His Twitter bio literally says - "From each according to their ability, to each according to their needs" .
Also there was interview with him about topic by Peter McCormack - Bitcoin: A View From The Left with Ben Arc.
I've heard the interview. He's a left wing guy for sure. Maybe a Marxist? Honestly, I get along better with these types of folks than I do die hard Republican or Democrats. Thanks

I talked with him about the topic during BHB. He says that communism isn't bad, Stalinism is bad.
In any case I have big respect for him for all he is doing with Bitcoin (and now also Nostr).

Thanks, I've talked with folks with a similar view. Really can't wrap my head around why they aren't just anarchists but I've always enjoyed the discussion with folks like this. Mostly because I think we share a lot of common ground with my issues with corporatism/fascism. I have heterodox views and I find it fascinating to talk with someone else that does as well.
And I know the first anarchists where from the left. Rothbard didn't invent it :)

I think anarchism just has a bad rep
Funnily, far left is also anarchist territory, at least here in the EU :)
That's how the circles closes ...
I think it was @DarthCoin who explained that anarchism doesn't mean without rules, it just means without rulers.
That's when I started to like anarchism.

Oh, you mentioned that part already :)
