Of course the acceleration in consumption and desperation to spend the money would be the first order. In second and third order is not clear. There is something dizzy about pricing things. And this dizziness extends to the relationship with people. And this extends to moral and ethic values. So the social net of intertwined relationships starts to decay and feels a bit unfair in a weird equilibrium. From boss to employees to father and sons to friends and friends. It would be long to elaborate. Money as we know is the measurement of value. Now in he Fiat world values are corrupt and confused. Truth is twisted. Imagine adding up to that equation the time acceleration fire of an inflationary currency. It burns time. It feels like there is no time. It's a constant hurry into survival mode. Fight or flight. Work, consume, hamster wheel mode. And the notions twist to think we only get out by working more that leads to more twisted value consumption. And the fault of it not working is people who fail at wheeling the hamster wheel. So fury arises. So it starts to weaken threads of knitted relationships between brothers sisters owners loaners renters wives and husbands and fathers mothers and even babies. People get resented. They suspect eachother. Who is more a con-man? Who is ahead of the inflationary scam? So it leads to more printing money. Because they all whine at whoever is above them in the ponzi pyramid scheme. So they all look up aswell. And at the top there is a money printer. And it spits some notes and everyone takes them grudgingly. And it creates this resonance of grudge resentment defense of what's supposed to be mine. But in a retrograde way: "This notes were supposed to be mine three months ago, what the heck am I doing with them now in the present?". "fuck it, lets spend them" And it creates the stagflation aswell. Things get smaller for the same price. Things you buy start to go cheaper in manufacturing so they loose quality. So now you cannot even trust envelopes or objects. They offer you less for more. And in the end it's all this crazy mindstate of people going crazy. And being affected more or less by this but in the end it permeates. This resonance is unseen by those not orange pilled. It's a hamster wheel inside a labyrinth. And the Bitcoiners just flew up. And we saw it all from above.

Devastating. Thanks for taking the time to write that. When you mentioned the constant confusion and fight or flight it reminded me of the strain that puts on people's health. Your body can't fight off infection or desease when your stress levels stay elevated for extended periods. People often also lean on drugs or alcohol to cope with the stress.
Exactly like that. And we are lucky our purchasing power is decreasing and have not been high in decades. Because this mentality and paradigm with high purchasing power makes a tsunami of self destructive forces.
