Last Notes npub178ysc2ceq24y497lna3w08l70wh6dzd2me33l52fl69mj0zwd36sgxrtwg snotklap So spamming is “dumb” when it serves no purpose, but becomes righteous the moment it gives your resentment an outlet. npub178ysc2ceq24y497lna3w08l70wh6dzd2me33l52fl69mj0zwd36sgxrtwg snotklap Now that NVK left the internet, you are the biggest narcissist around. npub178ysc2ceq24y497lna3w08l70wh6dzd2me33l52fl69mj0zwd36sgxrtwg snotklap One can smell his narcissism a mile away, so no way he will be able to hide behind a new npub for long. npub178ysc2ceq24y497lna3w08l70wh6dzd2me33l52fl69mj0zwd36sgxrtwg snotklap The micro Python interpreter used the wrong random number generator function because they had the same name, so instead of using the coldcard function, it used the built-in micro Python one that wasn't secure. npub178ysc2ceq24y497lna3w08l70wh6dzd2me33l52fl69mj0zwd36sgxrtwg snotklap Yes, they fear death, uncertainty and responsibility. To overcome these fears, they create an afterlife where they can live forever and a daddy in the sky to guide them, provide authority and offer reassurance. npub178ysc2ceq24y497lna3w08l70wh6dzd2me33l52fl69mj0zwd36sgxrtwg snotklap A pessimist is an optimist in full possession of the facts. - Arthur Schopenhauer npub178ysc2ceq24y497lna3w08l70wh6dzd2me33l52fl69mj0zwd36sgxrtwg snotklap Yes. As Spinoza says: "If men were able to exercise complete control over all their circumstances, or if continuous good fortune were always their lot, they would never be prey to superstition." npub178ysc2ceq24y497lna3w08l70wh6dzd2me33l52fl69mj0zwd36sgxrtwg snotklap "This is going to be my last post about BIP-110." npub178ysc2ceq24y497lna3w08l70wh6dzd2me33l52fl69mj0zwd36sgxrtwg snotklap You have become powerless and resentful, so you seek villains to blame: Core developers, the CIA, BIP-110 supporters, corrupt actors everywhere. You care less about Bitcoin and more about the emotional satisfaction of having someone to blame and to be proven right. What other solutions do you have besides promising to return and mock BIP-110 supporters? Nowhere do you say what should be built, improved, or created. Your entire mindset is reactive and weak. npub178ysc2ceq24y497lna3w08l70wh6dzd2me33l52fl69mj0zwd36sgxrtwg snotklap The “Conatus”, derived from the Latin word for “survival drive”, is constantly seeking the next thing to keep you running along on the hamster wheel of life. npub178ysc2ceq24y497lna3w08l70wh6dzd2me33l52fl69mj0zwd36sgxrtwg snotklap "You have your way. I have my way. As for the right way, the correct way, and the only way, it does not exist." - Nietzsche npub178ysc2ceq24y497lna3w08l70wh6dzd2me33l52fl69mj0zwd36sgxrtwg snotklap I don't think you need them, and if you wanted them for "longevity" then no, they will not prevent death... that's the purpose of life, so don't try and fight it. npub178ysc2ceq24y497lna3w08l70wh6dzd2me33l52fl69mj0zwd36sgxrtwg snotklap https://blossom.primal.net/34412ac20a253a772d167c32df96cbb1a32e873489fd048ab34553845475dd2c.png npub178ysc2ceq24y497lna3w08l70wh6dzd2me33l52fl69mj0zwd36sgxrtwg snotklap Liar npub178ysc2ceq24y497lna3w08l70wh6dzd2me33l52fl69mj0zwd36sgxrtwg snotklap My point: Argument: "Most people won't adopt it, therefore don't support it." Why should the anticipated opinion of the majority determine my judgment? If you believe BIP-110 is beneficial for Bitcoin, then its current popularity is a separate question from its merit. Allowing your convictions to be determined by expected social acceptance is precisely how herd morality operates. Yes, the numbers are against us. So what? If we believe this is the right direction, we should fight for it and discover whether the resistance can be overcome. The possibility of failure is not itself an argument against action. At some point: - Bitcoin itself was a tiny minority. - The blocksize wars began with minorities on both sides. - Every major philosophical, political, religious, or scientific shift started with people who lacked majority support. If the standard is: "Do not pursue anything unless a majority already supports it," then no new majority can ever emerge. The argument becomes circular: You need majority support before you may seek majority support. Support it because you judge it to be right, not because you expect it to win. npub178ysc2ceq24y497lna3w08l70wh6dzd2me33l52fl69mj0zwd36sgxrtwg snotklap You miss my point npub178ysc2ceq24y497lna3w08l70wh6dzd2me33l52fl69mj0zwd36sgxrtwg snotklap Essentially, your argument boils down to this: "There isn't enough support, therefore it won't happen, therefore supporting it is irrational." That shifts the discussion from technical merit to social conformity. Your underlying message feels less like: "Here's why BIP-110 is technically incorrect." and more like: "The majority won't follow you, therefore you should stop." That's very close to herd-morality thinking because truth becomes subordinate to social consensus. You're positioning yourself as the spokesperson for "reality" itself: "I don't know how you can be so stupid as not to see reality" You frame reality as: Majority = legitimacy Minority = delusion Success = correctness Failure = proof of being wrong You view disagreement as evidence of irrationality rather than a difference in analysis. This is a common social dominance tactic. You focus on anticipating where the crowd will be rather than evaluating the proposal itself. Your arguments are heavily centered on social adoption, credibility, majority support, and conformity to perceived reality. Even if BIP-110 ultimately fails, that doesn't automatically mean the attempt was irrational, dishonest, or technically unsound. Movements fail all the time for political reasons. npub178ysc2ceq24y497lna3w08l70wh6dzd2me33l52fl69mj0zwd36sgxrtwg snotklap Running Bip-110 and saving this message. npub178ysc2ceq24y497lna3w08l70wh6dzd2me33l52fl69mj0zwd36sgxrtwg snotklap They don't think, period. npub178ysc2ceq24y497lna3w08l70wh6dzd2me33l52fl69mj0zwd36sgxrtwg snotklap “I vide coded my own wallet” is the new “I lost it in a boating accident”. npub178ysc2ceq24y497lna3w08l70wh6dzd2me33l52fl69mj0zwd36sgxrtwg snotklap Be careful.

Think things through yourself. npub178ysc2ceq24y497lna3w08l70wh6dzd2me33l52fl69mj0zwd36sgxrtwg snotklap You’ll be the first they execute when their government issues the order. npub178ysc2ceq24y497lna3w08l70wh6dzd2me33l52fl69mj0zwd36sgxrtwg snotklap Statism and Scientism are the dominant religions of our era. npub178ysc2ceq24y497lna3w08l70wh6dzd2me33l52fl69mj0zwd36sgxrtwg snotklap Of course he would be, he’s a shitcoiner himself. npub178ysc2ceq24y497lna3w08l70wh6dzd2me33l52fl69mj0zwd36sgxrtwg snotklap Henry Miller said that if he ever came face-to-face with God, he would spit in his face.

Nobody here uses the "who will build the roads" argument to defend the state, but they are all still fucking statist slaves. https://blossom.primal.net/ca95ab70330c969574c4823e226adde024c531201235467c074fb580c625cefb.jpg npub178ysc2ceq24y497lna3w08l70wh6dzd2me33l52fl69mj0zwd36sgxrtwg snotklap That's what she gets for eating their father and believing that she's a strong, independent woman capable of raising the kids as a single mom. npub178ysc2ceq24y497lna3w08l70wh6dzd2me33l52fl69mj0zwd36sgxrtwg snotklap In loneliness, the lonely one eats himself; in a crowd, the many eat him. Now choose. Friedrich Nietzsche npub178ysc2ceq24y497lna3w08l70wh6dzd2me33l52fl69mj0zwd36sgxrtwg snotklap I’m not sure if the shooting of Charlie Kirk was a psyop or not, but if it was, it certainly worked on many of you. It’s important to think using reason instead of emotion. npub178ysc2ceq24y497lna3w08l70wh6dzd2me33l52fl69mj0zwd36sgxrtwg snotklap That first paragraph is poison.

Don’t let the “conatus” or survival drive manipulate you or control your actions. npub178ysc2ceq24y497lna3w08l70wh6dzd2me33l52fl69mj0zwd36sgxrtwg snotklap Haha, no, I wasn’t aware of the beer.

As you said, "mutually agreed rules...", anything else I'll ignore or break when I feel like it. npub178ysc2ceq24y497lna3w08l70wh6dzd2me33l52fl69mj0zwd36sgxrtwg snotklap The only rules I care about are my own; fuck everyone else's. npub178ysc2ceq24y497lna3w08l70wh6dzd2me33l52fl69mj0zwd36sgxrtwg snotklap The belief that you are "the one" is the oldest trick of life.

This quest for first causes mirrors political compliance: arguing over who the ruler should be rather than rejecting the need for rule itself. npub178ysc2ceq24y497lna3w08l70wh6dzd2me33l52fl69mj0zwd36sgxrtwg snotklap I haven’t watched television or listened to the radio while driving since 2020. As a result, I’m better informed than anyone around me who still wastes their time with mind-numbing media. In 2021, I gave away the big TV I had, and the only remaining TV in my bedroom is for the CCTV cameras. npub178ysc2ceq24y497lna3w08l70wh6dzd2me33l52fl69mj0zwd36sgxrtwg snotklap RFK Jr. is cancelling mRNA because it wasn't deadly enough, it will be replaced by something "more highly effective". npub178ysc2ceq24y497lna3w08l70wh6dzd2me33l52fl69mj0zwd36sgxrtwg snotklap Positivity is an illusion that causes psychological suffering.

You can’t, because you’re projecting your morality onto nature. This reminds me of this quote by Nietzsche: "The effeminate and cowardly term 'Nature' applied by the nature enthusiasts (who are devoid of any sense of the cruel, implacable, and cynical elements in even the 'most beautiful' aspects of nature) is a sort of attempt to glean from nature Christian morality's notion of what is 'humane'" npub178ysc2ceq24y497lna3w08l70wh6dzd2me33l52fl69mj0zwd36sgxrtwg snotklap This part is a retreat into metaphysics disguised as science: "We must assume behind this force the existence of a conscious and intelligent mind." Planck speaks of science then makes an assumption because he still craves a cosmic Father.... a cowardly relapse into the metaphysical need for meaning. npub178ysc2ceq24y497lna3w08l70wh6dzd2me33l52fl69mj0zwd36sgxrtwg snotklap I don't care for their laws, authority, morality, or opinions either. ;-) npub178ysc2ceq24y497lna3w08l70wh6dzd2me33l52fl69mj0zwd36sgxrtwg snotklap Fuck no npub178ysc2ceq24y497lna3w08l70wh6dzd2me33l52fl69mj0zwd36sgxrtwg snotklap The people who purchase this TV will likely use it for pornography. npub178ysc2ceq24y497lna3w08l70wh6dzd2me33l52fl69mj0zwd36sgxrtwg snotklap Congratulations npub178ysc2ceq24y497lna3w08l70wh6dzd2me33l52fl69mj0zwd36sgxrtwg snotklap 🤘 npub178ysc2ceq24y497lna3w08l70wh6dzd2me33l52fl69mj0zwd36sgxrtwg snotklap Remember when I mentioned that conservatives and progressives are similar? Progressives are leading the way, while conservatives are closely following. As things turned out, this is also the case with pedophilia. #nevent1q…srlt npub178ysc2ceq24y497lna3w08l70wh6dzd2me33l52fl69mj0zwd36sgxrtwg snotklap Classic. Nostalgia mixed with disillusionment. When one is young, one sees the world not as it is, but through the morality of one's time. Later, when the scales fall, one sees the abyss... and the truth behind all masks. People aren’t more divided... they're just more exposed. npub178ysc2ceq24y497lna3w08l70wh6dzd2me33l52fl69mj0zwd36sgxrtwg snotklap A young woman’s primary influence in the world, according to nature, comes through youth and beauty.... used, often unconsciously, to secure protection, status, or reproduction. As that influence fades, older women often try to reclaim a sense of importance by turning toward social control, gossip, and moralizing. npub178ysc2ceq24y497lna3w08l70wh6dzd2me33l52fl69mj0zwd36sgxrtwg snotklap You are a statist cuck! npub178ysc2ceq24y497lna3w08l70wh6dzd2me33l52fl69mj0zwd36sgxrtwg snotklap The only reason people know about Walker is because he is married to someone more interesting.

Pride in one’s ancestors is the consolation of those who have nothing to show for themselves. And ridicule aimed at the conquered... especially when it masks the cowardice of modern comfort... is the clearest sign of a slave’s soul wearing the mask of a master. npub178ysc2ceq24y497lna3w08l70wh6dzd2me33l52fl69mj0zwd36sgxrtwg snotklap The UK is a nanny state... a decadent society trying to protect the weak from life’s realities.

Plants rearrange soil, water, and sunlight into leaves, fruit, and wood. Animals tear each other apart to rearrange flesh into new flesh. The planet constantly transforms matter from one form to another, molecule by molecule, and converts energy from one state to the next. What it cannot rearrange by itself, it accomplishes through living creatures: bees make honey, silkworms spin silk, oysters form pearls, and humans produce plastic. npub178ysc2ceq24y497lna3w08l70wh6dzd2me33l52fl69mj0zwd36sgxrtwg snotklap Politics exists because groups of parasitic collectivists demand what they have not earned.

I’m more interested in questioning systems, not adapting to them. His focus on discipline and tradition feels more like maintaining the status quo than challenging it. npub178ysc2ceq24y497lna3w08l70wh6dzd2me33l52fl69mj0zwd36sgxrtwg snotklap Christianity, Judaism, and similar religions are branches of the same sick tree... a tree rooted in resentment, guilt, moral inversion, repression, obedience, afterlife fantasies, and hatred for the strong, joyful, and instinctual. They glorify weakness, humility, suffering, and submission... not life, but escape from it. npub178ysc2ceq24y497lna3w08l70wh6dzd2me33l52fl69mj0zwd36sgxrtwg snotklap I don’t like Peterson. He teaches the nobility of suffering, obedience to order, and submission to tradition... like a modern-day ascetic priest, dressed in Jungian symbolism and drunk on scientism. He speaks endlessly, but says very little. npub178ysc2ceq24y497lna3w08l70wh6dzd2me33l52fl69mj0zwd36sgxrtwg snotklap Yes, I’ll leave you with this. You might find it interesting: The idea of free will was born out of religious necessity. Early religious institutions needed a framework to justify moral responsibility, sin, and punishment. If people were truly free to choose good or evil, then it made sense to blame, punish, and condemn those who disobeyed divine law. Without free will, hell makes no sense... how do you punish someone for doing what they were always going to do? So the doctrine of free will became a tool of control: - It made people feel guilty for natural desires. - It justified obedience and submission. - It gave priests and rulers moral high ground. Even after the fall of religion, this belief lingered in secular culture because it flatters the ego. It says: “You are in control. You are responsible. You are the captain of your soul.” It feels empowering... but it’s a myth inherited from a religious system built to exploit guilt. npub178ysc2ceq24y497lna3w08l70wh6dzd2me33l52fl69mj0zwd36sgxrtwg snotklap Not necessarily. Conformity and nonconformity are both driven by instinct... just different instincts. For some, safety and belonging dominate. For others, truth, rebellion, or distrust of authority take over. One person fears exclusion, another fears submission. Both responses are conditioned. Neither requires free will. Nonconformity feels like a choice... but it’s often just the result of different wiring, different wounds, different causes. The desire to break from the crowd isn’t proof of freedom... it’s proof that your internal compass points somewhere else, and you didn’t install that compass yourself. npub178ysc2ceq24y497lna3w08l70wh6dzd2me33l52fl69mj0zwd36sgxrtwg snotklap You’re assuming rebellion = freedom. But even rebellion has its roots. Some are conditioned to obey. Others are conditioned to question. The drive to stand apart, to stack sats, to seek truth anonymously... it too has causes: temperament, upbringing, trauma, books, chance, even brain chemistry. You didn’t choose your nature. You didn’t choose your environment. You didn’t choose to become the kind of person who questions. The urge to break free is just another instinct. So yes, I go against the herd. But not because I’m “free.” My behavior and thinking were shaped by childhood trauma caused by religion, control and narcissism. People like Larken Rose, Nietzsche, Schopenhauer, Martin Butler, and others shaped my path. I didn’t choose that path freely. I was thrown onto it. npub178ysc2ceq24y497lna3w08l70wh6dzd2me33l52fl69mj0zwd36sgxrtwg snotklap If free will were real, we’d expect wild, unpredictable divergence. But what do we see? Masses behaving the same, generation after generation... voting for the same hollow promises, defending the same dying systems, living the same scripts and calling it tradition. They don’t choose freely... they inherit patterns. They mimic, conform, repeat and call it culture. A few break the mold, yes... but not because they are “free.” Even rebellion has its causes. So ironically, the sameness of the crowd is not proof against determinism... it’s evidence for it. npub178ysc2ceq24y497lna3w08l70wh6dzd2me33l52fl69mj0zwd36sgxrtwg snotklap When you say you’re choosing, you’re simply enacting the result of countless prior causes... your biology, your environment, your past experiences, your chemistry. You are not the captain of the ship... you are merely a passenger on the voyage. You think you’ve acted against instinct? You’ve only obeyed a deeper one. npub178ysc2ceq24y497lna3w08l70wh6dzd2me33l52fl69mj0zwd36sgxrtwg snotklap And worst of all? We don’t even have free will. What we call “choice” is just instinct in disguise. npub178ysc2ceq24y497lna3w08l70wh6dzd2me33l52fl69mj0zwd36sgxrtwg snotklap The fact that humans now kill each other more than nature kills us directly doesn’t prove we’ve escaped it. It proves that nature now uses us to do its killing. Nature still rules us... from within. We haven’t escaped the law of the jungle. We’ve just moved the jungle inside the city walls. As Werner Herzog said, “nature is a harmony of overwhelming and collective murder.” And we are part of that symphony. Human violence is not a failure of nature, but a function of it... nature doesn’t care who dies, only that something dies. https://youtu.be/zLZYW9bF50A npub178ysc2ceq24y497lna3w08l70wh6dzd2me33l52fl69mj0zwd36sgxrtwg snotklap We haven’t conquered nature... it still pulls every string. We eat, we fight, we procreate, we age, we die... just like any animal. We still obey hunger, sex, fear, and death. A heatwave kills thousands. A tremor topples buildings. A flood submerges cities. A drought starves millions. A hurricane flattens coastal towns. And no matter how rich, powerful, or intelligent... we all rot, wrinkle, and die. We are not a kingdom within a kingdom. We are not above nature... we are of it, ruled by it, and returned to it. Nature rules us by instinct... from within, and through every breath, hunger, wound, and urge. npub178ysc2ceq24y497lna3w08l70wh6dzd2me33l52fl69mj0zwd36sgxrtwg snotklap No, that's one of modern man’s most arrogant and delusional beliefs. npub178ysc2ceq24y497lna3w08l70wh6dzd2me33l52fl69mj0zwd36sgxrtwg snotklap Correct. Only free spirits exist... for now. They are the questioners, the doubters, the ones who step outside the herd. But the Übermensch, the one who creates new values rather than merely rejecting old ones... he has not yet arrived. Yes, many of our values passed through religion... but that doesn’t mean they belong to it. I don't deny the past, I just refuse to be owned by it. You're right if you want people to defend Bitcoin’s 21M cap for centuries, you need more than math... you need myth. The problem is if future Bitcoiners defend the cap not because they understand it, but because it’s sacred, we haven’t evolved... we’ve replaced one priesthood with another. npub178ysc2ceq24y497lna3w08l70wh6dzd2me33l52fl69mj0zwd36sgxrtwg snotklap Well said. Like house cats, they’re not truly domesticated by force, but by comfort. They could stand on their own, but they prefer the warmth of the cage. npub178ysc2ceq24y497lna3w08l70wh6dzd2me33l52fl69mj0zwd36sgxrtwg snotklap Yes, most people are not strong enough to create their own values. They lack the inner strength, independence, and creative spirit needed to face the abyss of existence without inherited beliefs. For them, religion (and later, ideologies) provides ready-made meaning, rules, and morality. Most are incapable of bearing the burden of freedom. They need the illusion of moral certainty handed down from authority. npub178ysc2ceq24y497lna3w08l70wh6dzd2me33l52fl69mj0zwd36sgxrtwg snotklap Yes, religion is moral outsourcing, but it’s not just outsourcing. It’s giving up responsibility for your own soul. Instead of thinking for themselves, people hand their conscience to a higher power and say, "Tell me what’s good. Tell me what’s evil. Just don’t make me decide." They don’t become moral... they become obedient. And the worst part? They call this obedience virtue. npub178ysc2ceq24y497lna3w08l70wh6dzd2me33l52fl69mj0zwd36sgxrtwg snotklap Absolutely, that's true. npub178ysc2ceq24y497lna3w08l70wh6dzd2me33l52fl69mj0zwd36sgxrtwg snotklap Trump doesn’t have deaths yet, but he needs them to rouse the American patriotic types into war. It’s possible that a “terrorist” attack, an assault on a military base, a warship, or any other Operation Northwoods-style false flag operation could be orchestrated to garner support from the masses. npub178ysc2ceq24y497lna3w08l70wh6dzd2me33l52fl69mj0zwd36sgxrtwg snotklap Netanyahu and Trump both rely on the deaths of their respective citizens to gain support for a large-scale war. I wouldn’t be surprised if they decided to make the Iron Dome less effective and potentially going to target a few Americans in the near future. npub178ysc2ceq24y497lna3w08l70wh6dzd2me33l52fl69mj0zwd36sgxrtwg snotklap I see it differently. The Matrix isn’t just the state... it’s our perception of reality itself. It’s not some external force controlling us, but rather the internal framework through which we interpret the world. That said, external forces... like the state, media, culture... can absolutely influence how that framework is built. But the Matrix is not out there... it’s in here. npub178ysc2ceq24y497lna3w08l70wh6dzd2me33l52fl69mj0zwd36sgxrtwg snotklap Yes, glyphosate poisons the crops, and beer isn’t what it used to be. But that’s not why people drink less. It’s not about health. It’s not about avoiding worse hangovers. Most would welcome more brain damage... if it helped them escape the pain of facing reality. But they no longer drink to forget. They no longer need to. Narcotics, algorithms, infinite scrolling are more precise, more effective, more sterile tools for numbing the abyss.
