    Damn bro, I think I might be in love with you.

    Generally there are two outlooks on life: Pessimistic and Optimistic. The latter is the better, but the harder as well. Fear, hatred (resulting from fear), etc. all bring us down and into the former. However, when we’re optimistic we take tremendous leaps of faith and get this: WE WIN. That’s the best part about all of it.

    So yeah, I know the governments of the world are the most corrupt things to have been on this earth because 1. their reach is massive due to technology and 2. their propaganda networks spread far and wide. They are lying to us and manipulating us 24/7, believe me on this one. But… in the end, we are infinitely powerful. They are not. We rise as one (we don’t even need to), they are done. However what keeps us down is their manipulation is run in such a way as to make our fellow man target us when we do rebel.

    Why do you think we have this racism BS with Trump and the BLM, or feminazism, or liberalism in general? It’s so that the smart(er) people fight the indoctrinated ones thinking they are stupid instead of what they really are: slaves. So once we figure out how to rise past that, we’ll be in good shape.

    We’re in good shape already, 1 step forward is better than 200 back. The first step is waking up and seeing that something’s off. Let’s do this.

    Mobility is nice. Go start a new life somewhere else. With Bitcoin you have the whole world to choose from.

    Score a laugh point. Sovereign. I’ve worked in every continent except Antarctica and I’ve worked in more countries than you can name. Have you even been outside of the Anglosphere, outside of the West, or even overseas? And no, tourist resorts in Mexico and the Caribbean don’t count.

    All your money is in BitCoins, Uncle Sam is knocking at the door, and you’ve decided to move.

    How are you going to leave the country, genius?

    You’ll need a passport, but you’ve got to pay Uncle Same for that. You’ll need a visa too, but you’ll have to pay Uncle Third World Hiding Place for it. You could have paid for both ahead of time, but do either Uncles take BitCoins?

    You could smuggle yourself out of Uncle Sam Land and into your new Uncle’s patch, but do smugglers take BitCoins?

    Your visa for Uncle Third World Hiding Place is going to run out after a while. Can you use BitCoins to renew it? If you cannot get an extension, will the local “constabulary” and other officials take bribes in BitCoins to let you stay? What happens when you get a tooth or tummy ache? Will the local dentists and doctors take BitCoins? How about food? Housing? Transport? Booze? Or a thousand other things?

    While BitCoins will be more accepted and easier to use in countries with advanced economies and telecommunications, the problem is those are the same such countries require the most documentation for simple existence. You can easily hide without papers, visaa, and the like in some Laotian hill village, but you’re not going to be paying the locals for room and board with BitCoins. They’re “primitive” enough to want money they can use without a laptop, cellphone, and internet connection.

    As Survivor succinctly explained, you’re tripping b~~~~. As ZenState expansively explained, you know next to nothing about history. And as I’m telling you now, you nothing about how the real world outside of your laptop works.

    Ditch the dream and start learning about reality.

    He’s not wrong though. You can have multiple dollars. I have lots of s~~~ty third world money. You can have different currencies and no one gives a f~~~. And if you have enough of ANY currency then you can buy your way out of anything.

    You seem to misunderstand from your high horse. I’d assume you’d know this if you actually traveled across the world: you can convert almost anything if you have five minutes. But apparently your knowledge isn’t too high.

    I don’t blame you, you’re scared to know that there is a way to always rise up and fight for the future. You don’t want to, they scare you. The idea of being chased scares you. It scares me too. But if not fighting for the future, then what? We’ll all die someday. Better to die for the right things rather than the wrong.

    This may have been mentioned:

    How can you stay 100% invisible with Bitcoin when there is a record of the initial transaction with the bank or Bitcoin broker who presumably reports the initial transaction?

    Yes the individual transactions cannot be traced. But there are records of the initial purchase and “cash out”.

    How do you get around this to 100% ensure your privacy?

    Self policing. Damn isn’t that the truth.

    Cows are slaves on the farm in stalls and chains getting milked. A cow tries to escape the other cows “report him”. A cow tries to stop the hoses attached to it’s udders from milking it to death… the other cows moo foul.

    “Moo! Moo!” “Report that cow!” It’s not getting milked has much as me!!!! It’s cheating!!!

    These “cows” even want “credit” and “admiration” and “bragging rights” for getting milked. Which is taken by force.

    I see this with taxes: “I pay my fair share of milk!” now “pay your fair share of milk like I do!”

    People go through their entire lives believing they are “good” or “doing the right thing” as “good people” for doing this.

    Sovereign, because we are men and not women so we have the luxury of being frank, so don’t overreact with what I am about to say.

    You are full of s~~~.

    Now let me explain why. You are correct, in the financial respect, about your own future. You should/probably/will make bank with what you are doing. And then you will be stuck for the rest of your life convincing yourself money will help you achieve happiness or to experience anything of value…..like a massive ball and chain around your neck.

    But the truth of it is, for the rest of humanity (specifically men) whole civilizations cannot have people with the same job, which is why there are civilizations. Everyone has a different function. Everyone has a place, like a part of the body. But with the digital and technological age quickly pinning the dignity of man to the ground, most of the jobs which were once human oriented are no longer human oriented. And like I said before whole societies cannot be made up of one or two jobs (fixing and creating technology, hell machines are starting to be made for those jobs too).

    Also, with most men relegated to the function of a consumer with no real jobs, who do you expect to buy/use your products in 20-30 years. If man is subject to government stipends to survive, and we are entering a global government, in many respects you will be subjective to government for you wealth as the consumer as no real freedom of his own.

    But let’s get to the meat of it, what it is to be a “man”.

    What type of life, what type of experiences will man have in an age where he cannot really “do” anything. What wealth, what freedom, does a man have where he is quickly becoming obsolete? What dignity lies in the loves and pleasures of a man who is nothing? Are there any to be had other than the cheap imitations like videogames (work/war) and porn (sex). That is what man is being relegated to, a cog in a cold steel world where blood and sweat mean nothing. Where man can never believe anything because his will is weakened. Where man cannot ever feel real hope because he is not permitted to despair. Where man cannot love anything because he is not allowed to bleed and sweat for it, to make real sacrifices of real labor and pain. We are forced to be children our whole lives by a system that declares the experience of man as meaningless.

    But I get it, you and all your kind are hot s~~~ because you make “money”. But you have nothing. You techno geeks cannot experience anything which cannot be seen through a screen which you created with your own hands, a permanent prison of the window shielding your type from a reality you don’t have the slightest fortitude to deal with.

    I bet none of your “type” can tell me what it feels like to actually work chopping wood by hand or starting an actual fire to keep yourself warm and the joys that come with it. To kill an animal, be covered in its blood, so you will have something to eat. Or what is like to care for a grandmother, father, who is dying because their “vulnerabilities” might make you freak out as they lie there taking nitro glycerin for chest pains they might die from in 5 minutes or smell of diarrhea because they are too old to control their bowels.

    You see people like you want to avoid all those “real experiences” because you believe the “darkness” of the human experience is something to be avoided like the plague. What you close your eyes too is the triumph of the human soul as it looks into the face of mortality. You see, in that moment of suffering comes forth true compassion and real love as a father struggles on to live out of love for his family to keep moving when his heart is failing. Or a daughter who takes care of her dying mother whose few words are those of “thank you” as she is too old to reason much more. In those moments of struggle the truth of humanity is shown, the glory of man lies in his mortality. It is a glory that echoes through time, not in great fabulous tales or heroic movies, but in the everyday struggle of trying to live. And I mean live, not survive. To live in a manner where one actually experiences reality and is not a bystander passing judgement on something he knows nothing about.

    Life it not the fake heroic action hero garbage or the stupid romance novels that the virtual world relegates as an “experience”.

    You think creativity and the arts will save man? Man will have no real experience of faith/doubt, hope/despair, love/hate to draw from to give him any real inspiration into anything. What is man suppose to look at a screen for the rest of his life? You call that freedom? It sounds more like a poorly written joke to me. The man of modern age talks about the importance of experience, but experiences nothing except a plastic window in his face. (insert drums here)

    We are in a time where the human soul is at war for its own survival against an abyss of technology which relegates it to nothing. And the human soul will win. I am an optimist also, I am optimistic that your way of life will defeat itself and real life, the type of life where one is actually involved and has value, will win. Why? Because the men who have created are too weak and dull witted to step outside the world they created.

    All steel rusts, all stones crumble, but life moves on like an unstoppable current as time violently crashes through all we have created.

    Now I fully understand why most “elders” claim “youth is stupid”. Holy s~~~….
