Answering with my tinfoil cowboy hat, I'd say we've been lied to about how energy truly works for the last 100ish years. We live in a world of extremely inefficient abundance that doesn't have to be this way.
I believe there's growing evidence that 'free energy' or 'vacuum energy' is possible and has been suppressed.
If people's reaction to that is, "That's not possible with our understanding of science" to me, that sounds like no-coiners saying "Bitcoin can possibly work because of our understanding of the financial system."
Bitcoiners see the conspiracy in our money. Now adjust your gaze and see the conspiracy in our energy.
