I don't believe that it's inconsistent to be suspicious of people and also be totally comfortable with deploying the technology, because you know its fractal potential. It's a vote for politics. It's a vote for the will to politics. There will be people, a one percent of people, that can use this stuff effectively, develop it, implement it. That's why it's necessary. That's why civilization exists, so those few people can exercise incredible techniques.

I actually think the common anarchist position is that people are fundamentally good, blah blah blah. I don't believe that.

The sad thing about Trump is that everybody is secretly really relieved he got elected, of the people I know - the professional left and academic left.

It's sad that as crushed Millennials we live in the shadow of our parents, our fathers. We aren't willing to murder our government. It's like, come on, why is this scary? Jesus, every generation before you was willing to kick ass.

Any democratic sentiment propels my politics.

Specifically within the AR15 community, gun owners can now make the capacity magazines for themselves and there is no need to serialize them. People don't like to register their firearms any more. They don't trust the government.

I love the example of Jefferson because he's willing to murder his government and then he becomes a president and then his face is in a mountain. Just because he exercised his power.
