Weren't we just talking about how they justify going after things, like a BBS - by conflating it with something else - and by changing the definitions of things until everyone is technically that thing?

And most of our fellow citizens are stupid and gullible enough to fall for it.

"Only dem terrorists, child traffickers, and drug dealerz use dat CryptoCoin! We gotta ban it, so our government can fight the bad guyz!" 

Dem terrorists, child traffickers, and drug dealers... 

ARE the Government. 

My latest blog in response to the push to criminalize and abolish Cryptocurrencies:

So apparently there's a new shitcoin that you can mine on your phone called Pi, it's not really live yet but you can get in on the beta.

Maybe it turns into something, maybe it doesn't, but you have to tap it once a day to keep mining it, and that's all, so I figure for now it doesn't hurt to get a few.  If nothing else it's free.

Weirdly, I have enough CPU and GPU power in my house to run a small datacenter - I suspect that I could be mining a ton of bitcoin. 

But I'm selfish. I want all my cycles to myself. I don't share with SETI or other science or humanity things, either. I'm like the Smaug of Instruction Cycles. I just like to lie on them and know they're all mine. I don't want to do anything else with them except enjoy that I have them. :D

McConnell decides that he doesn't want to make the Republican Party obsolete, after all.

Too bad. If he had gone after Trump, Trump had formed a Real Republican Party, and ran Cruz as President - it would have been the end of the GOP. 

Romney, on the other hand, has made it clear that he understands he'll never be the Republican President of the United States of America.

I once voted for a democrat for president -- Romney in 2012.

He doesn't even try to hide it anymore.  He's a far left communist socialist America-hating demoKKKrat.  The only reason he holds any office at all right now is because he's a Moron and he ran in Utah.  They can do better than that.

Fortunately I did not. When the choices between Democrat and Republican were terrible or LESS terrible, I consistently voted Libertarian. Kinda proud of that, at this point. My gut instincts were right. 

I didn't mind if the Republicans lost when the choices they were giving me were dog food vs. dog shit. I found something a little more appetizing than their two-party choices and hoped that a big enough rejection of their "they offer you dog shit, we at least offer you dog food," choice would get them to wake up. 

That is what we need to do as the next pacifist movement - reject them completely down the line, no matter what the impact. The Democrats won't ever do that. A Biden/Harris administration proves that. They'll always vote party loyal. 

But the GOP should be destroyed by this - allowing something else to rise in its place.

We can only hope.  I'm not sure peace is an option.

Agreed.
