 It's time for a culture shift in Bitcoin and I can see it happening. 
 Shift to ...? 
 I guess he’s alluding to the so-called “leftists / socialists / anarcho-communists”. 
 no 
 No? What a pity. I was hoping they are finally coming in and kicking off the annoying people who call themselves “libertarians” but then simp 24 hours a day for Blackrock, Saylor, Daddy Gensler or Milei 24 hours a day.
Hey, I rhymed by accident. 
 “Kick out” was what I wanted to say. Anyway. 
 Well I want the whole political spectrum here eventually. Don't you?  
 Whether I want them or not, this is an open protocol, but sure. This was my point. 
 Yeah I should have read the whole thread. Context was everything there :) 
 Ew ancoms 🤢 
 Cypherpunks don't give a fuck about dietary bullshit, tradwifes, seed oils, sunning your balls, etc. 
 😂 
 lmaooooo bitcoiners selling stem cell therapy 
 I can't believe "sunning your balls" is a thing.  
 You've never sunned your asshole too? 
 Cypherpunks do so 
 It's fantastic man, try it 
 It's certainly not a safe thing :)  
 join the club. hahahhaha 
 Until you do 
 😂😂

Bitcoiners❌
Nutritionists ✅ 
 I want sarcasm and dark humour with lots of building 
 I like my bitcoiners like I like my coffee--dark and bitter. 
 Absolutely. 

A small group of “influencers” promoted lifestyles in association with Bitcoin: Sol Brah (ball sunner) and Saladino (seed oils, former full carnivore, now adds fruit/honey) are referenced often. Plus the usual carnivore dinner promoters: Saifedean, Vays, Bitstein, Song and gang. 

If there’s a source on the bread crumbs leading to bitcoin to tradwives, I’d love to see it. 
 Over-indexing on these signalling memes is what helped kill Urbit, too, in my opinion.  
 but it's pretty nice to sun your balls..

a couple of minutes of privacy in a crazy world! 
 Insofar as cypherpunks overlap with extropians, they might wanna care about seed oils at least 
 Someone’s out here really promoting some testicle sunning…reminds me of this comedy show where they were advocating to their city council on the benefits  of perineum sunning. 😂🤣😂 
 Truth... 
 😂 
 Avoiding seed oils is more important than bitcoin 
 The fiat standard encourages the use of seed oils 
 Agree 
 nuts in the sun 
 Have fun staying fat and docile 
 Yeah they’re unhealthy basement urchins for sure 
 Bitcoin culture affinity scams 🤙 
 Sunning balls is a better meme than bitcoin at this point 
 Health is much more of a priority than anything else. Without good health, you basically have nothing but misery and a very short life.  
 I heard Instagram is great for health tips 
 Health above everything.  You will one day find out.  
 Instagram is great for health tips 
 Yeah? Recommend me some accounts I can go look at. 
 Lmaoo 
 It’s true 
 Anything involving balls is however objectively hilarious  
 Wrong 
 Speak for yourself bud. We do care about inflation. Some seem to be forgetting that. 
 It’s about privacy? 

Ending fiat? 

Separating money from state? 

Making governments irrelevant? 

Asking for a friend? 

What priority #1? 
 Defeating the central bankers and central planners and mainstream media? 
 love sunnin' the balls.  
 Freedom and responsibility ftw 🫡 
 Well I know I should improve my diet, I want a tradwife, I prefer olive oil, but I do not sun my balls 
 Glad I left that shit behind along with the pure NGU crown on BT 
 I agree. Frapping do whatever you want to do, as you should with your Bitcoin 
 But the also seem to die early, Calle. 🤷🏼‍♂️ 
 They 
 That last part though... 
 Maybe they should. Fuck those seed oils 
 #freedom only 🙏

 But seed oil bad 
 I know where this reaction comes from, being imposed about a certain culture doesn't sit well for cypherpunks/bitcoiners. However, seed oils are bad for you and there's scientific evidence that they contribute to heart disease. It just isn't talked about because of incentives. It is another rabbit hole in itself but here's a pretty good overview to start: https://openheart.bmj.com/content/5/2/e000898

There's definitely a lot bullshit in the world, but avoiding seed oils isn't part of that. 
 i don't understand the phrase "being imposed about" ... what do you mean? 
 Being forcefed something. Insisting to others that your lifestyle is superior. 
 yes please let's focus on the important stuff.

sunning your balls if probably fine though. 
 They are too busy writing code. 
 life expectancy short. 
 I mean, I read that subbing the testes had measurable effects 🤷‍♂️ 
 I really love sunning my balls too ! 
 Cypherpunks write code, true, but diet is not bullshit and getting to decent food can either make or break your life 
 gfy 
 Cypherpunks are night owls that eat microwaved pizza and mess up their keyboards with it🐸 
 From and to?

What pisses you off the most? Infighting between community members is one thing I’ve noticed lately that is a total waste of time 
 But if we all eat whole cows and copy American/Regional Hodls we'll be ok right? 
 The universe is in perpetual motion. 
 It's happening! 
 The Bitcoin culture door has been blown wide open. 

Nostr is how we set out on a new course, Twitter was the bottleneck.
