My Aussie frens, I keep telling you Australia is going downhill -- but it's not going alone. Spain has one of the most unhinged bunch of lunatics in power of all the unhinged lunatic-lead governments in the West. Most worrisome of all is the fact that although we all know the puppeteers behind it do it for money and power, a good portion of these people are just true believers. Spain is a poster child of the totalitarian globalist movement that wants to enslave us all. It has been for decades, make no mistake. The current government is just more openly crazy. Few places if any went through the sort of absolutely deranged, draconian, China-style lockdowns and "safety measures" as Spain did during covid. Few places too have a population more docile, brainwashed and terminally sick of socialism as Spain does. Now they announce "climate emergency paid leave"... lockdowns. Spaniards will just eat this new totalitarian measure with a side of salad and a glass of water, the same way they eat the truckloads of shit that keep being served to them for food.

That's because it tackles the ONE use case for "electronic cash" -- precisely being "cash", that is, an anonymous medium of exchange. Cash doesn't need to be a store of value or an inflation hedge, just convenient to exchange and untraceable. View quoted note →

Debt bondage was the slavery OG and the most common form historically speaking. Also, taxation is a form of debt, thus slavery. View quoted note →

I like this "It's the 80's all over again" vibe that the MAGA media seem to be intent on pumping. Some visionaries were already demanding it more than 10 years ago.

There are many criticisms of BTC that hold as much water as a fork -- because they're basically coping rationalizations people come up with to justify their own inaction. One of the most ridiculous among them all is the one that says that buying BTC is done for short term speculative reasons. If Bitcoin teaches one single lesson to people who buy it, that's precisely long term thinking and an aversion or at least indifference towards short term speculation. It's a lesson taught regardless of whether the pupil likes it or not, or whether he believes it or not. It will systematically happen and whoever chooses to ignore it will systematically get rekt.

Why the fuck?

Fuck yeah. Please, please make it happen.

Unfortunately, it does matter, given the inordinate influence the State has over our normal daily life. It shouldn't, but it does. View quoted note →
