 Nobody said otherwise bro.
who tf are you talking to? 
 Your whole post said otherwise, so who tf do you think you are? 
 literally all my post says is
"the US dollar is the unit of account"

and you're trying to make it into some tribal Monero/Bitcoin thing

get fucked 
 If you didn't have your fiat glasses on, you would see that #Bitcoin is the unit of account and wouldn't be using USD

get fucked 
 When you compare the prices of two assets
in a graph
using the US dollar for comparison
(because thats what prices are)
you are using the USD as "a unit of account"
because it is the common unit of valuation.

another example,
people offering to accept payment in BTC
measure the amount of BTC they'll accept in USD
(because thats what prices are)

in these situations,
USD is called the "unit of account"
(because thats what prices are measured on)

and it doesn't change because you do some division in your head.

it isn't anybody elses fault you don't know what words mean. 
 My only point is that this common unit is only so because of the State

 All I said was that the unit of account is so because of the State. If the unit of account was determined in the free market, then it would be #Bitcoin

And this shows I "have no idea what a unit of account is" how exactly? 
 don't feel bad bro

 no, you unfortunately just keep proving the #Bitcoin maxi point. And utxo made a similar point to mine.

I guess some people just don't want to be helped, and you're on that list 
 uh huh
tell yourself whatever you need to get through the day I guess

otherwise,
show your fucking work. anyone can talk shit.

doing division in your head doesn't change the unit of account.

you're dividing by USD *denominated* prices for gods sake. are you retarded? 
 But you're only doing this because everyone in the world is forced to be using USD.

If the free market took over, we would be doing this division with #Bitcoin

Do you get that simple fact, or are you retarded? 
 I never said anything about that.
Sure you might be right.

That would be a better world with MUCH more accurate pricing.

You can't price accurately on a fiat UoA.
Which is the point on the conversion and something bitcoin maxis agree with,

except when fiat charts confirm their perspective on the inevitability of Bitcoin.

*Those* charts are an extremely correct hard money measurement 🙄 
 Since value is subjective, the only way to truly know #Bitcoin is the true unit of account is to see that it takes less sats to buy things you normally buy over time
