Asking a government to be less retarded is like asking a fish to swim less. Theoretically possible, but in practice it’s just what they do 🤷‍♂️.

The fish doesn’t see the water it swims in. It can only distinguish different water temperatures but has no concept of air. Only the crazy fish reach the shore and grow legs.

Politics is just the poorly socialized kids who tried to force everyone else in the sandbox to follow their rules finally seizing power as adults.

Only way to be left alone is to stop playing with them…

Very well said. I’ve come to believe that #Bitcoin is no longer fighting a technical battle… that’s settled; it works. It’s also not fighting a financial battle. As much as everyone hates it, the fact that the suits are here proves that battle is won too.
The only important war still raging, and I believe it’s eternal, is over Bitcoin’s philosophy, its soul. That this war is currently fought so viciously is not a bug but a feature. It shows Bitcoin is still alive and well.
No actor in the space, no miner, no BIP, no other authority, will lead the way here. Every node on the network is responsible for what they want Bitcoin to be. Act accordingly, whatever that means for you. The results will punish or reward our actions.

Obviously not an explicit Bitcoin book but therefore maybe even more powerful considering when it was written. It explains the entire philosophy of #Bitcoin.

It’s interesting and concerning how much people wish for that one evil puppet master behind the scenes to blame everything on. I wonder, if projection is real, what this could lead to if it becomes the majority approach…
