of engagement and the routine killing of Palestinians during what was officially supposed to be a ceasefire in Gaza.
In testimonies to The Associated Press news agency, reservists who served in Gaza between last October and January said Israeli troops frequently opened fire on Palestinians approaching or crossing the so-called “Yellow Line”, an often poorly marked boundary separating Israeli-occupied areas from the rest of the enclave.
One soldier recalled fellow troops celebrating after striking a vehicle carrying Palestinians, killing everyone inside. “It was a jungle,” the soldier said. “After the ceasefire, the order was: If someone crosses the line, you shoot them.”
Soldiers told The AP that troops often fired on people without knowing who they were.
Another reservist said commanders repeatedly emphasised holding territory at all costs. “There was a general feeling that human lives are not valuable,” he said.
One soldier dismissed the notion that a ceasefire existed at all. “To call it a ceasefire is a joke,” he said.
