You should look into Islam where all these problems can be rectified.

I was hacked even though I had 2fa and control of my phone and email. When the hacker was counter attacked by my followers they posted the N word repeatedly which caused Twitter to automatically shut down the account. I have files support tickets. Crickets. Twitter is fiat. nostr:note1jzx82dm8szqs4c6x6sjxynyuf093ajuz2lzn4u53wj2njelyyv4q9lh7ls

The head of Ethiopia’s central bank has a copy of Broken Money in his office.

He also has The Deficit Myth, but I can overlook that. 😅

I started with Trezor Safe 3, then an Trezor Safe 5, then a ColdCard Q. The Trezor Safe 5 is still my favourite for ease of use and just enough features. The ColdCard is extra secure, but take a big learning curve, and maybe overkill.

🚨 JUST IN: Argentina 🇦🇷 gets into to the shitcoin game.

ANYTHING BUT #BITCOIN!

Becoming pretty clear that the Milei memecoin is not a hack…

Brutal

Personally, I use a tool called Yuka, there is a Foss software similar to it but I don't utilize it that software since it's not as good as Yuka.

Now, of course it's not perfect but I use it as quick tool to make more informed decisions when I don't feel like going a schizo 50 webpage search to see if this particular brand of food™ will give me testicular cancer, or some hormonal issue, etc.

I appreciate medical doctors and other healthcare providers, but I hate the fact that many are incentivized (ie, subsidized) by the Federal Government to give advice that is often adverse to human health.

I appreciate farmers, but I hate the fact that many are incentivized (ie, subsidized) by the Federal Government to grow copious amounts of corn and soybeans, which are used to generally undermine human health.

I appreciate soldiers and military veterans, but I hate the fact that many are incentivized (ie, subsidized) by the Federal Government to use lethal force to support unethical missions and kill innocent people... often leading to PTSD and other long-term psychological issues.

I appreciate educators, but I hate the fact that many are incentivized (ie, subsidized) by the Federal Government to reward strict compliance, memorization, and group-think rather than autonomous thought, creativity, and integrity.

I appreciate commerce and the necessity of a widely accepted medium of exchange, but I hate the fact that many are incentivized (ie, subsidized) by the Federal Government to steal purchasing power from (forced) users of the fiat currencies--thereby worsening income inequality--rather than allowing to people to survive and thrive through their own proof of work.

I could go on.

Do you see that everything the Federal Government touches, it corrupts over time?

Anyway, GM. ☕

LFG! Ditch the gold Ray!

Is anyone really surprised that a system requiring theft (inflation) at its base layer….has theft throughout it?

#bitcoin

got an email from our sons teacher saying he “misgendered” another kid. wtf!? he’s 8 years old. Apparently she also was telling the class that if your parents voted conservative that they hate gay people are are bad. Ok i’m fucking pissed now.

In fiction, underdogs often win. And underdogs are often tend to be shown as virtuous whereas in reality they have often turn pretty brutal after long oppression.

In reality, those with power usually win. Power begets more power for a long time until things structurally change, usually after centuries.

Fiction does tend to emphasize the exceptions. We don’t focus on the norms; we focus on the outliers.

So reality is filled with norms, and fiction is filled with outliers.

**Yesterday, the heroes of Bitcoiners were still Ludwig von Mises and Murray Rothbard. Today, it’s Trump with his tariffs. And anyone who criticizes this is suddenly labeled a leftist. What a Clown Show!** 🤡🤡🤡

The Austrian School of Economics, rooted in the principles of free markets, individualism, and limited government intervention, strongly opposes tariffs as a form of protectionism. Here’s a concise breakdown of their stance:

1. **Market Distortion**: Tariffs artificially manipulate prices and disrupt the natural price signals that guide efficient resource allocation in a free market. Austrians argue this leads to misallocation of capital and labor, favoring politically connected industries over genuine economic productivity.

2. **Consumer Harm**: By raising prices on imported goods, tariffs reduce purchasing power and limit consumer choice. Austrian thinkers like Ludwig von Mises emphasized that such policies prioritize domestic producers’ interests over the welfare of consumers.

3. **Comparative Advantage**: Following David Ricardo’s theory (adopted by Austrians), tariffs undermine the benefits of international trade by discouraging specialization. They stifle the gains from trade that arise when countries focus on producing goods where they hold efficiency advantages.

4. **Government Overreach**: Tariffs represent coercive state intervention, violating the Austrian emphasis on voluntary exchange. Murray Rothbard and others viewed them as tools of crony capitalism, enabling bureaucrats to pick winners and losers rather than allowing market competition to prevail.

5. **Retaliation and Trade Wars**: Austrians warn that tariffs often provoke retaliatory measures, escalating into trade conflicts that shrink global economic output. This aligns with their broader skepticism of centralized economic planning, whether domestic or international.

Not owning dollars makes me a fool?

You just got debased
