RE: A Flag is a Legitimate Market Expression (it also comes with consequences).
Thanks for your thoughtful and very introspective discussion of why one might use flags here on Steemit.
I tend to avoid them as far as possible, but certainly haven't yet thought as deeply about the subject as you have.
On a semi-related topic, have you ever heard of, or perhaps attended Libertopia? Coming up next month in San Diego.
Hey! No, I haven’t heard of it but I’ll look into it. Thanks. Are you gonna be going?
Yes, I hope to be there. I'm actually one of the invited speakers.
It has been several years since Libertopia last convened, and I spoke at the last couple of conferences. I don't know the reasons for the hiatus, but I'm really glad that it is coming back. I'm also very happy that they are moving back to their original venue, Humphrey's By The Bay, because I prefer it greatly over where they were meeting for the last couple of sessions.
The Libertopia conference is an amazing assemblage of voluntaryists, minarchists, and constitutionalists, and the sessions and discussions that go on are amazing. I've met some fine and fascinating people there, including (for example) the likes of Larken Rose, Paul Rosenberg, Jeffrey Tucker, and Jeff Berwick, and gotten to know a couple of them as "people" rather than "celebrities."
