You misunderstand. I AM over them because I don't care if I the assumptions and biases that you suggest, I hold, are true or not🤷🏻‍♂️.

That's ok. I'm already over it.

"And a thing is not seen because it is visible, but; conversely, visible because it is seen; nor is a thing led because; it is in the state of being led, or carried because it is in the; state of being carried, but the converse of this. And now I think, Euthyphro, that my meaning will be intelligible; and my; meaning is, that any state of action or passion implies previous; action or passion. It does not become because it is becoming, but it is in a state of becoming because it becomes; neither; does it suffer because it is in a state of suffering, but it is in a; state of suffering because it suffers. Do you not agree?"

Some pleb named "The Commoner" has just zapped 420 sats to a multi millionaire for his above note😂. The mind boggles, and I thought Bitcoiners were a clever sort😳. You'll note, I have no LN address on my profile as I dont need the sats and I'm not a preachy podcast kind of shill either🤷🏻‍♂️.

i'm not sure there is any contest. basically no politician with any real power has ever proposed doing anything about it.

i think its more of a culture war topics both the left and right folks in power enjoy throwing out there to divide the masses and create shouting matches. while they continue to loot and pillage a dying late stage empire

You don't have to feel guilty about something you didn't do.

I'm not sure that is what most rational people are asking you (or anyone else) to do. Perhaps a fringe minority that gets a lot of airtime. Just like a lot of fringe right wingers get a lot of airtime.

I think the more rational take is to understand the systemic inequities that have been present in our society for centuries. You don't have to necessarily do anything about it or feel any way about it. Its just another fact of life that you can add into your mental models.

A kid growing up in the slums of mumbai simply has less opportunity than even a poor child growing up in the slums of london. That kid in london has had the advantage of a wealthy society that was partially built by looting that child in mumbais grandparents.

Again, that is just the harsh reality of the world today, nothing you and I have to do about it if we don't want to.

What about bitcoin?

I have an idea for the Democrats to bring them back into “play.” After years of being left out in the cold, including suffering one of the Greatest Losses in History, the 2024 Presidential Election, the Democrats should nominate Low IQ Candidate, Jasmine Crockett, for President, and AOC+3 should be, respectively, Vice President, and three High Level Members of the Cabinet – Added together with our future Communist Mayor of New York City, Zohran Mamdani, and our Country is really SCREWED!

EVERYONE, KEEP OIL PRICES DOWN. I’M WATCHING! YOU’RE PLAYING RIGHT INTO THE HANDS OF THE ENEMY. DON’T DO IT!

there are plenty of people who think we should not spend bitcoin

the cool part is we can spend it without their permission

Less vaccines? 🤷‍♂️

I am new to BTC but am trying to learn as much as possible as quickly as possible. At first I was simply buying BTC on an exchange and then transferring it to cold storage.

But #[0]​ inspired me to try and start spending and replacing it.

Well today I had my first merchant transaction. I ordered food from a place I had no idea accepted BTC!

The process was a little scary at first. There was a 5 second pause btw clicking "pay" and the lightning payment going through, but it went through and a few min later I had my food!

Just incredible. Still need more development on the lightning payments side in terms of user interfaces. Just my 2 cents.

Also, curious what everyone's thoughts are on cold storage. Not sure which device is safest. Then someone told me not to use a device at all and put seed phrases on steel plates?!?!? Or to do a multisig?!?!?

What's everyone's thoughts? I want to spend now, but I also want the absolute most secure way to hodl and save for the long term.

Strange BTC adoption isn’t higher there
