It’s hitting me again in this chapter of Bitcoin adoption we find ourselves in why so many continue to be militantly against Bitcoin (even ones you may say they *should* be for it! Like I used to say about progressives). If you believe the state is redeemable and that government, central banks, politicians, etc are capable of handling money, rights and freedoms, then you see no need for Bitcoin. In fact you may ideological or quite literally fight against something like Bitcoin because you fear it means: 1) you’re wrong about your assumptions of government and central banks being the best and honest actors for money 2) you fear advocating for or support of bitcoin will destroy your notions of government and banks and do not want to see this happen And many working against Bitcoin view it and Bitcoiners as a threat to the status quo, and as I’ve said before many go so far as to suggest we *want* governments and central banks to fail. This is not the case at all. We just have eyes and ears, follow incentives, and are highly skeptical (based on historical events 100% of the time) that they are the best actors to be in charge of money and permission-based structures. We say even if governments improve, it’s not worth the risk of asking permission and trusting they won’t constantly steal, change the rules, and prevent us from transacting. We are building parallel structures because the current ones have been failing and the only way they continue is if more and more power is taken from the people and centrally concentrated to the government (and banks). No thanks!

I can’t really hide or pretend that I can define the mission, scope and uniqueness of Bitcoin without invoking anarchism Bitcoin (really Bitcoiners, right?) believing and saying things like opt out, peaceful revolution, rules not rulers, is entirely within and complementary to an anarchical framework and worldview In society today both Bitcoin and anarchism have terrible connotations for normies. This post inspired by Graeber’s wonderful little read:

“Society in every state is a blessing, but Government, even in its best state, is but a necessary evil; in its worst state, an intolerable one.” - Thomas Paine I think we’re way past the “intolerable one” phase for most of the world. Nearly every founding father and contributor wanted a small gov’t, and one by the people for the people. If they saw what we have today…my god. What would they think of their revolution and experiment?

Happy 250th anniversary to Thomas Paine’s “Common Sense.” It argues that the American colonies should break from British rule because monarchy is irrational, inherited power is unjust, and people are fully capable of governing themselves. “The cause of America is in a great measure the cause of all mankind.”

Goodnight nostr 💤 Stay unpredictable

In every developed nation (particularly the U.S. and UK) the middle class has been stolen from to benefit the uber rich and the uber poor (although the poor have even less chance of getting out of their cycle of poverty and are totally dependent on the state for everything now). That’s why there’s such vitriol. The middle class who works hard and does all the right things as you’re taught and told.

Hey how do I get a custom @primal link? #asknostr

The more I use LLMs and the more I see how people engage and interact in social media The more I see how humans are so special, and made in the image of God. We are God’s greatest act. Humanity. Our souls. And how we live and engage with one another — that is the root of our humanity. More and more non-human tools emerge, and it becomes glaringly obvious the soullessness of this technology. Personally I don’t fear it — there is literally no comparison to it or its “intelligence” and humanity. Humans have souls and access to Truth that is incomprehensible to technology like LLMs. The issue is, people need to be reminded of this. They attempt too much to run from their souls. Run from pursuing Truth and Goodness. We are trying so hard to shed our very nature. That is more scary to me than any technological hellscape future you can envision.

Fascinating

As a vegan on a plant based diet, I like this chart. Instead of meat and dairy I just substitute that with the following: Lentils, chickpeas, black beans, tofu, tempeh, edamame. Tons of healthy fast with avo and olive oil. (And yes I take supplements)

I’m of the school of thought we should oppose totalitarian regimes no matter the flavor (right left etc) And at this point, I’ve seen so many failure from right and left in this regard — against life, liberty, privacy, property, freedom, etc That my default is anarchism. The govt cannot and should not speak for or lead us.

The division X and Elon amplifies via its algorithm is deeply deeply worrying. Especially after the ICE event in Minnesota where a woman was killed. X (and our political leaders on there) are strategically making this division all the much worse. Deeply concerned for America, our division, and more violence to come.

Gm👋🏻 I hope you have a great day 🌞 That’s it. That’s the note. Pura Vida 🤙🏻

I feel like Brad Pitt in this scene all the damn time. Sure, I make jokes to cope too. But when we see money printing, wars that send assets through the roof now, bitcoin moon, etc. I’m glad we have Bitcoin. I’m glad some of us are navigating these crises well (hopefully) “But just don’t fuckin dance”

jesus christ money printer gonna go BRRRRRRRRRR
