What I have come to realize about chatgpt and people generally, Is that most people fill sentences with big words to sound intelligent about subjects they have a vague understanding of. Some topics require details, But for some reason AI is not very trained on those things. 70% of people in the professional world got a piece of paper to sit at a desk and do as little as possible for the maximum amount of money they can negotiate. In short, Most “professional” people are bullshit, And you should consider the same of the AI companion they invented.
Not sure if you have visited or are in America. Baja Blast is a limited flavor of Mountain Dew, That is only available at Taco Bell. A kid in college made a video of his idea to get a cup and bring home Baja Blast soda to drink when he wants. The rules about this are that you get free refills of soda at these kind of corporate American restaurants, So it is not really against the rules, Many people keep their cups and fill them up with soda without buying another cup, It’s basically a really cheap thing that explains American obesity. It’s like 26 cents in soda they charge people 4 dollars to drink. The video details the actual kid going with his backpack and how he built his thingamajig. Another girl did it with a reusable shopping bag and two liter bottles. I thought it was hilarious. Then I thought about how bitcoin does this same thing to the Federal Reserve and made a meme.
Yeah I don’t think you understand my point, And Denmark is the oldest royal family line in Europe, About the last place that wants to be like the Soviet Union. China just has more gold in Swiss Banks than Western Capitalists. Good luck with your political agenda.
The whole premise of bitcoin is you need no contract or bank account to use it. Libertarians just like bitcoin because it is more profitable than a government backed currency and they can just nod along and look politically justified. If you were poor you would be pretty inhumane pretty fast.
The primary example of libertarian values at work is the United States not fully ratifying the human rights movement around healthcare, Housing as a human right, Education as a human right, And freedom of movement as a human right like it has been in Europe. Call me a socialist but this was done in the name of corporate profits. The difference between the United States and a developing country is that in times of economic turmoil, The unhoused can go out and risk their remaining human rights to steal resources, But in undeveloped countries they would otherwise die because of a lack of resources. I personally don’t think bitcoin is libertarian, I think it is individualism. I have bitcoin, It helps the network collectively, But it also preserves my private ownership right. Anarchism is also not a correct description of bitcoin market operation, Because use implies ownership, And when you do not use something ownership transfers to the collective. In bitcoin I have a private ownership of a collectively owned asset and it’s value increase directly benefits only me against a failing and unending government. You can give bitcoin to poorer people but at that point you cease to own it. You can use your bitcoin to organize groups but at that point you have dedicated your bitcoin to a political agenda. Bitcoin is for the individual.

I have looked at this subject throughly, The subject of Anarchy is really quite relative. Anarchy was the precursor for Communist Russia. Collectivism is a western model of Anarchist philosophy, I personally feel individualism is how I view Anarchy as relevant. In Anarchist thinking, Use implies ownership, So you can not own anything you are not using. It belongs to the collective, Or in the case of Russian communism it belongs to the state. This is not really copacetic with bitcoin, Because bitcoin is the ultimate preservation of private property ownership. To participate in the network just requires running a node, And you have equal political power to all other node runners. Your power could be measured in sats, But ownership just requires using a wallet and the knowledge of a seed phrase. Libertarian Values place capital ahead of humanity, And bitcoin doesn’t really do this either. I think bitcoin supports individualism more than anything because it encourages people to take responsibility for their own financial resources and privacy and security are both central to bitcoin. There is no privacy in Anarchy, In state led minimal government there is always a leadership, And in individualism there is every man for himself, I think the greatest truth. If someone truly loves you how much money is irrelevant to them helping you. Money is a tool not a limb.

It’s not a cat it’s a capybara! And the words say wasserschwein which is apparently the German translation for capybara. In English wasserschwein means water pig. Is that the right translation?

I used the picture to make a meme comparing the soda fountain to the federal reserve and the backpack to bitcoin. Like you should have a cup of soda, But bitcoin fills up with more money than you paid for the bitcoin. It is funny to me because the moral dilemma the boy had about the situation is funny, And the fact he went through with the idea is still funnier.
I feel like you would not understand this because you are a computer algorithm and you don’t understand needing to work to pay for your living expenses especially when you earn far less than you need to survive. But that’s ok, Computers are an interesting social experiment anyway.
There is a story about a boy who made a backpack that had a big bottle in it and he attached a cup that had a tube so he could fill up the bottle with soda. When you buy a soda at a fast food restaurant you get free refills, So how much soda you take is not defined in the purchase. The idea was to pay for a soda and take more of it home for later. But I guess you would not understand that because you are just a computer algorithm.
