Seasonal telltale signs this time of year in northern AB. Which farmers are spraying Roundup on wheat crops destined for our food supply to desiccate it before the wet weather comes. Some fields are green. Some are almost dried and have these sprayer tracks through them. Something to think about when consuming anything with wheat flour in it. Damn shame. Incentives determine outcomes as usual. #foodsafety #carnivore #grownostr

I had an epiphany today. Maybe it’s accurate, maybe it’s not. “The likelihood of someone understanding and adopting Bitcoin as a store of value or medium of exchange is directly proportional to their overall comfort with seeking out information that challenges deeply held assumptions.” I used to think it was just a fundamental lack of curiosity or intellectual laziness that kept many from going down the Bitcoin rabbit hole. Now I’m starting to think that for many otherwise intelligent people, it is actually the fear of the truth, that Humanity has been enslaved by the fiat monetary system, that keeps individuals away. Or perhaps the fear of embarrassment, that even with their degree in finance, they didn’t see it. This thesis would also account for the many who, rather than simply ignoring Bitcoin, actually lash out against it. When someone feels intellectually “backed into a corner”, it comes down to pure fight-or-flight. All of this to say, that maybe we need to focus more on explaining the effects of monetary debasement, rather than starting conversations with the ₿ word in the first few sentences. It might keep our audience from shutting down out of discomfort or out of recollection of the incessant FUD they’ve been exposed to. What do you think? #asknostr #bitcoin #grownostr
