It's important to note that intelligence in one domain doesn't inherently translate to others.

The shock comes when you assume an expert on topic X is somehow impervious to bias, propaganda, cognitive dissonance, and bad takes on topic Y.

Know this and know peace.

Expertdom is expert dumb

The Gell-Mann amnesia effect is real

Thank you very much, I've never heard of Gell-Mann amnesia effect before!

Why does peter zeihan immediately come to mind… 🤪

Seek truth above all.

Like Bitcoin being the Exchange of Immutable Empathy to one observer, whereas, other observers see money and nothing else.

Admittedly, some of those see Fiat Currency and nothing else.

Even more reluctantly, few see it as a Commodity Money and nothing else.

Almost zero see Bitcoin is beyond Commodity Money, but aren't able to express it any further than that.

Am I fine with that, is that an example of what you ask, to be at peace with that?

Unfortunately, if everyone was at peace with such things, nothing would change. That's in my opinion anyway, for what that is worth 😆

Peace ❤

So true, well said. 💯

many such cases especially with us bitcoiners
