The most common way to do this is to claim that we all just collectively decided - through an act of imagination or belief - to imbue it with value. It’s a bit like Peter Pan’s view of flying: money will fly as long as we all keep believing * Path 2: See it as an imposter or fake commodity: I’ve given talks on global finance for over a decade, and I’ve lost count of the times when someone in the audience rants about how the real problem with finance is that money is ‘backed by nothing’, and that there’s no gold in the central bank’s vault, and that the system is therefore a giant Ponzi scheme made up of farcical units that are pretending to be a commodity, with some deceitful power that tries to force you to use them, or to deceive you into believing they are valuable”

I’m a little confused why the elite and virtuous alpha male remanent is going to prevail in the coming times of strife, as opposed to say, blue haired bisexual burner chicks who actually know how to live in a forest for 6 months?? Honestly, I don’t think gym time, roíds, and torturing Evola are going to leave someone any more capable of feeding themselves in the wild than I am 🤷
