We just eliminated them in 2025 so it’s the latest victory to brag about

This is not an article about trans people. The article is about a movement of Libertarians in New Hampshire. Here is the caption of Carla’s photo. She is not trans. She is a woman.

It is working. We have been here for 10 years!  We estimate that roughly 10,000 Libertarians have moved to New Hampshire since we started. 🙂

She is a woman. Her name is Carla. If you read the article, you would know that. No assumptions needed 🙂

I envision a world where women celebrate their choices in fashion, standing united against the barriers of judgment and shaming.

That book was about the Free Town Project.  That ended in 2016. The Free State Project came later.

If you read the book, they talk about the launch of the Free State Project at the end.

I recommend it. Very good read.

The Simple Path To Wealth

The Simple Path to Wealth by JL Collins advocates for financial independence through simple investing strategies, primarily focusing on low-cost index funds to build wealth over time. Collins emphasizes the importance of saving, effective budgeting, and maintaining a long-term perspective to achieve financial freedom without relying on complex financial schemes.

Respectfully… if someone came here looking for a note-taking app, would you recommend pad and paper?

I am not looking for advice on my local issue advocacy, I am looking for a software solution to host a petition.

I think cryptpad will do the job.

Okay buddy, you are way overthinking this. I’m not trying to create the next change.org here. The scope of this is a petition to put a stop sign on main street and get maybe 50 people to sign on.

I could always use a Google Form or a Wordpress plugin for this, I thought there might be a more private way to go about it.

I did not expect all of this debate over a software recommendation, haha.

For your information, petitions can be quite effective at the local level. The problem is, if you sign a petition on Change.org or something like that, they start bombarding you with emails to sign other similar petitions (kind of like the recommendation algorithms on sites like Youtube or Facebook).

People who sign these things know full well what they are doing. Advocacy is not anonymous. I am guess the folks giving me grief about asking for a petition tool won’t sign them, and that’s fine. I just don’t see why there is so much hate.

Another option I considered is a form to mail script. I thought that this is a common use case and something would already exist, haha.

All apps collect some information. Piefed requires your email to sign up.

I don’t want the free petition websites online getting my personal network’s info and sharing or selling it, hence the interest in self hosting.

I was agreeing with you 🙂

It has to be approved in both houses and be signed by the Governor to become law. So far it has passed the New Hampshire State House.

Well for two reasons:

1. When someone makes a blanket statement calling an entire group of people “racist fucks”, I don’t think any amount of reasoning will change their mind.
2. The second half of their comment was “No one takes them seriously”. Now that is a point I am willing to debate. When a political group controls roughly 20% of the elected seats in the state house and they have legislative victories to point to, I don’t think it’s fair to say that no one takes them seriously.

Okay fine. We can discuss it more if you want…

The intent of the quote in both my example and yours is to say “don’t bow to a king”. In my case, the King of England, in your case the Penn Family. You are correct that the way it was expressed in your context was a state legislator refusing to give a prominent family a tax break. In my case a refusal to accept terms to maintain status as a British colony. Either way, the intent of the quote is to not give up your liberty for a false sense of security.

I think the “No Kings” interpretation is a good one, given the recent No Kings pretests in the US, eh?

You shared your interpretation and I shared mine. I don’t know how going in circles benefits anyone.

Well, we will just have to agree to disagree on this one. 🙂
