Defensive Anger: A Mask for Unstable Knowledge:
In the context of our fiat financial system, people are like those trapped in Plato’s cave, believing in the shadows cast by central banks, governments, and financial institutions. Their understanding of money isn’t based on freedom of thought or sovereignty but on externally imposed narratives about debt, inflation, and trust in fiat currency.
Since these beliefs were planted not freely developed, they lack a solid foundation. When questioned—whether about fiat's value or the sustainability of the system—people often react with fear and anger. This is because their sense of security depends on these financial illusions, and challenging them feels like a threat to their stability and survival.
In this paradigm, breaking free requires recognizing that these beliefs about money were shaped by design, not truth, and that real financial sovereignty begins with questioning the system itself.
