aligning your actions with reality, with truth, is the most radical thing anyone can do.
to do so implies surrender to an order external to your own subjective experience.
call that external order anything you want: God, the universe, logos, a flying spaghetti monster
makes no difference.
you either acknowledge that order doesn’t come from within, or you think it does.
the former logically valid
the latter logically invalid
there is your stupid/genius line
for as advanced as we like to think modern man is, at least the pagans knew they weren’t gods.
the point is over your head.
i’ll put it this way for you.
why is the world not on a bitcoin standard?
because clumsy people say clumsy things and these dull spoons don’t cut the cheese when it comes to teaching.
attributing special meaning to common words already established is just dumb.
at the moment clarity is needed, we think jumping around and muddying the water is a good strat.
just read your note attempting to define meaning. your assertions invalidate your conclusion. its logic 101.
time ticks and bitcoin grows up
good news is even if btc is 50mil a coin, there still is no better place to put your economic energy
the “get rich” part of early adoption isn’t the main argument for getting into bitcoin.
keeping the fruit of you labor
that is always the case, and why price is the least important part of the equation
my 2 sats
last year was that for me.
good news: aging isn’t everything the boomers fear.
today, i have better mobility, strength, endurance, financial sovereignty, emotional stability, and a baller family.
wouldn’t go back for anything
and we wonder why we are only at 90k 🤦♂️

money is brought into existence when two people exchange value with an objective intermediary.
the relational dynamic of humans makes it necessarily ethical and political.
Aristotle said this thousands of years ago, but people forget the basics and say stupid shit that only makes sense in their head.
We can stay in reality. 👊
If I were to send you a monthly email newsletter, what kinds of things would you want to read about?
every newsletter i’ve ever signed up for, i thought i would want to to read it but i never do 🤷♂️
then i go through a process where i dont want to unsubscribe cause it would be admitting i was stupid, delete it a few times without reading until im tired of what i now think of as spam, and then i give in and just accept that i was stupid and unsubscribe
but im sure there are people that appreciate newsletters
uncomfortable fact, everyone already is free
it’s impossible to “not be free” if ur a human being
no one makes anyone do anything
it’s your choice
did they “coerce you” it’s just a choice to go along with it.
martyrs are proof no one can make anyone do anything
good, buzzbot seems fiat to me
someone has to deliver truth, and you do a superb job.
I am working to get to the front line to join everyone with my upcoming book.
but you will always be able to encapsulate your economic energy in btc.
i like emphasizing the opportunity we have before us, but “moving your stack” makes it seem like if u can’t move ur stack, stacking isn’t worth it.
even at 50 mil a coin, there is no better thing to do with ur energy than put it in btc
We are the network.
knee pads are not required when u have courage and dignity
You still haven’t read “The Holocaust Narrative” by E Michael Jones.
The current administration also does the *exact same thing* as the nazi’s by breathing air. Something definately worth your time looking into
When do you need to use it?
And for what degree?
On general principles, diverting funds from the apex predator into the one of the most bloated bovines out there probably doesn’t make much sense.
For my children, just giving them the btc to start a business or kick start their life would be invaluable compared to whatever bs they get exposed to at most colleges.
college is really becoming a niche use case for specific technical degrees imo
“As hands and feet cannot exist apart from a human being, so neither is a human being self-sufficient for living apart from a political community.”
Aquinas, Commentsry on Aristotle’s Politics, I, 22
Libertarians and anarcists have a coherent account of reality up until this point.
To go beyond, is to depart reality and enter fiat fantasy land.
