Credentialism and appeals to authority used to be highly effective means for the parasite class to control the narrative via gatekeepers.

In the information age where anyone can educate themselves on practically anything, this simply doesn’t work.

We’ve seen the track record of Nobel winners like Krugman and Bernanke whilst relatively unknown Bitcoiners have correctly predicted massive market collapses and financial turmoil.

NYT and WaPo journalists win Pulitzers for complete fabrications whilst randoms on Substack document the real corruption and scandal.

Health officials in the most prestigious roles have been proven wrong repeatedly whilst gymbros fix people’s lives with carnivore and shaming sunscreen.

On and on we see this in practically every discipline; the regime puppets get it wrong and unknown plebs work out the truth.

This isn’t sustainable, the trust in institutions is essentially gone and when people realise the Emperor has no clothes, things will shift in ways we couldn’t have imagined. They did it to themselves though, with hubris and ideology and arrogance and greed.

As the next financial elites I hope Bitcoiners learn the lessons from the clown show and build more robust frameworks to ensure we don’t end up in such a mess again.

Well said!! I feel the same. I’d like to add that I also hope that the people who current remain asleep wake up and do so quickly 🙏🏽

Knowledge has been decentralized and now the former gate keepers of knowledge are loosing their credibility as we can now verify their accuracy instead of trusting it.

The same thing is happening with money due to bitcoin, we can now keep all financial systems, businesses, and enterprises in check because we don’t need to trust, we can verify.

You shall know the truth and the truth will set you free.

Very well said. The fiat money has given us fiat everything and credentials are laughable to those who are paying attention.

It is a thrilling time to be alive.
