I think I’ll use this thread to announce my candidacy for the presidency of the United States. I hereby declare that I am now immune to all prosecution until after the election. Donations will be accepted in cash or gold bullion.

Silly, they’ve moved on from cash and hard currency. It’s all about the NFT churn mill now.

I’ll be releasing my own “illegal things I’ve done” NFR (Not For Release) so they’re even RARER than NFTs soon.

Arguing for rights of an individual running for president (as it is not defined at all to my knowledge) is an interesting strategy and does seem like something worth defining. By that I mean for it to be defined that if you’re running for president, you have no additional rights. Get out of here. You’re just another citizen. Quit making the “i’m special” legal challenge. Get bent.

Yeah that’s the thing, anybody can claim to be running for president. It’s 2023, there’s no general election for mort than a year. Even IF you’re on a ballot I think that doesn’t make you above the law… Else we’d suddenly have a bunch of crooks getting on ballots to avoid facing legal repercussions

If he’s successful here, I’m declaring my candidacy for President as a Republican. Since Republican candidates for President apparently can’t be prosecuted, I figure I’ve got an 18 month crime spree ahead of me…

Be back soon…

But I think this is the appropriate response via civil disobedience. Go through the proper channels to declare as a presidential candidate and then do fairly mild shit to prove a point, en masse. Speeding tickets, jay walking, etc.

They’re left with two options: limit who can run, which is antithetical to the whole fucking system and founding principles… Or ensure that they don’t have special rights… Or permit anarchy.
