Visionary “Since production must always precede predation, the free market is anterior to the State. The State has never been created by a “social contract”; it has always been born in conquest and exploitation.” - Murray Rothbard

Enough said. npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey There is no distinction between gangs/mafias and governments. npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey Where do you find local meetups? npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey I think we all owe the “conspiracy theorists” an apology. The more that comes out, the more they are proven right. npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey I’ve noticed people tend to be less career-driven after being orange-pilled. The further down the Bitcoin rabbit hole you go, the more you realize that your job likely serves the fiat masters in one way or another. npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey From the West to the East? From nation-states to individuals? npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey Any pharma company that labels their pharmaceutical product as a “vaccine” is able to tap into the decades-long propaganda campaign of convincing the populace that all vaccines are safe and not to be questioned. They are hoping this label disarms skeptics, as they don’t want to be labeled anti-vaxers npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey Ayn Rand would have been such an amazing toxic bitcoiner npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey I don’t think anyone is a better person with alcohol than without it npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey Either the vaccine works or it doesn’t. If it doesn’t work, there’s obviously no reason to take it (let alone coerce others into doing so) If it does work and you take it, no need to worry about what others do because you’re protected, right? In either case, coercion is not only immoral - it’s also nonsensical. npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey I currently use Fold because with a monthly subscription ($10), I can swap between BTC and $ for no fee. If I used Strike, I would be paying more than $10/month in conversion fees (I believe). That being said, I might make the switch when your line of credit product comes out. npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey A lot easier to orange-pill the 1.6 GPA types than the 4.0 GPA types. The 1.6 GPAs already know that the system is messed up. The 4.0s need to be convinced of that. npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey Where is this architecture in the US? npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey You may have heard that college tuition is becoming more expensive. When priced correctly (in gold), college tuition is flat since 1900. Tuition isn’t going up. Your dollar is going down. https://blossom.primal.net/514f8703c1190b1a8eea97bc6d16f378d4926c0a07f90e915ff1cf8a7f412aa4.jpg npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey You can backtrack on almost any other mistake. You don’t wanna mess this one up. npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey I was a progressive until I realized that the purpose of welfare wasn’t to provide a safety net, but to make people dependent on the State npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey They reversed the food pyramid? So you’re telling me the “conspiracy theorists” were right again? npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey Such a bizarre theory put forth by the Tucker Carlson / Dave Collum types. Why would the State create a technology that they knew would lead to their demise? “To lead us to a CBDC” they say. But they never bother to explain how bitcoin adoption “leads” to a CBDC. Why would I ever exchange my bitcoin for CBDC tokens? It’s not a good theory and they don’t need it to be. They just want us to think they are omnipotent. npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey https://blossom.primal.net/d8fb0540355ec1f9c4d13c572b9ccb115d94f3b680e81a167a20ef339c30f74a.png npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey Puts a dent in the theory that American dominance is dead npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey Do you eat carnivore? npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey I’m careful to never bash Dave Smith because he was the one who actually woke me up (shamefully, i was an indoctrinated college student up until 2020). That being said, why is he not bringing up a) the bond market/debt situation and b) bitcoin in every single episode? Same issue I have with all the Mises Institute guys. If you’ve been reading Rothbard for the last 30-40 years, how could you not be a toxic Bitcoin maximalist by now? npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey 100%. Any political commentary that doesn’t make regular reference to the bond market is ignoring the elephant in the room npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey Expect the Trump administration to continue to telegraph their moves. Theyll overthrow Maduro but only after testing the waters with headlines months beforehand on mainstream media. They’ll cut interest rates, but they’ll warn you months beforehand. They’ll declare a housing emergency, but only after warning you that they would. The element of surprise is no longer a tool at their disposal. Why? Because the bond market is hanging by a thread. They cannot catch the market by surprise or they risk catastrophe. npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey As corrupt as this obviously is, polymarket allows us to discover truth quicker. Let’s use their political corruption against them. npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey The history books will tell our children that COVID would have wiped out humanity without Dr. Fauci and the mRNA vax The case for homeschooling has never been stronger. npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey The sad thing is that most people will believe the textbook story instead of what they actually experienced. Normies trust “the experts” more than their own eyes. npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey Bitcoin will fix the world but will get none of the credit. Your normie friends will argue about which statist politician or celebrity saved us. But you’ll know the truth. npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey Any particular Bible version? Or does it matter? npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey Any advice on how to get started in the Bible? Read chronologically or emphasize certain books first? npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey Can’t control how many we get. But we can make sure we don’t miss the ones we do get. npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey Never miss a sunrise npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey Ownership is not a binary - it's a spectrum. Most people think you either own something or you don't. But as inflation and taxation continue to make themselves felt, the line between ownership and "non-ownership" becomes progressively blurred. Here is what I mean... One the extreme end of non-ownership is something like your neighbor's house. Provided you are not a communist, you don't assume to have any claim to your neighbor's house. On the ownership spectrum, this would be a 0/100. On the other extreme end of the spectrum is complete ownership, the only true allodial title - your soul. You can't give away your soul even if you wanted to. It's not tangible. It cannot be stolen. It cannot be outsourced. Your soul is 100/100 owned by you. These are the extremes. In between, we find financial assets such as real estate, equities, fiat currency, precious metals, and bitcoin. You pay property taxes on real estate (ie unrealized capital gains, subsidized rent to the government). You pay capital gains on equities when you sell them. If the price of gold and silver rise high enough, miners will mine more of it, debasing your holdings. Governments print money, debasing your fiat savings. The punch line is this - apart from your soul, bitcoin is the most "ownable" asset in the world. Assuming you self-custody intelligently, it's practically unseizable. The only reason bitcoin gets a 99/100 instead of a 100/100 on the ownership spectrum is that unlike your soul, you could give away your bitcoin if you wanted to. Other than your soul and your bitcoin, every asset in your life is, at best, partially yours. The takeaway here is to invest in things in proportion to the degree that you can own them. Spend no time worrying about the size of your neighbor's house and not much more worrying about how much US govt tokens you accumulate. Spend as much time as you can purifying your soul. With the time you have leftover, stack some sats. Because those are the only two things that are actually yours. npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey People who think prepping is “overkill” or “kooky” seem to have forgotten that they made it illegal to go to work in 2020. They shut the world down and nobody was held accountable. They can (and probably will) do it again. npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey Next time someone says you need to "diversify" away from bitcoin, ask them how many Argenitine pesos they own. If the say "none," ask them why not? After all, Argentine pesos would likely diversify their portfolio. npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey The improvement was precisely because the government was limited. In other words, we moved closer to anarchism. npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey Freedom is the goal, not money. npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey I’m shocked more Bitcoiners don’t live off-grid npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey I run it on a system76 meerkat running StartOS. I honestly don’t think it’s that hard - I just haven’t put much effort into it. My point is just that if it’s the slightest challenge for me, 99% of normies are never giving it a shot npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey Even if my issue is a unique one, this isn’t good enough. Mass adoption only happens when the edge cases are accounted for. npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey My Alby node keeps going down and I have to switch my nostr wallet to a custodial wallet over and over. Realistically, I could spend the time to figure out what’s wrong (and will) but most people are far too lazy and will give up at the first sight of trouble. npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey As an anarchist, as you long as you respect private property rights, I cannot object npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey As a bitcoin nerd, I will put in the time and effort to manage an Alby Hub Lightning node. But unless it gets more user-friendly, few others are going to to through this effort. npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey If you do so on property that you actually own, it’s not government npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey Normies like the cage they’re kept in npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey They have to result to 2 because 1 is a pipe dream for them npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey Well said. I know he has also mentioned that he began to understand quantum biology far before he stopped his busy surgery schedule (which was invariably long hours under artificial blue light). In other words, he has preached for longer than he's practiced. npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey Fair enough. If you have some time, you should look into Dr. Kruse. His series with Robert Breedlove is dense, but well done. npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey Helpful info - thanks Guy. Curious about your thoughts on Dr. Jack Kruse. On one hand, his work on circadian biology makes a lot of sense. On the other hand, he’s pretty overweight so I’m not sure how much I trust his health advice. Where do you stand on this? npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey Breedlove’s Saylor series will rewire your brain npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey This is what they took from us npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey So the only way to grow the economy is for them to steal from us? Yeah okay lol npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey https://www.nbcnews.com/health/health-news/fda-covid-vaccines-children-deaths-rcna246437 npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey Planning on a backyard wedding. It’ll be a special day no matter what we spend - why blow our life savings on a 5 hour event? npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey I finally proposed to my longtime girlfriend yesterday. Without bitcoin, I couldn’t have afforded for the ring. Without bitcoin, I couldn’t have afforded a wedding. Yes, Satoshi gave us real money again. But more importantly, he returned to us what should have always been ours - the ability to plan for the future. Even just a brief glance at the catastrophic drop in marriage and fertility rates under the fiat standard reveals the appalling. Yes, they are debasing your money. Yes, they are making food more expensive. But they are also stealing the most precious asset of all - marriage and family. As Bitcoiners, we must resist this at all costs. Consider this my small act of defiance. https://blossom.primal.net/a486c63633da40cc0a65fd50972941c78ca619f7aae1e9d1da6c869bd0cb34df.jpg npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey America is an idea, not a location my friend. Canadian Bitcoiners are more American than US residents begging for socialism. npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey So is it fair to say that the damage from nn-EMF is less about direct damage to DNA and more about artificially lowering your guard down against toxins? In other words, nn-EMF is the destabilizer that leaves us vulnerable, not necessarily what delivers the final blow? npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey How does non-ionizing radiation lead to chronic disease? The mainstream dogma is that only ionizing radiation causes DNA damage. What would you say in response to this? Thanks for your work. npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey The stoics teach us that not only should we avoid worrying about outcomes, but they’re not even our business in the first place. We control our effort and attitude - that’s it. Anything else is a distraction. npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey They don’t understand that S&P “growth” is just money printing npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey The no-coiners don’t even push back on those numbers. They just… won’t act accordingly? npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey 100%. Libertarianism asserts when an individual is ethically permitted to employ force against another. Other than rejecting the initiation of force, libertarianism makes no claim on how individuals should live their life. For that, you need another framework npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey Now the big boys are here…. npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey The deeper into bitcoin I get, the more frustrated I get with mainstream voices. So often, the answers are right in front of them, but they can’t see it. npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey Even the tyranny of the USSR was limited by the technology of their time. But with smart phones and widespread internet such restraints have been removed for governments seeking to expand today. npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey One of the biggest crimes of fiat was to separate individuals from their local community. It is literally cheaper for me to buy my food from the opposite hemisphere than the farm down the road. npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey And they’re saying bitcoin already topped out lol okay npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey If the last six months in bitcoin teach you anything, let it be the futility of price predictions npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey https://blossom.primal.net/8d5384f1fda15dbd88e17b4d819255f03e5b70f965ed2d93f95a7cde2c65ece2.jpg npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey Not only does the State fail to express the will of the people, but it serves no function other than to OVERRIDE the will of the people #nevent1q…9p89 npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey I take comfort knowing they will be punished in the afterlife npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey Can I ask your opinion on Dr. Jack Kruse? He seems quite respected in the bitcoin space, but appears 40 lb overweight to me npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey I’ve been listening to to Clint Russell for a while. He’s great, but I don’t get the sense he’s totally orange-pilled yet. Some time on nostr could fix that… npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey It’s seeming more and more likely to me that the elites have no idea that bitcoin is a trojan horse. Even the architects of the fiat system themselves are blinded by their own evil creation. npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey All of which is derived from self-ownership. Christ and Mises both agreed. npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey Both arrive at individualism and self-ownership. Christianity does so from the New Testament. Libertarianism does so from axiom of human action. Conclusions that are path-independent are more likely to be correct. npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey Very interesting that the Christians and the libertarians arrive at very similar conclusions… npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey Most are completely unprepared for America’s shift back to manufacturing. Don’t tell your kids to take on $250,000 of debt for a finance degree. Tell them to avoid debt, learn a trade, and eventually start their own business. npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey At this point, there is quite literally no point in holding fiat.

We all know that lying is bad but we’ve all done it. We all know that integrity is the way but we don’t always act that way. I’m certainly not the Christianity expert, but my understanding of it is that what makes Christianity unique is that you can always repent and start fresh, as long as you do so genuinely and work to improve yourself. npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey As a libertarian, I respect Christianity largely for its alignment with individualism. But how do we ensure that the Church never becomes the corrupt institution that the State is? npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey https://youtu.be/IzBLFJA50g8l Get out of the city. npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey If you don’t trust the State with your money, why would you trust it with you children? #nevent1q…36j7 npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey There will always be wealth inequality. The question is just whether that wealth inequality is earned on the basis of providing value to others (the free market, which Bitcoin aligns with) or on the basis of printing money (the fiat economy, which the dollar aligns with). The Bitcoin economy rewards those who serve humanity. The fiat economy rewards those who manipulate money at the expense of humanity. npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey Shockingly few people understand that all of these programs are funded with stolen money. npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey Politics is a zero-sum game.

The “rising prices” that your Facebook friends complain about are an illusion. It just depends on what unit you’re denominating in. We get to choose our reality. Want your life to be harder and harder to afford? Hold fiat. Want your life to be easier and easier to afford? Hold BTC. npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey HODL got the trend started, but I’m gonna go out on a limb and say Jimmy makes the best vlogs on nostr npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey Biggest lesson of the last half decade for me is that the “experts” don’t know shit, so you might as well think for yourself and draw your own conclusions. Will I be wrong sometimes? Of course. But I’d rather be wrong because I trusted my own intuition that someone else’s. npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey The age-old question is whether we use technology to feed our own illusion that we are separate from Nature or whether we utilize technology to reconnect with Nature. Societies with the former mentality fail. Societies with the latter mentality will prosper. #nevent1q…l0dh npub1f30lgt8sqlvreg4m6a78wzz3zvz5qlrla9hfhqp5527taf87fdpqcmaexf grey I’ve heard start9 > Umbrel
