Prepare for more Govt ESG FUD Attacks Next Week (Patreon)

FROM JASON LOWERY:
This is going to get me in trouble, but here it goes. The reason why I didnt "go dark" is b/c i got word of the OPOTUS 30% miner tax proposal. This is just the beginning of a targeted ESG FUD campaign. Next week, NYT will follow with a PoW hit piece & introduce the concept of "marginal emissions accounting" to spread more #Bitcoin ESG FUD.
Once you guys are ready to admit that #SOFTWAR is exactly the right argument to make at the right time, and that hashing should indeed be protected under the US 2nd amendment, i'll be waiting & ready to go. Until then, good luck trying to battle ESG FUD. You can try all you want to talk about how efficient BTC's electricity usage is, but it's a sisyphean task.
Here's the argument that will actually win:
People have the right to *physically* secure the property they value, regardless of whether it's using electric power or kinetic power. And it would especially be unethical to deny free people the right to physically secure their property using non lethal means like electricity.
Moreover, PoW represents a revolutionary approach to cybersecurity & digital-age warfighting. Not supporting PoW would be a national strategic security hazard. We are at a turning point in history, and we have to support #Bitcoin sooner and faster than our adversaries do. And the clock is ticking...
It's all in this thesis. You just have to have to courage to use it.
