CBDCs are great.

They'll sell the normies on the product category.

Selling them a better product in the same category afterwards will be easy.

"Hey, you want that, but without transaction fees, arbitrary account freezing, and full privacy?"

That’s one way to look at it!

Trying to stay positive.

That's the spirit!

That's why they all switched to Signal and nostr instead of texts and xitter.

I know the Leopards eating peoples faces party thing was made up for the Republicans but it isn't just them.

There is a very deep seated belief that those bad things happen to other people who must have deserved it in some way. It is pervasive across all of Normydom.

plus a free toaster!

Did someone say free toaster 👀

Haha, reminds me of James' anti+scam video on the free toaster 🤣

Is it easy now to sell normies on things like lightning and ecash? Because we essentially already have a CBDC.

bitcoin maxis are allergic to understanding normies.

to a normie, the product is 99.9% UX. they get ONE failed lightning payment, or they even once hear of a chaumian ecash mint having an oopsie poopsie? they throw it in the trash forever. and they should.

I think you forgot the most important advantage .. Lamborghinis !!
