Imagine being a conspiracy theorist in 2024 and NOT being a Bitcoiner..
Like WTF are you doing dude? What’s the point? You connect all these dots and then miss all the upside?!
Discussion
For influencers, they profit by complaining. They don’t want a real solution because then their midwit audience revenue would dry up. Tons of big names are susceptible to it. Brand, Rogan, Greenwald, Tucker, JBP, Weinsteins, on and on. Instead it’s all about “rebuilding institutions”.
For general public, they also don’t want a real solution because of extreme nihilism. Hope is vulnerability. Easier to be paranoid schizophrenic.
Because they believe Bitcoin to be a conspiracy.
Some conspiracy theorist dig into things they question, to find the truth. Others, simply like playing the victim, while pretending to be smarter than the average person.
Those are my favourite ones - Bitcoin was created by the NSA because they were involved in SHA256!!!
It completely misunderstands what SHA256 is, and how it’s used in Bitcoin.
I have friends like that. The second you ask them about the difficulty adjustment, nodes, or anything else, they have no idea what you're talking about.
They'd rather complain than look for solutions.
It's the victim mentality, but instead of racism or the patriarchy, it's the elites who hold them down
Like Whitney Webb's audience
I like listening to people like Whitney Webb, a bit. I don't mind nibbling on a black pill once in a while, to get a window into that state of mind, but I don't want to swallow a whole bottle, like she and her audience have.
There has always been a group of people at the top getting away with murder... Literally. All we can do is try and insulate and then innovate ourselves from their fuckery and not get killed in the process.
Identifying problems without providing solutions is hand waving nonsense
Send this to all your ppl that talk like they bitcoiners but dont own any. I have a couple of those
They didn't connect any dots, they see the obvious.
That's enough for them.
Doing something is an admission that there's a solution.
If there's a solution it requires you to solve for how much effort you should put behind said solution.
No trigger finger, only Twitter fingers 🤌.
I said this to a friend the other day. He was complaining about "everything" and I was like "... So you bought #bitcoin right?" That just triggered him even more.
Some people. Am I right?
