I see you are still unhappy that the development of a good L2 solution is not monero-like and not perfect outright. Has there been a serious LN rugpull/exit? Most will need to get burned first before they come to see anyway, so I do hope someone tries it.
So why would there be difficulty mechanism to prevent miners from overinflating the supply? Why is there even a supply cap? Why have the halvings at all? Are you claiming Satoshi didn't know those properties would make it an excellent store of value in a fiat-centric, inflationary environment?
The reason gold always resurfaced as medium of exchange after periods of government fiat is because during said periods smart risk-takers would hoard it, using it to store value for the future. The masses couldn't care less, they are interested in clown shows, not the real world. So in our current regime what we ought to do is hodl as much sats as possible, probably until our kids come of age. Would you agree?
Might be a good idea to have some in the event it catches on, as a good man once said. How to spend it in the most perfect/utopian way possible comes after, as a good amount have saved their wealth in sats first. If blackrock and co have gotten most of it in the end, it wouldn't matter anyway, would it?

Stupidity is by far the best approach if one desires to hide malintent. Helped by the media, of course, the consumers of "news" will sooner or later start thinking that the politicians/agenrs of the "other party" are all idiots. This will help them cope with all the damage these organizations are inflicting on communities. It pacifies dissent, very effective tool for the controllers.

The "electronic cash" argument was also used by the BCH gang to attack and split the community. Other cucks like CSW tried to "properly interpret" the white paper too.
The hardness of Bitcoin is not a random occurance which someone is using to subvert the network. This property is why many value it highly as a form of savings. Further, the austrian school teaches us that store of value precedes medium of exchange for a money.
Why did the FBI not arrest the supposed criminals doing the CJs, but the coinjoin provider? Why have they been shutting down centralized mixers since forever? The reason is because they can't do much else but threaten legal entities or public devs.

I think at this point they have no other option but to start allowing more of this to come out (in a controlled fashion) as a great mass of people is already past the fence of whether NASA is a space agency or a grift.
Witsit did an interview with an Info Wars host recently, even AJ made a brief appearence. There's nothing new presented in defense of the globe (the host is defending their side naturally, obviously new to the topic), so Austin had an easy go.

If you accept war is a racket you should understand the constant neccesity for boogie-men. US citizens will never go to war against Russia. Apart from a well-time false flag on the west coast, what would make them go to war against China? Certainly no Clown-in-chief or cross-dressing defsec. Nobody preparing for war targets their own military personel with poison shots or gender ideology.
The percieved risk of war is what is the goal as for a bureaucratic state machine that's all they need to keep plundering the treasury.

It's no coincidence the films portray the Paul Atreidis story to the public - it's a story of a foreigner in a hostile land, whose coming and "powers" were propagandized to the locals by representatives of a nationless sectarian school of thought, entirely comitted to (re)shaping global affairs "for the gewd of aLl🤡" i.e. to their will, somehow pretending they protect mankind from mankind.
"Follow blindly" is the message, hilariously from one conflict to another. End justifies the means sort of thing. The line between freedom fighters and violent aggressors gets blurred right at the end too. Shai-hulud endorsing this obvious conspiracy is another red flag 😅

Aye, and China is also the most successfull experiment for national control, probably due to the sheer extend of democide since the global clique put the commies in power.
Destroying/de-industrializing/de-culturing (propbably not a word 😅) the mostly free west is a deliberate policy to that end as it is more resource consuming to control the populations there compared to China. This is done while pretending the Chinese model is somehow superior, naturally ignoring the fact that the biggest market for Chinese products is the west.

Fair points. I'd argue Kiev would sooner resort to genocide as they have been desperately shelling eastern regions since the 2014 coup, literally killing other ukrainians. This serves as an example to all the other eastern (mostly russian-speaking) regions to be cautious in proclaiming they are against Kiev. Naturally Putin's tanks skewed this risk. The votes are just for show, but if there was genuine resistance in the annexed regions, the west would be all over it and use it in the media too.
There's no good guys in this conflict, only global powers and their local puppets, everybody else is simply a victim of the forced redistribution of land, property and capital destruction. War is hell, but it is also a racket and Putin wasted no time to push through the same dystopian CBDC agenda that is kreeping in west.

You need to study this region more, mate. Whatever the western media is claiming is not the case.
