Many people here view the world through bitcoin eyes. This is good because bitcoin at its core includes economics, incentives, and human nature. I would say that we all could use more lenses to look through though.
Do NOT make the mistake of thinking because a lens is wrong that it is useless. Lets say you have a friend that LOVES Trump. Believes everything he says and thinks he will fix the US. Drain the swamp. Whatever. It might be tempting to discount their view. I would suggest there is value in understanding where it comes from and how it both aligns with other lenses as well as where it is flawed.
The world is complex and most of the people around us are being controlled by lenses that they were given at an early age. Most people are not wired to question these lenses. This is why what is obviously false to you might be something they are completely blind to. Understanding this can help you relate and understand more people. I would argue this is severely lacking in our society.
Much is being gained by keeping people in the dark.
