I don't think you meant it but that's a pretty questionable use of the (I assume RHR inspired) "freak" term of endearment 🙈

"I'm still upset by the election result" which might work if you work for a woke tech company.

Never forget the ones who supported or went along with this madness. 1000s of kids lives have been destroyed by unethical and predatory medical procedures which have mutilated and rendered them infertile. Many before the age they are considered mature enough to drive/smoke/drink/join the military. Children sacrificed to Baal. AOC at the very least went along with that and gave cover to it. The blood of those children is on her hands, now and for eternity. You can't wash away that sin by just updating a profile.

Your friend would probably have been fine but for you doxxing his setup here and incentivising SN autists to scour Twitter for bip39 words. Accounts were probably made at a similar time and have a similar post count. Posts were probably made within a certain time zone. Don't even have a Twitter account so don't know how the search works. Probably manipulated by algos and no API access do despite your best efforts here your friend should still be OK, unless someone is an insider at X or has some kind of API access for some reason.

Philippians 4:11-13 English Standard Version 11 Not that I am speaking of being in need, for I have learned in whatever situation I am to be content. 12 I know how to be brought low, and I know how to abound. In any and every circumstance, I have learned the secret of facing plenty and hunger, abundance and need. 13 I can do all things through him who strengthens me.

Native English speakers get taught at school that alliteration is good English. So often people try to match the first letter of things to make it roll off the tongue and sound better. So I might say "magnificent money" or "dirty dollars" or "lovely lucre" or whatever. Sometimes it can lead to some awkward noun/adjective choices. Since I don't think there are many English majors at SN (thankfully) a little awkward language in the UI is maybe to be expected. Doubt there is a deep state conspiracy to undermine Bitcoin via subliminal psyops of the SN user base (would be funny if there was though)

There's a mid wit in the comments saying we "need Internet on the Blockchain. It's urgent". He's probably 10 years ahead of most normies, and about 10 years away from figuring out there is only one use of Blockchain--which is Bitcoin.

At that point it'll take him another 5 years to understand what is needed is Nostr with Bitcoin/Lightning/ecash if a new decentralized censor resistant and verifiable Internet is going to be rebuilt.

So we are about 15 years away from mid wits catching up never mind your average normie.

I suppose it doesn't matter since mid wits and normies don't lead or build anything, they are simply there to consume. Still, do we need the mid wits to start to discover and consume their content over Nostr sooner rather than later? I wonder when we'll see the last mid wit "wE neeD BanaNaS oN thE blOCkchaiN" in the wild?

"progressivism" is a satanic philosophy. It is the idea that the creature has become God. That we don't need God anymore. That we can engineer a utopia on earth with our own ingenuity. It makes a religion of "science" and "technology". It it favored by mid wits whom our education system selects for and who become the managerial class central planners. Everything must be measured, optimized, planned. It's pure hubris and it's evil and the Bible warns against it for a good reason (Tower of Babel story etc).

I see. Makes sense.

Surely all the patriotic Americans in Biden's cabinet would not stand for this?

Really good stuff imo. With my business hat on got very excited about the story you were building until the last slide. The stuff about fly wheels and reactors got my eyes flashing the proverbial dollar signs but the "decentralized" stuff at the end elicited a doubt that the genie could be captured in the bottle (i.e. where is my lock in? Are people just going to fork this awesome thing and cut me out?). Curious if you got any question / push back about that?

Didn't know Milei had transitioned. Big if true.

Fair points on the Papel infallibility. I don't suppose Francis is going to issue anything of national strategic significance to America "from the chair" anytime soon.

With the SBC, I don't think they have a claim to exclusive truth to quite the same extent. My understanding is their claim is limited to speaking on behalf of the denomination, not for Christendom in totality. So a hypothetical Baptist president who took issue with a doctrinal position of the SBC could choose, for example, to leave the SBC and join some other baptist group, and still have a credible claim to be orthodox while also having confidence in his own individual salvation. The Roman church won't say it clearly these days, but my understanding is that orthodox Roman doctrine is essentially ex ecclesiam nulla salus, with the Roman church as the only "true church".

Also, at least the SBC is American. Someone being a faithful Roman Catholic is, in my mind, similar to someone who has a foreign nationality and a loyalty to a foreign government. Which is also an issue with the Biden administration, I believe, with Israeli-American dual nationals. That's a rabbit hole for another day.

Maybe but the pope is an "ally" of the rainbow people and my understanding of the Roman church is that he claims theologically to be the infallible head and therefore any dissenting views from his are heretical. I think Biden and Francis see eye to eye on most leftist issues including trans "rights" and climate change. Also, I think Roman Catholicism must be incompatible with any ideas of "Christian Nationalism" since, again, by their own theology, their interests and loyalties are inherently internationalist with their head and center in the Vatican. How any professing Roman Catholic is allowed to be president is a mystery to me. In the UK Catholics were prevented from certain positions, including Prime Minister, for this reason. How can Biden lead America when, in theory, he is supposed to accept any Papal decree ex cathedra as binding? Of course, it's a joke as most Roman Catholics don't take their own theology seriously, and most would just assume (correctly, imo) Biden would just ignore any pope who dissented from globohomo consensus. He is of course "Catholic" in name only. I don't want to turn the thread into a sectarian argument between Roman Catholics and protestants and I am sure there are many good, bible believing Roman Catholics, but I have to say I think Biden is very representative of the Magisterium as it currently sits under Pope Francis. To be fair, protestantism has its own issues and leftist protestants are even worse than Roman Catholics when it comes to corrupting the gospel to fit a leftist agenda. (Anyone who wants a wake up call should look up the "sparkle creed" video led by a female "pastor" Lutheran.)

I think the idea is that America was founded as a protestant nation. (At least, the founders were by and large protestant, as were the majority of the population). So then, why is it that we now have a Roman Catholic president? Why is there only one high court judge who is evangelical? What the hell happened?

It's the feeling that America was sort of snatched from protestants and the desire to reset the clock and get power back.

And the fruits of this are plain for all to see: trans kids, STDs running wild, debauchery on TV, drug abuse, alcohol abuse, a nation obsessed with sports, legalized gambling, pot, etc etc.

So a "Christian Nationalist" would be someone who believes America was founded on biblical, evangelical values, and that it would be good for America to get back to that. But I don't think many would actually call themselves "Christian Nationalist"

One of the best covering this kind of topic is Aaron Renn who has a podcast The Aaron Renn show and wrote a book "Negative World" about the place culturally Christians have found themselves in in the US since roughly 2016.

The way forward for Christian relevance is not so clear. I personally think that America has a state religion which is progressive leftism. Curtis Yarvin writes extensively about this. He argues that it is a non theistic Christianity that mutated from Puritanism. I believe that we will see the bible censored in our lifetimes, as the globohomo rainbow religion grows stronger and more bold and as the boomer Christians begin to die off. It probably won't be an outright ban, but rather there will be pressure on Amazon to stop selling the Bible, for example. There will probably also be leftist translations that come out with certain politically incorrect verses "reinterpreted". We have already seen that to some extent with the NIV for example rewriting the bible to be more "gender inclusive".

So for bible believing, evangelical Christians there will increasingly be demands to choose between a pinch of incense to globohomo vs being true to the gospel. There will be increasing social penalties paid for being a faithful Christian. There will be barriers to many jobs, educational facilities, banking, etc. Hence the importance for building out alternative institutions and other means of opting out of the state machinery such as home schooling.

In the sense of me worrying about these things, I think people might brand me a Christian Nationalist. I am not one in the way they think, although I am probably something far worse and far more reactionary from a progressive point of view. I am increasingly thinking a divine rights kind of Monarchy is the best kind of model. I like what Bukele is doing in El sal and my respect for him grew when he spoke about faith and prayer in a recent interview he did. My expressing these kinds of opinions has offended many fellow bitcoiners, actually. They are not woke/progressive but they are die hard libertarians whom I have actually come to think of as essentially leftist.
