Boomers took a high-trust, high capital society and spent it down to deep debt. Bitcoiners will be building that trust back up through savings.

This leftist is doing what Bitcoiners have been doing for ages. Gotta love the Keynesian Brainwashing that makes him think this will hurt Trump.

I am part of Gen X. This election felt like to me the first real victory over the Boomers.

The big divide in the US is between merit and rent-seeking. For rent-seekers, toeing the ideological line is extremely important. For merit-seekers it's doing/being/creating the best. In a sense, I'm surprised this battle came so early because this battle is Bitcoin vs. Fiat in a nutshell.

DOGE should abolish the TSA. $12B in government expenditure, but more importantly, a huge tax to anyone traveling by plane in time.

Results are not linear, at least for most things. You put in 3 years into rock climbing and improve a lot. Then you put 3 more in and improve very little. Then you put in another year and you find yourself doing things you didn't dream of doing. We like linearity. It's put in this much effort, get these predictable outcomes. Put in a little more effort, get a little better outcomes. What dirves us crazy is putting in a lot of effort and not seeing results. It's discouraging if not devastating. But the world is non-linear and the curve of effort and time vs results is maddeningly unpredictable, so we make artificial linear outcomes. This is why jobs are so popular. They don't require specific outcomes, but pay based on time put in. And why entrepreneurialism is so scary, the results are non-linear. This desire for predictability is at the heart of why people tolerate fiat money. Central banks promise some level of normalcy in return for continuous theft. Sadly, all that volatility just gets built up until it explodes some place as hyperinflation, war or worse. So embrace non-linearity. If you're on here in a sense you already have. Bitcoin price is very non-linear and so is post engagement. But embrace it more. Because the wins are worth it and because it's more in alignment with reality.

Our superpower is our inability to be shamed into submission by the authorities.

Great! You can pump and go away in a few months then.
