Recent popular book titles about Bitcoin and those which make I the case for sound money achieve that goal.

However, I think they miss the mark by implying that our current extractive monetary system arose by folly or by the failings of Keynesianism.

The system is not broken. It is operating exactly as the international banking cartel designed it.

Another shortcoming in at least one of the titles implies and states outright that the solution will arise through policy decisions of benevolent, strong leaders in the countries affected by this theft.

No man or woman is ever permitted to rise such a station without the blessing of and pledging allegiance to the cartel.

We are indeed in the fourth turning. The financial system will fail violently or over the course of a couple more decades of “kicking the can”, and be rebuilt.

If we are to exit the other side with citizens’ ability intact to conduct private, unfettered trade with one another, it’s going to be through routing AROUND what the politicians, banksters and big tech have in mind. Not from within the framework they permit or design.

I’m still convinced that Bitcoin will be a big part of the solution, and despite it being obvious that attempts to co-opt Bitcoin from within and externally are happening right now, my conviction remains the same. But we are up against forces that will kill millions and throw countries into war with one another in order to maintain their grasp on power.

I see Balkanization of the States being an eventual outcome. Not unity under federal control.

Freedom tech, from the protocol level all the way down to the hardware it runs on, is going to have to be created outside of the fence. What good are digital freedom protocols if they are running on hardware that can be powered down remotely or barred from connecting to a network through software or through digital ID-only enabled access to the internet?

I see the projects that are arising to address these vulnerabilities, and it gives me hope. I will likely be gone before the climactic final shitstorm ensues. I fear for my kids though.

What a time to be alive and to witness, and to be part of the exchange of ideas that will see us free.

All hail Cthulhu

They can only retain power by keeping it from us, there have been times in history where the noose has loosened and some truth trickled in. They needed manpower after the black death so the feudal system was reduced to a sliver of what it had been. By the time numbers had gone up, humanity had made certain advances that made it hard to put us back in the trap for a long time. But the banking cartel is very patient and we have been very inventive in finding distractions and illusions away from the path of freedom... But distractions and illusions go both ways, everything is 5th generation warfare at this stage and anyone can play in that game...

Yes nostr:npub1h8nk2346qezka5cpm8jjh3yl5j88pf4ly2ptu7s6uu55wcfqy0wq36rpev touched on this briefly in a recent episode. I can’t wait to see what the great minds in the HRF and freedom money sphere have to say in the coming year.
