Yeah it's amazing how the most vital (albeit abstract) concept to civilised life in this era is also the least understood. That is obviously not a coincidence. How's that quote go.. "Your rulers won't teach you how to overthrow them" or something.
Same 🤙
And yea I would think the same thing about critical thinking and the common Bitcoiner. Like if you are a Bitcoiner than you would think it means we already have a set of principles that we agree on at our core, so it changes how you think about them. I think I saw nostr:npub1rtlqca8r6auyaw5n5h3l5422dm4sry5dzfee4696fqe8s6qgudks7djtfs have a funny post about that recently. And you knew that it takes a critical thinker to get yourself to even ask, “what IS money?” But the lack of critical thinking part of the newer wave of bitcoiners is just the speed of adoption ramping up i think. And its causing some people to find Bitcoin BEFORE they are ready for it. It used to be that you had to find bitcoin for yourself and look deeper and study it for any real impact to take place. But nowadays, its more in the face of the normie. And whatever mindset you are in when you look/review something HEAVILY influences what you actually “see” and take from it, unfortunately

I guess this is kinda what i’m talking about. Like now i’m concerned that we will be forcefully pushed towards hyperbitcoinization before the average person (or anywhere close to a sizable amount at least) is ready. Instead of the slow natural progression that could still, albeit less and less likely 😅😓, happen over a natural timeline 🤷♂️
And ofcourse this will also result in "Custodia Dystopia".
