We have talked about the freedom of choice of the individual and how from a praxological point of view, an individual can choose to be different despite the environment and collective thought. It turns out that I have seen a movie called "Radical" based on real events, about the work done by a Mexican teacher with sixth grade students at a school in Matamoros. In reality it helped them think, but that was not what the system wanted, it only wanted the boys to pass a link exam so that they could continue their studies. One of the teachers reflected in his words the essence of the educational system and in general of any political or economic system:
"If things go well, they pass. If things go badly, they pass. No matter how things go, they always pass"
It is clear how the system views individuals.
One of the children was killed and she had no choice, another girl could not continue her studies because she had to take care of her newborn sister, a task that corresponded to her mother, but she was not given the opportunity to continue. The young Paloma Noyola was able to continue, she had the opportunity and took advantage of it. But they don't always have the opportunity. I wish the powers that be did not take away opportunities from individuals, simply because it cannot be different.

I've got my first p2p payments on SN... check the p2p tag which is different from the usual autowithdraw tag.
I guess that happens when I get zapped by someone who also doesn't use the SN custodial wallet and using some of the non-custodial options...
Neat :)

Yes. I get them every once in a while too. I guess we can get a sense of how the transition is going by monitoring those payments.

Hello stackers, wherever you are. I hope you had a good day today, for me it was satisfactory in learning and conversation. I saw how three other stackers have had situations in their lives like I have had in mine.
I learned a lot from the abundant but simple explanation of how they have included the forks in Bitcoin, depending on whether they are soft or hard, a must-read material for those starting out and a must-use for those of us who in some way want to educate about Bitcoin.
When I think that I'm not going to find any more interesting articles or posts on SN, boom I'm surprised.
I can only thank those who strive to create quality educational content, whatever the sphere, the SN team for the effort they put into making SN a better platform

Most people stop at the second step is the real problem imo. Learning happens naturally if you repeat.
I'd simplify and say the process of learning is: Fail. Repeat.
Normalize recoverable failure.

So I was just at a soccer coaches social and a lady mentions Bitcoin just had a big dip and she mentioned she sold and how she gets into a bunch of ICO’s. I go on to ask questions about the value of her shitcoins and of course she just sells them after ICO’s. The guy that runs the league immigrated from Trinidad and Tobago and I go on to discuss the globalization and decentralization of Bitcoin. Also I mentioned the human rights foundation grants and renewal energy use cases.
So…. They want me to come back now for more orange pilling!

Sometimes, there is so much going on in my head that it feels like exploding and writing is a way to release some pressure but when I sit down to write, my head is suddenly empty or I can't understand my own thoughts as if they are in a different language.
So I actually believe there is always a lot going on in our heads but we don't always listen. It's like a frequency, we just don't know how to tune in on purpose.

it works better if you actually write it down with a pen:)
reply
I can’t hand write fast enough. Typing is easier to keep up with
reply
But one of the good things about writing with a pen is you can draw things at the same time 😂✌🏽 and you also realize how auto typing or everything digitalize affects writing, I bet most people barely touch pen these days.
reply
True, being able to draw is really nice. Anything beyond typing suffers when not writing by hand.

Coup D’état

Coup D’état is French for “stroke of state” and means a sudden, violent and “unlawful” seizure of power from government, more commonly known as a coup.
Many people believe they have to overthrow government, and have even attempted to do so, often resulting in death, a failed attempt and then imprisonment for life, or even execution.
However a “government” is just a corporation with no contract with the individual private natural person, so by carrying out a coup would be considered an “unlawful” act against the shareholders of said corporation.
Moreover if you’ve accepted the title citizen or even subject, then it is an act of war, which will be met with violence.
When you actually realise how the system works, you’ll see there’s no need for a coup, you just walk away from the game.

is just a way of saying to piss off those gov agents reading my posts... here I make it even simpler for them to understand https://m.stacker.news/49729 They understand only their language (aka launder money). For me "launder money" it doesn't make sense. My own money cannot be laundered.
