I really like this one. You can make the difference by doing these things.
Reject passivity. I think in modern times it is easy to just be in neutral and there are forces at play to move us to being passive. Forces like corporations and governments. People that want us to be dependent on them. Not that our goal should be to never need anyone or anything. But our goal should be to be responsible and strong. As each person moves toward strength and sovereignty, collectively the power machines are weakened. Honestly, this has little to do with politics but politics are at play fighting this movement to taking ownership and responsibility over one's self.

Yes, yes. I totally agree. The fiat system makes fools and unintelligent of us as human beings. We've become so trapped in the system such that one could not even think about what's good for him as an individual. Truly, truly, Bitcoin is a freedom money. Without bitcoin in this world, we are nothing but slaves in the hands of the money printers. Fiat money is immoral. It is only valued because governments are forcing their citizens to use it. They threaten you with prison terms and even death. They print more of it at their own will to steal from everyone else. But bitcoin is different. It makes us become truly humans. It is valued by the free market. The high volatility of bitcoin is not inherent to it but rather it is the reflection of our attitude in utilizing fiat currencies, through coercion.

You remembered me this quote:
Nobody makes a greater mistake than he who does nothing because he could do only a little.

I completely agree with your perspective. In a world where convenience and dependency are often encouraged, it’s crucial to remain vigilant and take action, even if it seems small or unimportant.

It starts in our minds. But it needs to be done by our bodies. Human action is powerful.
