Why not? Is there an error message?

No error message

Today has been a very instructive day for me. Thanks to @undisciplined I have had access to economic information that has opened my eyes even more about how the government monopoly on the creation and management of money harms society, how money is imposed, even with death threats, and a phrase has left its mark on me:

"When money stops working, everything becomes political and a farce."

Nothing better said. The knowledge I have acquired today thanks to these magnificent suggestions has provided tools and arguments to help others learn about and adopt Bitcoin not only as a means of payment, but rather as a means of freeing themselves from the slavery to which we are subjected.

reply

I’m glad you liked that line so much. It’s a nice way to convey the important philosophical point that society can either be organized voluntarily (functional money) or coercively (politics). There is no third way, and we know which of the two is preferable.

reply

Both articles have been very helpful to me. Thank you.

I have shared them with interested friends and will use them for my purpose of educating about Bitcoin and the need for its adoption.

Had an awesome day today! Cleaned the place, checked out a few places to live, had some chicken and waffles then went to see the new Twister movie. Now I am prepping for the daunting work week ahead :)

reply

I was surprised by how much I liked Twisters. It wasn't the best movies ever but it was more entertaining than I expected.

People will say they don't use XYZ because it doesn't do ABC but it's often more simple than that. We usually aren't single feature customers. More often, the source of defections are along the lines of:

  1. lack of value
  2. contradictory habits
  3. peer pressure/influence

I'm sure there are others, but (3) is maybe the most difficult to solve for because it's largely unconscious and we are motivated to deny it as a "thing."

If you set your autowithdraw threshold to 0 it should keep it at zero.

How did it go yesterday? VERY well. I enjoyed the break from work and took advantage of it to study and share on SN.

Today the work week started, so I'll be a bit busy at work, but what will happen when it's over? The answer is simple: Study and share on SN.

We'll see the news that predominate and the hottest debates. But we're sure to learn a lot from everyone's comments.

Weak minds straw man their opponents.

Strong minds steel man their opponents.

reply

Sometimes I suspect their minds are strong, but they perceive their own minds as weak.

The moment someone strawmans me, I stop discussing things with them and let them live in their straw world.

reply

That's very wise. It's probably more of a character issue than intelligence.

I tend to avoid people who behave that way, but sometimes I engage because I'm thinking about the audience, rather than expecting a fair hearing.

reply

That's generous. That kind of thing drives me too mad.

Why does inflation seemingly lead to lower quality products? You would think people would make them better by spending the additional money due to how much more expensive it will be in the future to replace

Defund the PoliceDefund the Police

Various groups and movements have called for the “defunding of the police”, and are promoted heavily by many main stream media outlets and publications.

However this is an orchestrated propaganda psyop set up to manipulate the general public to move in the opposite direction.

A “psyop” is short for the phrase Psychological Operation or Warfare, which is the term given to the action of government’s influencing the perceptions and attitudes of an individual or group, often foreign but become increasingly domestic.

Based on the ill-conceived and incorrect assumption that the police deal in law, and are there to “protect the people”; most individuals consider defunding the police a bad idea.

Usually based on the left-right divide, people who are unable to critically think and cannot see the deception are easily persuaded to go against the opposing side.

This results in the refunding of the police, which often includes them being granted more “powers” given to them by government.

Note: the amount of political power is dependent on the number of brainwashed slaves.

The truth is the police have no authority, nor does the government, but people with a slave mentality have just given away theirs.

Note: it should also be noted that from the earliest conception of the police, they have been working with organised crime. The “criminals” create the “problem”; the police are there to “solve” the “problem”.

The police, courts, lawyers and “criminals” are all working together against you for money.

It is a scam and a racket, design to generate billions in revenue while simultaneously suppressing the poor and weak, referred to as the “citizen” or “slave to the system”.

If you think you are safe by giving away your sovereignty, rights and authority to another, you never will be.

A friend thinks the "defund the police" movement is actually the federal government's incentives acting to disarm local LEOs so that we move to a federal police force and can't defend ourselves from oligarch overreach.

100 sats \ 0 replies \ @ek 2 Sep 2024

This reminded me of the day I almost started running away from undercover cops. They stopped their car next to me, stepped out and looked at me in a way I knew they were trouble. It was also in a part of town known for more crime. I started walking faster and crossed a corner and almost started running but then I heard "Police! Stop!" from behind and I indeed stopped. They wanted to search my bag and I didn't resist because I didn't want any trouble, had nothing to hide and was still trusting authority. I should have at least asked for their ID though.

But how could a civilian recognize a fake ID from a real one anyway if they have never seen one before?

Also, anyone can shout "Police! Stop!".
