What is happening to the world? It’s really starting to freak me out. I’ve lost so many friends to ugly ideology in the past few years with the red pill stuff, the tyrant worship, etc, it’s turning me paranoid. I don’t know who I can trust any more.

I don’t think I was that naive, I think they changed. Some of them casual friends, some of them very close friends, ...it hurts every time. And the worst part about having to part ways with so many is that it hurts your ability to be close with others.

I genuinely think I don't have non-traveling or nocoiner friends anymore. Either they are converted or were bitcoiners when I met them. Lost contact with almost all static nocoiner friends.

I recognized that if you reach a certain level of freedom (bitcoin, traveling, remote working), that you can become some much more than you thought you were destined for. And that includes the circle of people that 1) are put around you, and that 2) you put around yourself.

This video from "my" travel community resonated very well:

Just got into it w a friend of almost 30 years. I didn't want to, he wanted to and kept at it. I had no idea he'd converted. I tried a few times to just get gim to drop it, he's not going to change my mind and I'm not going to change his. He wouldn't. I've put him on a non engagement time out while I decide if he's still worth having in my life. He was insulting and disrespectful. I have another good friend we determined long ago and agreed that politics was off limits and we get on just fine.
