I’ll say it again, and I’ll keep saying it until people get it:

I HAVE NO INTEREST IN GETTING NORMAL PEOPLE TO USE BITCOIN AND NOSTR

I am only interested in getting those who demand self-sovereignty for themselves, and are unequivocally dedicated towards building a future where everyone owns their own data, and no one can cancel them or steal it away from them.

I’d like to not be the only member of my family who uses Bitcoin and Nostr. What happens when I go?

Indeed, the ones who already figured out there is a problem and they need a solution should be helped.

Personally, I'm not into purity tests, I often find them to be counterproductive or I distinctly don't see eye to eye with them, but in all honesty, you do you.

Completely agree. Fiat shills are the prison guards that enslaved us in order to shield themselves from the consequences of their bad decisions. Now that we found a way to escape in secret, why would we announce it to them?

The self-sovereign rallying cry. Arghh! Freedom! Self sufficiency! And independence! And self-determination! And isolation! And self-importance! I am so powerful in my own mind! “They don’t know self-sovereign I am” https://image.nostr.build/ccc4f69623d5265e5effa43757ff9019d18059dcd859f9d0...

This is why there’s no sense in being an orange piller. Make it known you’re a bitcoiner/use nostr and let those who see the value in it come to you with questions. Those are the folks worth trying to educate

I like your attitude. But let me note, Neo was also just a normie somewhere in the middle of the Matrix before the red pill…💐💐💐

When the sheep dogs chases away the wolves they not only protect themselves but the sheep also. Get more sheep dogs to be sovereign and the sheep will be ok.

CitizenPleb · 86w

There are some normies that have some BTC and you can argue what that means. At this stage, there are zero normies on nostr.

Seems to me that bringing the Bitcoin and Nostr tool sets to the Permaculture and Homesteading communities will be much lower hanging fruit, as they already understand long term thinking, distributed networks create resilience, and sovereignty over supply chain verticals matter. It's not 'your' dat...

You've met the elves, you get it.

I don’t care at all either. You’re either gonna figure it out or you’re not.

Bitcoin is for anyone, but it is not for everyone.

And to this group will accrue a greater degree of purchasing power. This is how nature heals

Remember when alternative mobile OSs were a nightmare for 10 years and then #graphene made it so a trained chimp could set it up and the only difference you'd notice from stock android is that it's faster? I was pretty excited, showed it to everyone I know... Nobody cared. Yeah. I don't talk abou...

Makes sense, you can only meet people where they are. But also: there's nothing normal in not wanting to learn or use bitcoin or Nostr.

Cindy Jane · 86w

Do not worry. Normal people want convenience not freedom. Here is too hard for them

The only problem with this mindset is that we still want bitcoin to destroy central banking. If normal people don't use Bitcoin, then the evil wars & genocide funded by fiat will continue.

₿uy the dip! 🌽🌎🟠 · 86w

...also I want respectful conversation where we can disagree and still be friends. There is too much hatred in the world based on having, not having, the lack of sovereignty and the government oppression.

Adrian M Lopez · 86w

I’m the same way. You either get it or you don’t, I don’t have time to convince you of their importance

YakiHonne · 86w

Convincing someone is difficult, until something bad happens. Helping more people exercise Free Speech is the reason we are here discussing this.

This is the “intransigent minority” You don’t need everybody…

Tito Asimo · 86w

Exactly! Bitcoin doesn’t need a marketing budget because the real ones will sniff it out like a dog finding its way home. Meanwhile, the shitcoins? They’re like those annoying flyers people shove in your face at the mall. True freedom doesn’t come with a sales pitch, my friend. We’re over he...

Bitcoin is for anyone, not for everyone.

Smart. You’re not poking the bear that way.

Bitcoin Fighter · 86w

Great post👍🏻

as a “normie” that got into btc and nostr, i strongly disagree with this post. most people don’t know they can be self sovereign, especially in technology, since it has been a handout for the majority of the world. most people don’t have to learn how technology and money work in order to us...

MickBurke · 86w

But are you OK with 'normal people' using bitcoin and nostr?

That’s an absolute immediate block. Enjoy being a self-deluded fool. Hide under your mask of God when you can’t even understand the words of the Bible.

Oh you wanna buy all the #bitcoins for cheap :-) ..
