Freedom breeds consent which creates reciprocity, accountability and knowledge. Centralized control breeds hate, resentment and fear creating a polarization undermining social and economic progress. Be #Libertarian #amliberty

You want to change how people vote in a moment you need to play to their deepest hopes and fears in anyway possible. To change how they vote forever, relationships and discussion is where it’s at. #amliberty https://t.co/cLMMZvXdOl

Change doesn’t come by competing over who can pound their chest the loudest to claim their superior ability to isolate themselves and disagree. It happens by building relationships, having conversations, and listening to be heard. It’s not edgy or cool, but it works. #amliberty

Your ability to speak, think and express isn’t protected by your profession or your religion. You are an individual and we all have a right to express ourselves. The minute we say some have more privilege to speak than others there is no longer free speech. #amliberty

Why does depolarization matter? A lot of the extreme positions people hold are in fear, hate and resentment of each other because of polarization. Reverse the polarization you reverse the extreme desire for control of one another. #amliberty

Here’s what matters, political solutions lead to political battles. Political battles lead to promoting fear/resentment among 51% of voters against the other 49%. Maybe we should ask for less political solutions if we want more unity, peace and coexistance. #Amliberty https://t.co/HF6FGc4ikA

When you push people away you disagree with you reaffirm the fears they have of other perspectives being a threat, making them dig their heels and become worse. You can only fight fear/hate with love/hope, it’s that simple but not easy. #amliberty https://t.co/a0bdFKBER0
