maybe it will end up being nursing. that would be a well dignified way to go. it would have to be in a while, but maybe. it is.. it borders on being realistic. I am not a folksy guy though. what do I talk to these 80+ year old hoes about? maybe they've had time to become decent conversationalists.

>>19813467
The older I get, the more I realize how idiotic and selfish has my family always been. I understand them, but what a fucking bitter disappointed anyway. Same goes for friendships - 95% of them were purely transactional and mutually abusive acquaintances. And don't even get me started on my "romantic" experience.

Truly, sober examination of one's life is a shocking horror. No wonder that high-functioning normies are completely immersed in mindless consumption, casual sex and career rat race. Not even the oldest copium for the masses works anymore, as evident by sharp decline of religion in civilized world.

>>19813399
My theory is that after the 2008 financial crisis (wherein it was revealed that Wall Street was entirely corrupt) the entire country was essentially taken over by the Wall Street oligarchy. I.e. Obama could have, upon the revelation of the vastness of the subprime mortgage corruption scheme, decided to temporarily nationalize, reorganize, and re-regulate the entirety of the financial sector: whereupon when said financial companies reach a certain economic size they became subject to very heavy forms of government regulation and scrutiny. Evidently none of this happened and so Wall Street having been bailed out without being re-regulated (brought to heel as an oligarchic pit of antidemocratic corruption) became the proverbial fox that takes over the hen house. To wit, Wall Street knew it could not change (oligarchy does not surrender itself to actual democracy) and doubtless argued so on grounds of US global hegemony: you need a super-dominant oligarchic financial sector for that (for the biggest fish capable of eating all the other big fish in the world of global finance capitalism).

Consequently instead of retroceding and giving up some of its oligarchic power Wall Street has been tightening the screws on whatever remains of democracy in the US: its share of the economy continues to grow and the politico-economic power of the 99% is at a nadir (growth of the precariatized gig economy). But more to the point the 2008 financial crisis was never truly resolved because Wall Street, having been involved in the largest criminal scheme in the history of the US, was never substantively reformed. The too big to fail private financial institutions noted and permanently responded to their conditionless bail out by deciding they were entering a new stage of capitalist development in the US: from now they would decide, in lieu of government regulators or impartial economic scientists, what was economically real and what was not (and by extent *what was real as a whole*).

In short, the market became even more rigged than before, precisely because no actual sectoral reform was required by the government: this meant that further massive bailouts would be all but inevitable and that simultaneously Wall Street's control over the government would have to be totalizing and wholly secure in order to enact those bailouts in such a manner that their normalization would go largely unquestioned under a likewise perpetual pall of ideological control of the telecommunicational/informational sectors of the US economy.

These latter sectors have evidently been directed in a no doubt complex multi-directional manner to talk about anything except for the above to the greatest extent possible: in other words, to simultaneously attack the mass public from the left and from the right using the opposing camps of Wokism neo-racialism and Trumpism, thereby creating a perpetual motion machine of mass ideological distraction that leaves the 800 pound gorilla of oligarchic finance capitalism all but wholly untouched, unquestioned, undiscussed, and free to continue its authoritarian mastery of the US polity in se. The financial sector is now fully indifferentiable from a globally-directed empire: it is US empire and the US empire is it and it needs to cannibalize on the world at large because the inherent contradictions and corruption of the system quite simply cannot sustain themselves any other way at this stage in its failed imperial-oligarchic evolution, an evolution that, in any case, is entirely undemocratic in any real sense (absolute mastery over the working class must be had, but there comes a time when this translates into economic irrelevance of the working class itself and thereby the system becomes a tyranny with genuine autophaguous tendencies--this is what the subprime mortgage crisis represented in a nutshell [system eating itself]).

Don't lie. Feminism is not only propped up by contraception (which is bad enough) but also by abortion, the neglect and abuse of children, and divorce. Thankfully those of us who believe in patriarchy, men and women alike, will outbreed you dysgenic, one-child feminists and put an end to your garbage.

>>19814115
>it is far more likely that the "third world shitholes" outcompete the first world
The muslim world will "outcompete" (economically, militarly, civilizationally) the first world? I am not even going to engage in a serious discussion with you.

>>19814115

Technological society will not survive the complete and utter collapse of global supply chains, the loss of productive forces to the rising seas, and the political crises of mass migration on the scales of billions of people.

>>19814129
>Don't lie!
What do you mean? I am not "lying",I am merely answering your question - you asked me whether I meant abortion, I said no I didn't mean that, I meant birth control. Because for as long as birth control and contraception exists women will not be able to be confined to their biological role. Contraception means women (and men) do not perform their reproductive biological role.

>>19814169
Birth rates mean economical, military, and civilizational advancement? Immigration does not imply cultural overtaking, military invasion implies cultural overtaking. They are foreigners on our soil and do not culturally mix with us.

>>19814169
>rising seas
How much have they risen again?

>>19814170
Wrong. Get rid of abortion and feminism is no longer tenable. Get rid of child-abuse (ie. letting the state raise your children while you only see them for a couple hours after you get back from work) and feminism is no longer tenable. Contraception is just one of many degenerate customs that is propping up feminism.
>Because for as long as birth control and contraception exists women will not be able to be confined to their biological role.
Wrong again. Good religious women who do not use contraception and are not feminists will simply outbreed those dysgenic feminist women and contraception and abortion and divorce will be outlawed. It's that simple.

>>19814184
>Birth rates mean economical, military, and civilizational advancement?
No, a higher birthrate means a better society in evolutionary terms.

>Immigration does not imply cultural overtaking, military invasion implies cultural overtaking.
That's not true at all. Demographic shifts ensure cultural changes no matter what. Given that in the West, Western populations are on the decline while other populations increase we can safely say the other groups will overtake the First world. In Europe, that means Islamic civilization will overtake Western civilization. With the arguable exception of America, no society is able to integrate other cultures.

>Roles of the traditional gender binary based on biological function are headed towards a natural disappearance due to technological advancement
natural? I wouldn't call an international lobby for trannies and feminism natural.

either way you're wrong, the "traditional" is the optimal way, hence why Afghans with their patriarchal society managed to defend themselves against empires and foreign State. that "technological advancement you say will only bring enslavement and an atomized society, like the dystopias in 1984, if they're successful that is, which I doubt, more likely their plans will fail miserably and a lot of people will die when that technology is destroyed by plasma storms.

gender doesn't exist by the way, just sex, man and woman.

>this is why the only nations still practicing segregated male/female separation are third world shitholes
there is a natural tendency of different functions since men are not women and viceversa

the first worlders will have to understand the Torah is the truth, otherwise they will parish as well, like all the civilizations before them. Some first worlders are already forming communities based on patriachs (father, elder son, elder grandson, etc. plus elders for concils), biblical communities essentially

about the shithole point, are they really shit? the more developed the country the higher the divorce rates, depression, suicide, stress, infertility, bickering and time wasted on nonsense, abominations like teansgenderism and homosexuality.

God wiling people will see the truth before it's too late, but I fear people won't learn.

>All that you can do is seethe
What does seethe mean? Anyway, what I can do is what I do daily, stay glued to God and trust Him. After all, God created everything and cares about me, why would I get stressed over things when God is the One that gives it to me when appropriate?

https://thirdworldtraveler.com/Banks/Tragedy_Hope_excerpt.html

Pg. 51: The merchant bankers of London had already at hand in 1810-1850 the Stock Exchange, the Bank of England, and the London money market when the needs of advancing industrialism called all of these into the industrial world which they had hitherto ignored. In time they brought into their financial network the provincial banking centers, organized as commercial banks and savings banks, as well as insurance companies, to form all of these into a single financial system on an international scale which manipulated the quantity and flow of money so that they were able to influence, if not control, governments on one side and industries on the other. The men who did this, looking backward toward the period of dynastic monarchy in which they had their own roots, aspired to establish dynasties of international bankers and were at least as successful at this as were many of the dynastic political rulers. The greatest of these dynasties, of course, were the descendants of Meyer Amschel Rothschild (1743-1812) of Frankfort, whose male descendants, for at least two generations, generally married first cousins or even nieces. Rothschild's five sons, established at branches in Vienna, London, Naples, and Paris, as well as Frankfort, cooperated together in ways which other international banking dynasties copied but rarely excelled.

Pg. 52: The names of some of these banking families are familiar to all of us and should be more so. They include Raring, Lazard, Erlanger, Warburg, Schroder, Seligman, the Speyers, Mirabaud, Mallet, Fould, and above all Rothschild and Morgan. Even after these banking families became fully involved in domestic industry by the emergence of financial capitalism, they remained different from ordinary bankers in distinctive ways: (1) they were cosmopolitan and international; (2) they were close to governments and were particularly concerned with questions of government debts, including foreign government debts, even in areas which seemed, at first glance, poor risks, like Egypt, Persia, Ottoman Turkey, Imperial China, and Latin America; (3) their interests were almost exclusively in bonds and very rarely in goods, since they admired "liquidity" and regarded commitments in commodities or even real estate as the first step toward bankruptcy; (4) they were, accordingly, fanatical devotees of deflation (which they called "sound" money from its close associations with high interest rates and a high value of money) and of the gold standard, which, in their eyes, symbolized and ensured these values; and (5) they were almost equally devoted to secrecy and the secret use of financial influence in political life.

>>19814383
Pg. 53: The influence of financial capitalism and of the international bankers who created it was exercised both on business and on governments, but could have done neither if it had not been able to persuade both these to accept two "axioms" of its own ideology. Both of these were based on the assumption that politicians were too weak and too subject to temporary popular pressures to be trusted with control of the money system; accordingly, the sanctity of all values and the soundness of money must be protected in two ways: by basing the value of money on gold and by allowing bankers to control the supply of money. To do this it was necessary to conceal, or even to mislead, both governments and people about the nature of money and its methods of operation.

Pg. 62: In addition to their power over government based on government financing and personal influence, bankers could steer governments in ways they wished them to go by other pressures. Since most government officials felt ignorant of finance, they sought advice from bankers whom they considered to be experts in the field. The history of the last century shows, as we shall see later, that the advice given to governments by bankers, like the advice they gave to industrialists, was consistently good for bankers, but was often disastrous for governments, businessmen, and the people generally. Such advice could be enforced if necessary by manipulation of exchanges, gold flows, discount rates, and even levels of business activity.

Pg. 324: the powers of financial capitalism had another far-reaching aim, nothing less than to create a world system of financial control in private hands able to dominate the political system of each country and the economy of the world as a whole. This system was to be controlled in a feudalist fashion by the central banks of the world acting in concert, by secret agreements arrived at in frequent private meetings and conferences. The apex of the system was to be the Bank for International Settlements in Basle, Switzerland, a private bank owned and controlled by the world's central banks which were themselves private corporations. Each central bank, in the hands of men like Montagu Norman of the Bank of England, Benjamin Strong of the New York Federal Reserve Bank, Charles Rist of the Bank of France, and Hjalmar Schacht of the Reichsbank, sought to dominate its government by its ability to control Treasury loans, to manipulate foreign exchanges, to influence the level of economic activity in the country, and to influence cooperative politicians by subsequent economic rewards in the business world.

I don't understand why people assume that satisfaction of the appetite = self-expression. This is especially true in relation to sexual matters. The idea that we should suppress, fight against, or ignore our darker sexual desires is anathema today. People will tell you that if you do that then you're being constrained by society and if you'd just allow yourself to indulge in it you will finally be happy.
Nothing could be further from the truth though. The minute you start getting into the coomer mentality you'll be looker for something more extreme every time, until one day you wake up a tranny. It's true that your sense of shame might be gone, but this is hardly virtuous or "self-expressive".

The state of cryptocurrency in the last years is disappointing. When I first heard about it, I had true hope of it, believing all those words I read and heard on the internet, that it was a great idea, that would take power from governments, corporations and people with big pockets and give them to everyone because it would be a system without a central authority, all that crap, what a naive teenager I was.
Then I watched as it was taken over by speculation and the whole concept of cryptocurrency became just a ponzi scheme with a nice sci-fi name, together came the mining craze, the nfts and its cult.

Most people I meet superficially tend to show themselves to be liberal progressives. And whenever I talk to them, there’s a lot of persona there, and very little candid speech, and there’s rarely any friendship that develops beyond casual acquaintance. Yet those people who speak more candidly, and whom rarely say platitudes, usually show themselves to be more conservative. These people can joke more freely, and aren’t as guarded about their spontaneous opinions.

>>19814839
I don't know if I'm liberal or conservative. I think Marx was pretty much wrong, so if people ask I say I'm conservative. At the same time I think I'm feminist and I am fine with LGBT. I also think nationalism, or at least the preservation of culture, nations and languages, is good, so I'm not liberal. But most conservatives would think I'm liberal.

Most people used to be like this, except for the LGBT part. Most people basically believed in moderate social welfare mechanisms and a relatively liberal society, but were otherwise ordinary patriotic nationalists who would find open borders psychotic.

The party of German unification and the major party for 50 years was the National Liberal party. Nothing contradictory there. Most liberals have historically been nationalists. Liberalism and nationalism aren't contradictory. Hell, even most socialists have been nationalists. In France the majority were for international collaboration among workers, not an anti-national assault on distinct nationalities. In Germany the Social Democratic Party, the party of the vast majority of socialists (a minority of international terror advocates split off into the KDP) was a national party and united with the other parties to fight for the nation when it was a matter of war and basic national integrity.

All that has happened is that a strange propaganda version of hyper-liberalism was imposed as the ideological default, and the international terror advocates (mostly rich people with college degrees) are tolerated as the "radical mainstream." Conservatism was originally paleoconservative after WW2 and was mainly patriotic, nationalist, anti-conservative, but to purge it of even these lingering good instincts, it was ruined by Buckley's generation and converted to neoconservatism, which Colin Powell called a "bunch of fucking crazies," and which is just as fine with hyper-liberalism (its main ideology is "spreading American democracy" abroad with constant wars to justify military spending).

The old welfare state concept, aimed at providing the minimum safety nets to ensure that all citizens were basically on the same footing and could secure a livelihood, was replaced by the new welfare state, which is an ideological apparatus for raising as many drug-addicted non-producing retarded freaks and foreigners as possible. The neocons are famously soft on the welfare state - they make a show of critiquing its expansion, but unlike the paleocons they never critique its current state. It's all a show. The Democratic party and the neocons are both neoliberals. Chomsky called them a single party with two factions until the '90s, and now not even the two factions anymore.

Same thing in Europe. All states are actually run by stagnant cabals. Germany is run by the Verfassungsschutz, which bans and illicitly spies, far more than any tsarist government ever did, on any party that threatens to upset the stagnant "coalition" status quo in parliament.

Resistance to all this means you're normal, not some odious label. Fascism doesn't mean totalitarianism, either. Sometimes fascism just means removing accumulated trash and bad actors like this. Short of fascism, look into Pat Buchanan.

Yeah I don't get what's the real value in crypto. People buy it and wait for the price to inflate then sell. This necessarily entails fucking over those who bought at a high price. So the whole thing is just taking money from people who bought high and giving it to those who bought low. I could be wrong I'm retarded and don't know anything but this is how it seems to me. Just a transfer of money from high-buyers to low-buyers.

watched The Insider. Not a bad film for sure

>>19815135
The same process of nonsensical value exchange and ponzi schemism fuels the ideas behind it. You don't "get" crypto, so people who want to get crypto now get to feel good by giving you half retarded explanations of it they are regurgitating from others, and which they don't really understand either. The people who gave them those half retarded explanations don't understand it either but everybody listens to their youtube channel or twitter or whatever it is so they feel good.

Anything sustained by this much CS dropout bro science can't be good.

George Costanza would get really into crypto, and be really flummoxed all the time.

The original idea was currency, like dollars or euro, to be used to buy and sell stuff in the real world or online. Instead of buying a bitcoin now in hopes of selling for a higher price tomorrow, you would have a wallet with bitcoin and use to buy food, clothes, a new computer or whatever. Funny that its use as the "currency of the deep web" for shady stuff like the silk road was the only time people used it as it was supposed to.
The difference is that it wouldn't have a central figure to control it, like the government or a central bank.
The ponzi idea came later because most people didn't understand it and it was "the future", this attracted a lot of people wanting to fool others into giving them money for promises of huge profits and speculators, that managed to make so much money they became the de facto users of bitcoin instead of the original intention. Other cryptos that came later were used in the same way, either being created for the sake of speculation or being hijacked by these people.

One thing people don't know about depression is that it makes you shitty at hobbies you used to be good at. 7-8 years ago I was really into chess and team fortress 2, but playing them nowadays is like trying to dance while drunk with a blindfold on. You become a clumsy retard at doing things because you're working through it all manually in your head while to everyone else it's automatic. Nothing clicks into place because that part of your brain which ties it all together is offline.

I'm curious about this. Actually, depression is only a subset of this interest. My question is:
>How much influence does our physical state have on our mental state?

I feel like we sort of accept that our minds are in charge of our bodies and steering them, like a driver steering a car. But that's not necessarily the case. It's been discovered that stuff like lead contamination affects our moods, clarity of thought, etc. So does a poor diet or lack of exercise. This tells me that the mind is not above the body, that maybe instead of considering them separately, we should consider them together.

Thoughts?

It's a feedback loop where the body affects the mind affects the body, rinse, repeat. Generally, the healthier you are, the more importance your mind has in the equation. When you are healthy, it's just a matter of directing your will, and you can attain whatever you want. But a sick man, physically or mentally, learns to struggle with the fact that it doesn't matter what he thinks, because all his roads to happiness may be categorically blocked due to his health issues.

>>19816310
Figured as much

I have a rough sketch of a theory that I'm hoping you guys can help me build on. I think that exposure to pornography as a child is equivalent to being molested. It's a sexual experience that a child isn't ready for. I think that so many of the weird and insane behaviors coming out of zoomers is similar to the behaviors displayed by people who were molested. Whats really dangerous is that we've built a culture around affirming these trauma behaviors. People acting out in pain or crying for help is being treated like a heckin cute and valid lifestyle. This is the sick leading the sick. I think if we dont stop the proliferation of internet porn we will become a society of sexually traumatized freaks

>>19816289

>>19816321
i think porn is more of a spectacle as opposed o molestation, which has an intensely physical element

>>19816321
Of course, pornographers want to get children hooked from a young age, there's basically little difference from them physically entering your hike and showing it directly to you and telling you it's hot, sexy. and what you can do to them or have them (porn actors) do to you. Also during the fist decade or so of the internet newsgroups were full of unregulated co, so there's that too.

>>19816321
I don't think viewing porn can be equated with the physical experience of being touched inappropriately. The trauma of molestation is also tied to your relationships with other people - e.g. being molested by an adult you thought you could trust then having a consequence on how you trust adults in the future. You don't get that as much with simply viewing porn. Now I think if a trusted adult showed you porn, that could be akin to molestation, but just stumbling upon it yourself is not *quite* the same. Maybe it is more similar to being flashed on public transport or walking in on your parents having sex - it is traumatising but in a lesser way that most people are able to recover from.

However, I do think you have a point and I certainly don't think it is healthy to be exposed to porn so young.

>>19816310
But there's nothing wrong with finding 14 year olds attractive.

>>19816321

>>19816418
Its evil

>>19816418
Unironically I think that porn has a much different psychological impact on people who have never had sex or do not have much sex. Once I started having sex regularly my relationship to porn changed. I don't think it is good that it is so pervasive in culture especially with young people and of course there are horrible ethical problems surrounding it, however it went from something that felt evil and that I felt guilty for consuming, to simply a casual way to get your rocks off when real pussy isn't available - like eating junk food instead of a healthy meal. But if you are not having much sex then porn becomes emblematic of all the evils in the world.

>>19816418
because it is

>>19816470
How though? What's even the problem?

>>19816321
This is one of the most interesting hypotheses I’ve read in a few weeks.
I’ve wondered about the same thing. Children are watching porn when they’re alone. Problem is I don’t know how’d get any meaningful data by isolating generational trends to a singular phenomenon, controlling for other enormous factors currently identifying zoomers.

>>19816441
I was too. Still am.

>>19816483
Porn represents what you want but can't have. Your natural need for sexual release leads you to porn, but the porn you consume also reminds you of the fact that you can't get what the people in the video are getting. You have to put up with a simulation, which leads to frustration and anger.

At the same time, the girls in the videos remind you of the girls that you would LIKE to fuck but who wont fuck you - so you start to get angry with real life women. You imagine that they are having sex all the time and doing whorish things like the girls in the videos, only not with you. And that pisses you off or it makes you feel worthless or miserable or whatever - so watching porn becomes too painful and you swear off it.

>>19816525
So it's intensifying your desire for sex while also reinforcing your lack of ability to get it?

>>19816556
That's a good way to put it.

I want to clarify that that is not the only reason why people react so negatively to porn. There are lots of reasons (most women have their own reasons for finding porn evil) - but this is one that I would identify as being particularly relevant to the 4chan demographic.

There is this girl I used to date. She is unironically one of - if not the most - beautiful women I've ever known. I could never have believed that a fuck up like me could ever bag her. Anyhow, we dated for a while and she ended it without any good reason really. Whatever, it is what happens. But I caught up with her recently and she just stares at me with these adoring eyes and tells me how much she fucked up, but not a way that she wants to get back together, in a way that feels like we're both protagonists in a Fitzgerald novel and we're two people who are perfect for each other but fated to never be together. I suppose she just likes the idea of me, but not actually being with me. She likes the idea of 'the one who got away', but if we were actually together again she would find problems with me or whatever - easier to keep me at a distance and wonder what could have been.

>>19816672
I guess I didn't provide much context - this was an amicable one off and I am unlikely to see her again for a long time. I have no interest in getting back together with her - so you don't have to worry about me anon.

>>19816625
just say "i'm not your plot device, artard"

>>19816525
For me it got to the point where had developed a desire to produced and star in porn, not to bang beautiful women but to inflict the same self-loathing and hatred I felt on to other viewers.
I knew that even if all my sexual fantasies came true tomorrow it would never balance out the scales of years alone, the only thing left is to inflict my misery on others.

>>19816525
It's interesting how similar your view of porn is to the one feminists have.

>At the same time, the girls in the videos remind you of the girls that you would LIKE to fuck but who wont fuck you - so you start to get angry with real life women. You imagine that they are having sex all the time and doing whorish things like the girls in the videos, only not with you. And that pisses you off or it makes you feel worthless or miserable or whatever - so watching porn becomes too painful and you swear off it.
Porn trains you to objectify women to a point where you only see them as a commodity, instead of building connections with actual people who may be less perfect in appearance, but have much more in common with you, and are just as lonely as you are.

Porn actors are often exploited, and the sex they have for shooting a video is everything but enjoyable. Since I realized that, it has been very hard to get off to 3d porn.

>>19813990
What's Going On on repeat

>>19816827
You know terfs have some interesting points to make about porn. I'm not a feminist myself but their critiques are worth hearing.
I was watching one terf talk about how porn is training young men into extreme fetishism and that theres an exploding interest in sado masochism due to it. Young men then impose their porn warped view of sex onto women who dont know any better and effectively groom them into thinking sexually abusive relationships are normal.
I had a sudden moment of clarity because I realize I did that to my high school gf. I eased her into my bdsm fetish I had developed from porn. I havent spoken to her in years but I have no doubt she's a kinky slut now. Desu, i get hard at the thought of having imprinted my sexuality onto her.

But also the interest in Bitcoin is the belief that it still can be usefully used in the future. 5 ,10 15 20 years, 2 3 years, more and more stores could takes Bitcoin.

The established companies, credit cards, apple pay swooped in and made paying more convieient, so the reason it wouldn't be easy for normal companies to accept bit coin for goods and services is tax stuff.

Bitcoin is like returning to a more primitive form of money (while also being the most futuristic) like a large amount of the population coming together and saying 'using this standard money is in ways hurting us, let's just use these certain kinds of seashells as currency'

Also I geuss it's not practical to use Bitcoin to buy things because that would be like using bars of gold the buy things, there is a fear that the any fractions of Bitcoin is worth more than the item you are paying for.

For example people early on when bought a pizza pie for a Bitcoin.

Buying a pizza coin for 0.00000001 of a Bitcoin is maybe not worth it, because in some time that fraction could be worth x amount of gold, or dollars. But if people have 100 bitcoins, and can afford 100 more, like always, the more resources and assets one has with the confidence they will get more, the easier and more relaxed they can part with larger amounts of value-stores

Death is upon us.

The tone of academic work conveys a hidden emotional load. Thus, educated people assume the following: the world is somewhere trapped in an esoteric university library of unread books and yet more obscure footnotes, and anyway, I am not an expert. I've found very little sense of mystery among educated people is what I mean to say.

Conversations with *un*educated people on "learned subjects" are so much more lively. People have the most incredible and novel insights into how the world works, and it is from here that true learning begins. Then, on the other hand, I meet educated people, and these same conversations immediately drown in theory, competing theories, and hopeless references whatever authors they can grasp at:
>"Uh, yeah, I think X wrote about that, but I never read his case studies, and I heard they're outdated."
>"Oh, I see what you're saying. Well, that's clearly a X-ian perspective, and I think I'm more of a Y-ist".
End of conversation.
The worst thing, though, are deferments to authority, which is only possible if you're talking to an educated person:
>"Well, the X Society recently renounced that position." i.e. you're wrong.

Any brand of scholarship always has an air of exhaustion, and fatal skepticism. I don't like it.

>like using bars of gold
except that gold is stable, it’s not going to be widely adopted because it can drop 50% value in a day and nobody can argue with it or do anything about it because it’s price is what it is (unlike stocks which are only partial speculation due to profit returns like dividends, buybacks, or reinvestment which increases the company’s value) it has no monetary policy keeping its price stable and unlike the stock market bitcoin is a negative-sum game like the lottery or MLM or Ponzi schemes because miners take a cut and your gain is always another’s loss. Ethereum at least has fee burning (similar to buybacks, but not really) so you can close your eyes and pretend that it actually has value

The hoopla with Bitcoin was that initially, it was early crypto, with a solid anti inflation idea of quasi finitism ( at least upper bound, eventually there will be more more minted , right, that is still the unalterable plan?) And pretty much everyone universally git on board, so many people felt it had/has the chance to be a strong international currency.

So that is the hype. The fear that it is, will be highly used, useful, convient (compared to other classical currencies), perpetuates it's demand.

Short term ( speculation, buy and sell dips) and long term ( international sovereign Thee Peoples Currency ) kind of feeds the frenzy.

I don't know. It it is hard to teather down true value to any currency. Exchange rates from gold to paper to bit coin to cars. Ultimately it comes down to man hours and work hours and effort in exchange for a value-storage.

So it's possible the Bitcoin price is purposefully inflated? To try and crash and and create panic and distrust of crypto?

There are a finite number in existence, the extreme hype meant they are extremely in demand, which have the owners leverage, to sell high, which sets the average market price and what it is.

Using it as a store of value against hyper inflation it iffy. Because you still need to convert it to use the value, so really the hope is they will be more universally commercially accepted in the future.

The hype was that they would be a largely used currency of the future. But now it seems they are so finite, and so in demand, there is no motivation to ever use one to buy a car or house with one in 10 years.

I geuss the motivation would be, if you bought 10 bit coin 10 years ago for a few hundread bucks, and slowly as price raised buying more and more.

Maybe in 10 years you could trade one for a new car, if it was like an appreciating investment.

But stores of value always depend on belief, and group commitment, whether native American beads, or shells, or greenbacks, or silver or gold, or tulips, money, or Bitcoin, whatever enough people promise to agree had value, had value.

The resolution of the financial crisis by the US government signing a law that said it now owed nearly a trillion dollars to banks for no reason signaled the final dying breath of the ideals the nation was founded on. It was non-sensical, corrupt, and above all the height of undemocratic legislation. The banks were given the right to be tyrants by meek concession, not a bloody war or campaign of terror, and ever since then they have reigned over the USA with unprecedented contempt and calculating cruelty. It is the ultimate subversion of fascism: a government tyrannically run by culturally disinterested despots with no roots who have replace the nation with the shareholders and it repays its bastard father of an ideology with dividends on human suffering and inequality. The neoliberal order has broken down into unrivaled feudal collusion and blood sucking- not will, not is in the process of- but has!

Looking into it now for the first time, I try to avoid news completely.

Initial thoughts: Bitcoin hating spys must have infiltrated and convinced them to make the Bitcoin city because under a volcano (didn't look into the activity history but that seems sketchy)

Lots of articles about imf.

Like I said above in the last paragraph, money/currency requires mass belief that is all. The money/currency system is a privately owned brand, and they don't want any competing brands.

Bitcoin is a new fancy futuristic brand that skirts the issues of buerocracy, and bank middle men. Like I said about beads and shells, if everyone in the world tommorow said: this type of shell is money now, and everyone said: yes, that would be the case.

So the owners of the money system certainly don't want this thing to happen.

I geuss the other issues apply needing imports and exports. They need to constantly be sending Bitcoin out of their territory to bring the daily goods they need in.

So yeah, maybe El Salvador it was premature plan.

Like I also said, it's way too valuable to use for good and service exchange right now, and not universally adopted enough. So they were destined to fail.

It is very complicated topic, the financial world I do not know much about, but certainly within the next 20 or so years, the general nature of money likely will be very different.

Unrequited love can hurt. That’s also called young love. You throw it at people and wish it would stick. Your reaction to this is what counts. You’re not failing any worse than a basketball player missing a hoop. Dust yourself off and try again. Your love is still there, feel it.

>>19818121
>Then why do I always suffer for trying to love someone?
you need to make sure what you're feeling isn't lust, a corruption of what the greeks called "eros"
eros is all fine and dandy, it can give you energy and strength, like it does to a knight seeking to save his princess, but i think it should not be bigger than agape, agape will stop your suffering when eros is done, you will cherish the time you stayed with your woman, remember the memories with her fondly, and wish her all the best because you love her like you love yourself. This is something which you would need to learn anyway, as your woman would separate from you, either form death or a divorce.

Remember the "like yourself" part though, you don't want to be obssesed, to the point of your own detriment, knowing when it reaches that point an art that takes experience, so go talk to your grandpa and grandma about your issues.

The percent of the population that owns Bitcoin compared to the percent that does not must be what? I have no clue if I had to guess: 0.0000001% to 0.000000001%
Based off completely nothing, I have no clue.

How many people would have to use it for it to be viably readily usable what percent of the pop, everyone?

And how would that process begin?

The owners of the bit coins are bit going to want the sell them, there is no way for many people at once to get enough.

If I recall, one aspect that tries to help this is they can be split infintesinmly or nearly?

So if somehow everyone did own percentage points of Bitcoin it may be like:

0.00000000000000001 of a bit coin can buy you an apple.

And there would need to be justifiable confidence for people to start putting their hard earned bucks into a proposed new financial system.

So who knows who is putting how much money in Bitcoin, maybe china put a few trillion in Bitcoin for fun, maybe big banks did too, and keep their crypto wallets in vaults, maybe they have warehouses of miners.

Maybe those big players benefit a lot from it too, making big daily trades, or tax evasion money laundering.

The core idea of a digital currency 'set in stone's unbiased and independant, ad an alien or angel or sci Fi enthusiast looking down, one is compelled to say, yea that seems natural and futuristic, like the electric car, and how the history of human innovation seems to trend towards convieniance and efficiency.

But the difficulty of immediate mads adoption maybe hurts what seemed to be part of it's original mission.

For instance, wiay would happen if tommorow everyone on earth wanted to adopt Bitcoin as the dole currency of earth? How physically feasible would that be, how long if a process

Which is the current situation, but as soon as the water hits everyone's anus like the austrian school always warned about, people will flee to bitcoin if the internet is still around

>How many people would have to use it for it to be viably readily usable what percent of the pop, everyone?
Only 10% i imagine

>And how would that process begin?
i was "converted" via youtube, meaning descentralized information, then word of mouth i spread what i learned to famlly and friends.

Now what would lead to mass adoption, likely another crisis caused by central banks, but i have seen already bars and restaurants accepting bitcoin, which is a start.

>If I recall, one aspect that tries to help this is they can be split infintesinmly or nearly?
Yeah, more or less

Well it really depends on the who is using. And all the ""politics"" and attempts at unionizing and teaming against Bitcoin adoption. Like anti Bitcoin people enforcing things preventing this. For instance those 10% adopters would need access to gad maybe, electricity, food, other stuff. So that is about supply chain accepting Bitcoin as well. The gas station, the farmer, the grocery store, the shipping container ships, power plants, home owners, etc
