Well said.
I share your pessimism. Financial literacy tends to be terrible among young people, time preferences so short, and willingness to learn is dogshit. There are exceptions, but...the amount of people who have said to me, I am too poor, stupid, old, or I don't have enough time to learn about this magic internet money, I think, is a reflection on peoples' general lack of awareness, consciousness or just complacency.
HOWEVER, what gives me hope is that I didn't take any interest in Bitcoin until this year, being a teacher and generally not a very technical person. But, I've consumed content voraciously, read all the guides I could from @DarthCoin, listened to bitcoin podcasts anytime I can get time alone. I would still consider myself behind the curve, he might call me a padawan, lol but idc. It hasn't even been a year and I've changed my life philosophy completely (I've written a bit more about it). I'm never selling my Bitcoin.
Personally, my fiat life is about educating others. That's why I like to write here on SN. I think maybe shared consciousness can synergize into beautiful metamorphisms. I'd love to be at the point where I'm knowledgeable enough to start a freedom academy so parents can opt out of public schools and give their children proper education. I'd like to see others wake up, as I have. That's why I'm Fiat Revelation.
Kudos to you, great to hear that you've embarked on this journey of discovery.
