GM☕️☕️💜✝️Sounds good. Looking forward to it. Sometimes something that sounds good is perceived as cool and people willingly fall in line and adopt it. An action or idea is much more likely to spread and be acted upon if it just works or is seen as cool. The opposite is sadly tue when a good idea is perceived as uncool or square even though it works. I’m sure you will present a more eloquent case.🤝

How to make freedom cool? How to make figting for freedom cool? I think it's a question of competing ideas and cooperation in developing ideas. Meaning, one idea, one man isn't enough. Therefore, making competing for and cooperating in developing cool ideas about freedom and freedom fighting is essential. Furthermore, what can we learn from how Bitcoin developed. I think all of this is truly essential. And I'm not afraid to take a swing and miss. Because, people will see that the main thing is that I try again. And again. And again, with a FAFO attitude and the following philosophy: I think I can do this. I want to do this. Here we go - now I do it. Again and again. That's also how Bitcoin came about. It involved many people working over time, many together with others and some perhaps mainly alone. But Satoshi's superpower was persistence. And persistence is something I and many others have. What about you? What will your contribution be? I'm all ears.

Well… success is cool but how to get there? Displaying individual sovereignty by how you walk and talk about the things going on in “the news”. Showing how you have regained hope and control by adopting a different world view in regards to money, politics and communications. When you speak with even a little knowledge about money and censorship people cock their heads and stroke their chins. They may not agree or go along but they tend to pay more attention and respect to you and observe you even closer as days go by. Those with a curious mind or openness to ideas that differ from theirs will soon not oppose you and may even warm up to you and try your idea on for size. If they do and your ideas work for them or help them make sense of the world they might say to themselves “cool”! I guess it is a variation of evangelizing. Walk the walk talk the talk. Some times with words always with actions. In baseball if your batting 300 you’re doing pretty good. Even the good lord didn’t bat 1000!

Yes, I think ideas need to be backed by humans who show they are humans, with all that involves, and prove that the ideas are actionable. After that it's mainly a question of how to speed up the copying process. But, there is a key challenge here that I'm struggling with: How plain must or can the idea be, for both having the quality that - it is efficient in terms of enabling freedom - actionable for someone who are capable of demonstrating it's actionability and - facilitating fast copying among a great number of people? It's sort of identifying the core of something which is hugely important
