I now have 2 frens IRL who are starting their Bitcoin journey.

One is going too fast for their experience, the other is seeing all the traditional negative pointers we have learned to understand and accept.

For both of them, I am giving the same information, but delivered in very different ways.

While doing this, I am self aware enough to realise I could be seen by them and others, very much as a preacher, cult leader or a snake oil salesman.

We are in a cult and normies see this.

The realisation is that everything is a cult; politics, traditional media, the law, geographical borders, gender, age. Everything……

Choose your cult.

Cult follows a single leader - these aren’t cults but rather social norms

We follow a single absent leader Satoshi Nakamoto, we worship his right hand, Hal Finney who died for us.

His disciples walk among us today: Adam Back, Nick Szabo, Wei Dai.

We have deposed false prophets; Craig Wright, SBF, CZ and Roger Ver.

We extend the olive branch to Roger Ver in his time of fiat tax need.

Shall I go on?

Satoshi and Hal just died... they didn't die for me.

We don't know what happened to Satoshi, but correct Hal didn't die for you.

Len Sassaman, interesting 🤔

I don’t think Satoshi was American. Used too much British English in their writings and code.

And didn’t use any Australian English either 😉 😂

😂

Depends on the level of depravity. Humans can’t evolve or better ourselves if we keep choosing immorality

I had recently listened to a podcast that really brought out something that I had never actually thought about before is the colts that we reside INR the cults in which we align with other individualswho align with what we are pretending we are not.

Then as soon as we point out the truth to those other individualsthen they no longer align with you and ostracize you and shame you for not confirming their biases towards the falsities that they worship.

Choose your cults wisely 😄

Sell that snake oil!
