(also similar to how in texas they had to halve energy supply instead of stop b/c shutting down completely would incur a kickstart/bootstrap cost which would require months)

e.g. the government that is reigning in its mandate of heaven in order to give everyone The Great New Plan of What to Do is also telling everyone Stop Doing Everything Because of COVID no wonder its just spilling directly into the stock market without doing anything effective

all it's doing is proving the capitalists are right. that centralized control always-eventually becomes retarded. the anti-capitalist behavior is instead just making it clear that capitalism is the only arkk there is in this flood.

this makes clear why the btc movement is evangelical in nature as well. if btc is to become Capital, people must believe in it and and take their marching orders from those who own btc. this New World Order is one where everyone is paid in "Divine Equity"

this returns us again to the problem of everyone being paid in equity. when times get tough, capitalist societies tend to hoard their capital instead of releasing it as economic flow. they tend to retreat to their doom bunkers instead of believing in hoomanity

ironically they often preach abundance but also believe in the power of scarcity through divine resources like gold and bitcoin. their belief in abundance is actually the belief in the power of capital, not real faith in the hooman condition

when individuals buy btc, thus they are actually strengthening the philosophy of capitalism by owning a piece of a scarce future. they want to be capitalists themself by owning stuff that "Others" cannot lay claim to.

this sharp distinction between 'my stuff' and 'your stuff' is why: "It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God." holding the idea of possession as a Sacred Value renounces dissolution of self/other boundary
Show this thread -
note that rejecting the idea of possession is just as stupid just as a fully dissolved ego would not know which mouth to feed. the point is to avoid holding it as a Sacred Value, not to be a Rebel with an Oddly Specific Cause

there is moral anxiety here. socialism rejects the divinity of the individual while capitalism ascends the individual to Literal Divinity. (which is degenerate under a framework of Only God as One True Sovereign)

in one there are no gods in the other there are only false gods how can one say which is the lesser evil?
