Old people are much more selfish than in the past and it's because of fiat money.

They used to build things for the future, work on things for the next generation, making things that they wouldn't get to see the completion of.

But now, they're borrowing against the future, bringing consumption forward to take stuff away from the next generation, saddling them with incredible debt. Furthermore, they refuse to relinquish power, staying way past when they've lost their fastball.

They don't get much respect because they don't deserve it. We need Bitcoin to put things back to a sustainable order.

With Bitcoin, we can pass the time, energy, and work we’ve accumulated onto the next generation.

What does that mean? What do you feel in that comment contradicts Christian beliefs or values?

Also 1 Timothy 5:1-2 and I’m saying this to help you understand the situation, not trying to cause trouble.

I agree. Broken money breaks a lot of things.

People are much more selfish than they were in the past.

Fiat incentivises people to pillage what they can from anything that has value.

Older people better understand the game being played & some have the capital to play it. They don't trust that the younger generation know how to play.

Younger people feel locked out of the game & most can't afford to get onto the field. They don't necessarily know how rigged the game is for everyone.

It's not the people or their age, it's the game & it's ever changing, arbitrarily created rules. The game concentrates wealth into the hands of a few & the few happen to be old.

Find a better game - find Bitcoin.

You are wrong to condemn all old people, when it is only a small percentage - those controlling the machinery of fiat currency, and those controlling political decisions - who should be condemned.
