      thinking about the problem that land value taxes is trying to solve, bitcoin seems like just another iteration of the mentality that snowballs into massive inequalityhttps://twitter.com/a_yawning_cat/status/1384588027356274692?s=20 …

      yet ironically, the culture that MOST emphasizes and protects property rights becomes the most trusted. the opposite of the native american "land belongs to noone" TRUST unintuitively is THE secret weapon of warhttps://twitter.com/a_yawning_cat/status/1397331481551245315?s=20 …

      thought experiment. ur country is collapsing due to civil unrest. the purples and the pinks at violently at each other’s throats. u have to move ur family wealth out of the country through a foreign intermediary. does the color of the CEO of the foreign intermediary matter to u?

      ever notice how the bitcoin maximalists all have a similar vibe? an anarcho-libertarian "i deserve my hard work!!" kinda feel. they tend to feel likes "dragons". a lot of hoarded wealth already but desiring even more and hyper concerned with protecting ithttps://twitter.com/a_yawning_cat/status/1366267895676764162 …

          however, they are always emphasizing that bitcoin is about FREEDOM. and this is TRUE based on their definition of freedom most however don't understand this bc they are enslaved to money & looking for get rich quick. they equate freedom w equalityhttps://twitter.com/a_yawning_cat/status/1396668707938521088 …

          freedom and equality seem to be opposites. natural freedom is natural (exponential) growth leading to exponential differences. a tree “explodes” upwards in a forest and monopolizes the bulk of light and resources

          if u r following my threads you may be confused as some of them seem pro bitcoin while others like this one seem anti-bitcoin however i don't think it is "good" or "bad". to me, there is a overall macro structure of pareto inequality that is part and parcel of Nature and Life

          the only way to create "equality" (and i define virtuous equality as "feeling equal value in all life", not "sameness of outcome") then is to create "flow" within this macro structure (not destroy it) e.g. everyone takes turn being top 1% (effect most prominent in usa)

          so bitcoin reflects this macro structure in a mathematically "if God designed a better gold" perfect way. more so than land ownership, more so than royal blood, more so than gold and farmland and apple or coca cola stock ownership. this is where it's "bad" and "unequal"

          however because it exists purely in the realm of the divine it is incorruptible by macro level STATE forces which means that failure to generate flow within this macro structure is purely the fault of those who actively choose to be part of the structure.

          there is no "Big Brother" to blame, only hooman greed and fear and its corresponding effects on the Faith that supports the whole network

          and this is ignoring that despite lack of state actors, corporations still can have outsized influence (e.g. miner monopoly) in terms of power, corporations and state can wield similar levels of influence. the only difference is that individuals can EXIT from corporations

          so if u think of all of hoomanity as a giant brain and each individual as a neuron casting votes, bitcoin is a radical injection of EXIT potential that drains the power of VOICE so the problem then boils down to governance EXIT vs VOICE CAT vs DOG The Eternal Conflict
