The first cypherpunks, being clever lads, began using the internet and #encryption because they were interesting and fun.

“Okay, Johnny, please tell the agencies two things. First, that I’ll do what I can to get the kids to pull back. Second, that they’re fools if they try to take these kids down in their usual hyper-aggressive way. Look at what they did to Ross Ulbricht: They wanted his head on a pike, but all the exercise did was make the agencies look like maniacs, turn Ulbricht into a martyr, and spawn new dark markets.” “I didn’t know that,” he said. “Well, it’s true,” I went on. “These guys have no idea how barbaric they look to the kids on the #darknet.” #Bitcoin #BTC #Plebchain #FollowForFollow #PrivacyMatters #RossUlbricht https://freemansperspective.com/rosc-20-storm-warning/

Our only “weapon” is #cryptography… which boils down to math. This is a point that Satoshi Nakamoto made when he announced #Bitcoin: [I wrote Bitcoin to] win a major battle in the arms race and gain a new territory of freedom for several years. The “arms race” of Satoshi and the cypherpunks was this: They have cops, guns, bullets and court orders backed by them. We have cryptography. #BTC #Cryptocurrency #Crypto #Plebchain #FollowForFollow https://freemansperspective.com/rosc-19-back-shadows/

These young people are quite aware that the powers that be will not like them teaching such things, but there’s really nothing else for them to do. The alternative is to embrace parasitism: to live and die as bureaucrat-controlled zombies. And so they’ve chosen life, even if their choice comes at a price. #Bitcoin #BTC #Cryptocurrency #Crypto #YouthEmpowerment #Plebchain #Followforfollow #Blog https://freemansperspective.com/rosc-18-not-parasites/

The entry of the old folks really made me happy. The deep purpose here isn’t to make #money or even to escape tyranny. Rather, it’s to help life function in the world. And these old folks still have life in them. They should be able to use it any way they wish to. #Crypto gives that to them. #btc #bitcoin #plebchain #followforfollow https://freemansperspective.com/rosc-17-rise-elderly/

Regardless of what we might call mega-government and the associated mega-destructions of the 20th century, humanity has not been overcome and will not be. We are conscious, self-referential beings, able to #create at will and to correct our course; all healthy humans are capable of these things. Beyond that, humans enjoy the act of creation very deeply. #plebchain #followforfollow https://freemansperspective.com/earned-knowledge-l14p4/

World War I began as a moment of mass insanity. A royal heir was shot, a few diplomatic mis-steps occurred, and then millions of people furiously demanded war… vicious, bloody, deadly, torturous war. #History #plebchain #followforfollow https://freemansperspective.com/earned-knowledge-l14p3/

What’s fascinating about #socialism is that it was contradicted to its core, but that people wanted to believe in it anyway. Beyond the fundamental error of seeing #humanity as a type of bee hive, here are three of its biggest contradictions - #plebchain #followforfollow https://freemansperspective.com/earned-knowledge-l14p2/

The outlawing of alcohol failed, of course. It made things worse, not better, and the temperance #laws were repealed over time. The idea of using #government to enforce beliefs has remained and spread, however, though it is less associated with religion these days. Many people now see government as a tool to enforce their opinions. #history #plebchain #followforfollow https://freemansperspective.com/earned-knowledge-l14p1/
