With the Christian god I have observed that anything “good” that happens this god gets credit. When anything “bad” happens, it is another participates fault or the “devil”. The Christian god has no flaws, and can never do any wrong, even though “it” is all powerful, knowing, and created everything.
This kind of relationship is also found in the followers of #capitalism. Any progress, innovation, or “good” thing that happens, credit is given to capitalism. Also like the Christian god, anything that exists like poverty, wealth gap, or many forms of exploitation, is not capitalisms fault. It is then blamed on corporatism, fascism, socialism, or the nearest governing authority.
If you are not able to criticize or question your beliefs to their core, what do you believe? Never be satisfied that you have learned everything. Don’t be so easily satiated by the sounds of your own beliefs being echoed off the walls.
I will poke you, prod you, and challenge you. You will not have all the answers, and I will not have all the answers. Capitalism is not your identity. In order for society and humans to make it off this rock, we will all rise above “profits” to our next level in evolution of sentient beings. Or, we will collapse under the weight of those using each other as a step ladder to leave first or be the “richest” person on earth. We, humans, and all life on the planet are in this together, there is balance in everything.
#bitcoin was literally a gift, given with no expectation of receiving anything in return. Treat it that way. Treat others that way. Use it to transact value and transcend value…don’t use it as another tool to manipulate and control. Don’t use it to hold over or lease life back to other humans.
#bitcoin will get us 95% of the way there. The last 5% is the most important and the bridge that only humans can usher the new era over on…changing the minds from status quo. Changing the ideology that has plagued us for thousands of years. People are not stepping stones and no, it does not have to be that way. Without that 5%…#Satoshi will become Oppenheimer and #bitcoin will be atomic bombs instead of nuclear energy. Tesla died poor. Satoshi left anonymously and still hasn’t moved one million coins. What will people judge your legacy on? What is your incentive, truly, ask yourself what motivates you?
