Just as the title says. I orange pilled my dad last spring and he slowly started his journey of learning about Bitcoin. It wasn't long before he was sending me Bitcoin podcasts and memes I have seen a million times, but it was really great watching him fall deeper and deeper down the rabbit hole. However, I recently opened a meme he texted me from the Orange Mart account, which is all about fun competitive gaming. I saw his name in a reply to the post, and when I clicked on his profile and looked at it, all his posts were about pwning noobs with headshots and stealing their Bitcoin in-game.
He's constantly posting screenshots of his victories with captions like "get rekt loser" and "not your keys, not your coins." He even started trash-talking other players, calling them out for being weak and challenging them to duels.
What do I do now? Do I tell my mom he's become a hardcore gamer who's obsessed with headshots and Bitcoin? Do I tell him I saw his posts? I dread to check his nostr. HELP!
I think I already read this post a few days ago, is it just a copy paste?

Is Rust fun? I havenโ€™t played it but now wondering if itโ€™s on Steam and playable through Steamdeck. ๐Ÿค”
reply
Rust is fun! We've launched a new server called Mandarin, designed specifically for players who want to learn and enjoy the game without the pressure of player-versus-player combat. This PvE (Player vs Environment) server is the perfect place to hone your survival skills and get comfortable before diving into the competitive action on our Orange server. We hope you'll join us and experience a more relaxed way to enjoy Rust! Edit: We're not 100% sure if you can play from a steam deck but it is possible to play from most devices using GeForce Now cloud gaming.

------ POTENTIAL BS ACCOUNT ALERT ------

There was a post saying someone orange pilled his dad and then his dad was making uncomfortable advances towards female bitcoiners.
Notice the wording "deeper and deeper into the rabbit hole" (#637737):
I think he's trying to spam that Orange Mart link

We donated 10,000 sats to the Bitcoin territory to post that joke from the anon account. We felt it was a necessary touch to help the joke land and thought it would be nice to tip the territory.
reply
Oh crap I absolutely missed the joke. To be fair I'm almost 40 and a dad so I am allowed to be internet-stupid.
Was there some internet context that we had to know about?
