Last day of work for me and then off for Christmas 🙏🏻
Brits teaching Americans how to use our language correctly. It never gets old.
I think in some ways it all boils down to fiat.
Debasing the money steals the gains made by technology, robbing people of their time and then fund feminist/socialist propaganda to make sure the remaining time is used to be a worker drone for the fiat machine instead of raising families and building communities.
If we remained on something like a gold standard most men could provide for a large family on a part time job and most women wouldn't have been trained to behave like men .
Yes, I'd say that there has always been a subset of women with this temperament but only with modern technology and ideology have they been able to engage in these occupations. Women are more prone to outside influence than men because historically, being ostracized by the group would mean death for themselves and their children in small communities.
I think there's a bunch of things that can be done:
- Call out feminist propaganda in media
- Be a good example as a man or woman respectively
- Teach them to lean into their femininity in a healthy way
- Tell them that very few people find the most meaning and fulfillment from their career
There's a bunch more but these are simple ones that pop into my mind
it's because fiat is going down in value AND Bitcoin is going up in value.
I've asked Santa for one but I'm not sure there was any stock left 😅
I have a guy trying to shill me pi coin to me over the last year. Like, if you're gonna push a shitcoin at least pick one of the more advanced scams.
A lot of people just listen to the FUD or assume a decentralised network is a bad thing and never bother to look any further, even software developers.
You also get those people that because they are specialised in one area, they consider themselves an expert on everything. Someone might be great at writing code but that doesn't mean they know anything about money or economics.
Bitcoin is an ego check and I've worked with some seriously big egos in software development 😆
These are valid concerns and although we can't always articulate it perfectly I think people can feel nostr is going to be the new internet. Added my thoughts to the read 👍
I'm pretty much a noob too and have never been much of a public social media user either but this is the way I see it.
As Bitcoin becomes more widely used, so will #nostr because it is built on top of it.
A peaceful revolution is happening where people are moving to a low time preference world view and that is exactly what nostr facilitates as the new internet.
The walled gardens with guaranteed fiat income are attractive to the high time preference individual, but a lot like those who sold Bitcoin for fiat to buy cars and boats 10 years ago, they are still looking at the world through a fiat lense.
The small inconsistent zaps you nostr content creators receive today will be worth so much more than the fiat paywall bucks.
Slowly the edgier content creators like nostr:npub14am887cf6kvwkce89nt7dsw3v9qrrn0uppxyvr6a2jd7xdwuwccqwnudp2 will move over when the old internet becomes too suffocating to function any longer and eventually they will all move when they realise the that #bitcoin is the new money.
That's my 2 sats.
Upping my default #zap to 210 sats because it won't be long until 21 sats are worth less than one Great British Decline Penny
This is it. The moment they start using it as a reserve asset we have already won the long game. Just keep reminding people to self custody and buy from P2P no-KYC exchanges. And of course use and advocate for lightning wherever you can.
I think this step was inevitable. Once it became the obvious store of value, they had to adopt it but to try frame it as an asset to be held by governments and institutions. That will delay the normies realising it is also a method of exchange.
