A shortcut for understanding geopolitics: If an organization includes the words "world," "international," "united," or "union" in its name, it is an organized crime racket.

Western institutions that lost all credibility between 2014 - 2024: Legacy Media Governments Healthcare Academia Medicine Banking Finance Military Law The whole damn thing is being held together with glue sticks and bubble gum. I think most throughout society are still in denial though. Or sound asleep. Clown world.

The world is ruled by organized, violent, criminal con artists. Once you realize this, world events begin to make a ton of sense. #Bitcoin

For 99% of people, the best strategy for wealth preservation is saving, not investing. Investing requires a high level of intelligence, skill, and emotional regulation. I'd bet there are only a few hundred thousand people on the planet who are truly cut out for investing in equities. I'm almost definitely not one of them. For everyone else, the simple strategy is best. Produce something of value. Save in hard money. Get on with enjoying your life. Simple and effective. #Bitcoin

I'm at the point in my #Bitcoin journey where I truly DGAF what's going on in the macro. I buy a little bit every day. When I have large fiat inflows I smash buy a lump sum. I transfer from the exchange to my multi-sig vault effortlessly. Psychopath mode from here on out. Fuck the fiat overlords. Their time is up.

The Uncle Jack (Dr. Jack Kruse) rabbit hole is pretty incredible. What I am essentially getting out of it is that there's been a multi-decade effort by the military industrial complex to turn all of society into a blue lit casino. That way, everyone's dumb and docile, and they can control everyone's minds. They can plug whatever narrative they want into the screens, and everyone will lap it up. (Cough COVID cough) Hand up, I was fooled just like almost everyone else. The only way to fight back is to get off your goddamn phone, laptop, or TV screens and get your eyes and your skin into the sun. It seems ludicrous, but I'm not gonna lie, I can see periods in my life where I was isolating myself inside, glued to screens, and I felt absolutely awful. Absolutely diabolical. This is gonna be a tough one for most of the world to accept. We are SO damn addicted to our screens. 🤯🤯🤯

Where does one find the conviction to keep holding #Bitcoin through the volatility? May I suggest mathematics and the law of supply and demand? As Parker Lewis likes to say, "there is too much debt and too few dollars." That is still the case today. Is there a possibility that the masters of the fiat monetary system let the debt unwind? Sure, there is a possibility. But the implications of that are so awful (Great Depression 2.0) that I don't see it happening. Most likely we will see some short term pain, possibility even a recession in '25. And then at a certain point, the Fed prints, floods the system with liquidity, lowers interest rates, and BTC goes bananas to the upside. I am willing to risk the crippling downside of a severe deflationary event because I believe the probability of inflation to be much higher. Plus, if we have another Great Depression, the banks will lose an entire generation's trust. It will be all over for them. I don't see them being willing to go completely belly up. So we HODL on. Printer is (likely) coming.

"Government, even in its best state, is but a necessary evil; in its worst state, an intolerable one."
