Chris,
I’m not sure where all your hostility toward me the last couple months has come from. You make some very strange accusations. If I was trying to lie about where I’m from, why wouldn’t I actually lie and just say I was born in San Francisco? What I tell people is true – I grew up in the East Bay, but spent a lot of time in the city as a kid because my grandmother lived here. If you don’t want to count that as me being an SF native, fine, whatever. I wasn’t trying to deceive anyone about it. What would even be the motive to lie to a Reason audience about something like that? You think libertarians in the rest of the country/world care whether I was born in SF or the East Bay? Sheesh.
Jeff, I appreciate your kind words and vote of confidence.
Love & Liberty,
((( starchild )))

Hi Jeff,Thanks for stepping into the foray. I don’t think you watched that video because Starchild lays out his deception from the beginning. He claims to be a native San Franciscan because he visited his grandma here. The only people I know that lie about their origin stories are frauds.
I could have gotten the ExComm to override everything Starchild said or wanted to do but I didn’t because that would equate to a purge. You never showed up. No one wanted to show up because they don’t like working with Starchild. Neither do you. No one does and that’s the point. He has no real credibility outside of the people who are on this forum. No normie feels comfortable around him and that will be the issue whether or not I’m involved. Prove me wrong.

Chris, your accusations of Starchild are absurd. His positions are well documented, and are always based on libertarian principles and compassion. His willingness and ability to pitch libertarian solutions to problems that San Franciscans care about is outstanding.He’s a fantastic representative for libertarianism. His earned goodwill and experience give him an audience of eager listeners at countless meetings ranging from student groups to police commissions. His passion, intelligence, and patience effectively plant libertarian ideas in minds that would not have otherwise been exposed to them.
He’s been able to spread liberty and maintain a safe harbor for libertarians in a place otherwise hostile to libertarianism.
zeitgeist
I’m aware of the zeitgeist that you represent: entitled Twitter-mob populism. You got riled up on Twitter, took over an IRL grassroots community, insulted longtime activists and potential allies, couldn’t get the other Mises Caucus-appointed officers to any meetings, failed to fulfill any election promises, and blamed it on the one person who showed up to do the work.dennz https://forum.lpsf.org/u/dennz

That’s fine Chris….it’s good you came to that realization for yourself and for the LPSF. Personally, I’ve lost much of my interest in politics other than neighborhood issues. “There’s no political solution” is my new mantra. The LPSF is “up for grabs”. Thank you for giving it a try.Mike Denny

Hi Mike,I paid the $50 state fee to keep the LPSF out of penalties from the State. I know we hate the state but it is required for an LP Institution. The prior chair & treasurer didn’t file at all and I used Mises Caucus contacts to get the ~$3,000 in fines accrued waived. There’s no marketing material at all. There’s no outreach to anyone other than who Starchild deems acceptable. Starchild realistically entertained someone who was released from SF General (junkie) who came into a meeting while 2 other real prospects were there. He has no vision other than promoting him. I just want to get rid of the checkbook and be done with this farce. This is after “working” with Starchild 1 on 1 for the past year. No one is able to work with him. If you can, then do it. I can’t.

Chris,I appreciate you including the link to my video interview with Adam Kokesh, because if you watch the whole video, I think I clearly explain that I do support the Libertarian Party, but that the movement – the ideas of freedom, not any particular institution – is ultimately what deserve our allegiance and support.
Did you come to our meeting today? Did anyone else? I’m in the room at the library, did get here a bit late, but haven’t seen anyone else either in person or joining us online.
As for being unorganized, I’ll plead partially guilty to that.
Love & Liberty,
