Is this implying there's a good time to trade your bitcoin for fiat?

Onboarding everyone to

one Nostr application and

one mega-relay and

one follow list and

one company and...

is soon going to be discovered to be a cardinal mistake.

It has repeatedly been shown to be our Achilles heel, as something interrupts the Primal service and masses of users head for the exit.

That is just Twitter, with extra steps, but in purple.

Nostr is not meant to be centralized.

Nostr is not meant to have a single point of failure.

Nostr is not meant to have a CEO.

Nostr is not meant to have a God List.

That. Is. The. Whole. Point.

Let a thousand Nostrs bloom. 🌸

GLOBAL VOTING THEATER: EVERY COUNTRY’S ELECTION IS A FIAT CIRCUS

THE UNIVERSAL PLAYBOOK (HOW THEY RIG IT EVERYWHERE)

✅ 1. The Illusion of Choice

USA: "Red Team vs. Blue Team" (Same Wall Street donors)

UK: "Tories vs. Labour" (Same Bank of England policies)

Russia: "Putin vs. ‘Opposition’" (LOL)

Bonus: France, Germany, Canada – All controlled opposition, same central bank masters.

✅ 2. The Voting Machine Scam

No Paper Trails? → Results = Software Glitches (Always favoring the establishment).

"Random" Audit Failures → Dominion (US), Smartmatic (LatAm), Diebold (EU) – All shady.

Who Owns These Companies? BlackRock, Vanguard, & other fiat vampires.

✅ 3. The Media Distraction

"Russia Meddled!" (But ignore Domestic Fraud).

"Democracy at Risk!" (Says the party that locks up opposition candidates).

Real Goal? Keep peasants fighting over puppets, not questioning the central banking cartel.

WHY BITCOINERS SEE THROUGH THE BULLSHIT

⚡ 1. We Understand Obfuscation

Fiat elections = Closed-source code, no hash verification.

Bitcoin elections (if they existed) = Open-source, auditable, immutable.

⚡ 2. We Know "Trusted Third Parties" Are the Enemy

Voting machines = Just another middleman scam (like fractional reserve banks).

Solution? Decentralized governance (DAOs, on-chain voting?).

⚡ 3. We Laugh at the Spectacle

"Your vote matters!" (Meanwhile, CBDCs & lockdowns happen no matter who ‘wins’).

"Count every ballot!" (But don’t audit the machines).

HOW TO RESPOND (WITHOUT LOSING YOUR MIND)

🎯 Meme It Up:

"Voting is like fiat—only works if you pretend it’s real."

"Election fraud? Bro, the whole economy is fraud."

🎯 Ask the Uncomfortable Question:

"If voting worked, why do the same bankers win every time?"

🎯 Opt Out & Stack Sats:

No leader will save you – Bitcoin is the only exit.

FINAL SHOT

"THEY SEE ‘DEMOCRACY’.

YOU SEE A GLOBAL FIAT CULT WHERE THE HIGH PRIESTS WEAR SUITS & PRINT MONEY.

THIS ISN’T POLITICS—

IT’S A RELIGION WHERE THE ELECTIONS ARE CONFESSIONALS FOR THE POWERLESS."

(Stay cynical. Stay stacking.) ⚔️🗳️

P.P.S. Fun fact: The word ‘democracy’ comes from Greek ‘demos’ (people) + ‘kratos’ (power). In 2024, it means ‘kratos’ without the ‘demos.’

P.P.P.S. When they say "Go vote!" → "I did. I bought Bitcoin." ₿🚀

Tldr?

Are they though? I’ve never really met a Christian nationalist, have you? Not saying they don’t exist but I just feel like they’re kind of rare.

Is you disect the most common financial and scientific theories you will find they are based on unfounded assumptions and their predictions are based on models that do not represent reality.

Truth in this environment is hard to come by. Bitcoin represent a departure from this paradigm as it function as a verifiable truth machine and a living proof work. Its an anchor of truth in a sea of lies.

Yeah. This is one of the things that pisses me off the most.

GM

This is true:

The human heart is deceitful above all things and desperately wicked. The sheer level of depravity in each of us would shock whoever had a full glimpse of it. No one is righteous, no not one.

This is also true:

We should reject cynicism and resist always assuming the worst intentions in other people. Give others the benefit of the doubt until you have good reason to do otherwise. Don't take yourself too seriously. Don't treat others too flippantly.

It is hard to hold these two sides of reality in tandem but wisdom and healthy relationships require it.

If you consider yourself an actual cypherpunk, or you truly want to see freedom on the internet, why haven't you asked me for Pubky invite code yet?

Thanks for these great suggestions. I get through a lot more listening than reading. Simply because my job entails so much sitting and studying. Are there any other good listens on this you would suggest? I listen to books and podcasts. If it is a podcast, I prefer longform that allows a more nuanced approach.

Your podcast actually inspired this thought. I'd never heard of the 2001 translation until that podcast either, but I am really fascinated by it.

Thanks for this. I skimmed through the 9.5 Thesies and will have to think about them more.

PS I dont like the idea of an AI interpretation, but it seems unavoidable at this point.

I know how hard the advertising game is for podcasts. I'm about a third of the way through so far. Really enjoying the commentary on translations 🙏

This has nothing to do with the main content, but I find it sad to start a Christian podcast with an ad for a divorce attorney

GM! getting my morning purrs 💕

God provided the means to pay tax in Matthew 17:24-27. I don’t believe this would have happened if doing so constituted idolatry.

the alcohol reference is just to distract me from your original point, which is obviously flawed.

neexxxtt....

This is the only liberty I really need.

For the law of the Spirit of life has set you free in Christ Jesus from the law of sin and death.

Romans 8:2

I don't know about you, but I enjoy being right. I've been dismissed so many times, I've lost count. But here we are.
