You can explain much of human behavior by the fact that most people will do almost everything in their power to not think.
Unpopular Opinion: "Bitcoin" jobs are really risky and usually don't last more than a few years.
I find the new trend of single people meeting in run clubs fascinating.
Ostentatious shows of wealth like at night clubs are no longer the signal that they once were because it's easy to fake with debt. People trust the proof of work around physical fitness more reliable an indicator of character now.
Most people think the modern world is the result of WWII.
The more educated people know that WWII is really the result of WWI.

I'm starting to think insurance is a form of debt.
You will never have the conviction to convince anyone by talking "number go up" or "savings vehicle."
The only real conviction comes from a moral high ground. And until you live consistently with the ethos that the fiat monetary system is theft, and that every loan is printing money, you will only be LARPing and not living the truth of what Bitcoin really is.
Prolonging life with money is a modern phenomenon. It's a very strange tradeoff and one that prices life itself. There's something metaphysically unsettling about this.
