The wildest part of being a Bitcoiner is the slow horror of realizing you were right about everything and nobody is going to thank you for it. They're going to be mad at you. They're going to be mad at you specifically.

I refuse to have my store of value and unit of account be centralized and controlled by pedophiles with a money counterfeiter/printer. Bitcoin saved me from a very dark realization well over a decade ago. I’ll hold it to zero l before surrendering to these sick fucks.

Bret Weinstein Raises Alarming Questions About Vaccine Adjuvants and Immune System Risks Dr. Bret Weinstein, evolutionary biologist and outspoken thinker, recently shared a provocative perspective on the use of adjuvants in vaccines, questioning their safety and broader implications for public health. In a world where inflammation is increasingly recognized as a driver of chronic disease, Weinstein argues that the deliberate use of adjuvants—substances like aluminum designed to hyperactivate the immune system—raises serious concerns that demand scrutiny. “When I first learned what an adjuvant was, I was stunned,” Weinstein said. “We’re using a trick to whip the immune system into overdrive just to make vaccines work. My immediate thought was: How could this possibly be safe? We’re inciting inflammation—nonspecifically—knowing full well that inflammation is the bad guy in so many health contexts. It’s like setting a controlled fire in a forest and hoping it doesn’t spread.” Weinstein’s critique centers on aluminum, the most commonly used adjuvant in vaccines. Aluminum is added to vaccines to provoke a stronger immune response to antigens that might otherwise be ignored by the body. But this deliberate immune provocation, Weinstein warns, comes with risks that are poorly understood and rarely discussed. “If you’re injecting aluminum to hyperactivate someone’s immune system, you’re rolling the dice on what else that system might start reacting to,” he said. “What’s stopping it from targeting harmless substances—like pollen, peanuts, or ragweed—and triggering lifelong allergies or autoimmune conditions?” The lack of clear guidance for patients receiving vaccines with adjuvants is a particular point of concern for Weinstein. “If we’re going to use a substance as potent as aluminum, there should be a detailed protocol,” he insisted. “Instructions like: Avoid certain foods for two weeks. Don’t get this shot during allergy season. Monitor for signs of immune dysregulation. Something! Yet, we hand out these shots like candy, with no cautionary roadmap to minimize the risk of the immune system going haywire.” Weinstein’s questions strike at the heart of a growing public health puzzle: the dramatic rise in allergies and autoimmune disorders. Could the nonspecific immune activation caused by adjuvants be a missing piece in this mystery? “We’re scratching our heads over why allergies are skyrocketing, yet we’re systematically provoking the immune system in ways that could plausibly misfire,” he said. “It’s not a conspiracy—it’s a failure to ask obvious questions.” Calling for greater transparency and research, Weinstein urges the scientific community to confront these issues head-on. “We need to study the long-term effects of adjuvants rigorously,” he said. “If we’re going to play with the immune system’s fire, we’d better understand how to keep it from burning the house down.”

This “AI designed individualized MRNA vaccine” scheme is fascinating. It’s as if there was a script and everyone was supposed to have been enamored with MRNA after covid and thus excited and enthusiastic to embrace this next step. But of course that’s not what happened, and they just kept going with the same script anyway.

Every bitcoiner has experienced years of ridicule and insults for believing in bitcoin. When bitcoin hits new all time highs, it is tempting to remember everyone who said something stupid to you and go back and rub it in their face. But you remember that gloating is not nice, and that it is wrong to take joy in the misery of others. And you also fail to remember most of the inconsequential and utterly forgettable nocoiner losers and you can't be bothered to look them up. But this is bitcoin, and bitcoin is different, so I suggest you not let manners or laziness get in the way! Do not resist the urge to point out to the nocoiners they made a huge and very expensive mistake! They truly messed up and could have changed their life to the better if they got into bitcoin. And this was very obvious to anyone who would take the time to see it, but they chose to be smartasses and make stupid jokes instead, and now they're enjoying the consequences. It's important to point out the consequences of their stupidity to them, because most fiaters are incapable of understanding things unless repeatedly told to them by someone in a position of authority. People who say stupid things about bitcoin are not just making their own pathetic selves poorer; they are also impoverishing all the people who have the misfortune of listening to them. And they are impoverishing the whole world by delaying bitcoin adoption and allowing fiat inflationary debt slavery to continue, with all the poverty and mass murder it creates. Bitcoin needs to be rubbed in the haters' faces relentlessly until they stop saying stupid nonsense about it, or until they lose all credibility and audience. No matter how bad gloating is, fiat money is worse. Manners can wait until after fiat is dead. So get out there and make a nocoiner cry today, because they should be crying! Their stupid shitcoin has never been more pathetic or less valuable than it is today, and the sooner they cry about it, the sooner we can be done with it.

Actual marriage (purpose of having children, no divorce possible, wife must submit to husband, adultery a crime, etc) is illegal nowadays, and the sham civil replacement is a bad deal. Fornication and masturbation have also been normalized, so there's basically nothing to gain.

We need a #Bitcoin Bill of Rights. For instance: I. Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of peer-to-peer electronic cash, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof. II. Well generated private keys, well instantiated validating nodes, and well generated proof-of-work, being necessary to the security of a free economy, the right of the people to keep and bear math, shall not be infringed. III. No Federal agent shall, in time of peace be quartered in any wallet or account, without the consent of the owner, nor in time of war, but in a manner to be prescribed by law. IV. The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, computers, and keys, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated. V. No person shall be compelled in any criminal case to reveal his own private keys, nor be deprived of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor shall private property be taken for public use, without just compensation.

"Everyone seems to be overreacting" "Seems"?! Are they overreacting or is the reaction completely justified, because worst things are coming? “…knowingly marketing the service to criminals and flaunting that fact” Lulz on Twitter is not “marketing to criminals”. Canadians don’t have the First Amendment speech protections that Americans have, so this point may be lost on them. Violation of speech rights seems “clear cut” and a justifiable pretext for arrest to Canadians, but to Americans, it’s a serious affront and threat. Straw man arguments are not legal arguments or legal analysis either. It’s not in question that Samourai are being accused of running an MSB; it's right there in the FBI document in black and white. Why imply that the “may be” accused of such a thing when that’s the exact case?” “It does not seem that that is that fight”. TO YOU. The FBI in fact DOES post public service announcements and it is therefore not unprecedented for them to warn the public. However as in their, “Think Before you Post” PSA, targeting Americans, who have a right to free speech, warning people not to use services that don’t KYC is overreach. Because Americans have rights, no one can threaten them to not exercise their rights. This has nothing to do with speech that is already illegal, obviously. “This is nothing new, and self-custody is not being criminalized.” Those paying attention know the EU is legislating to criminalize exactly this, with its proposed “Unhosted Wallet” rules. It’s not a stretch that the 5 Eyes or similar are coordinating in secret to make Bitcoin tools un private…or…is that a “Conspiracy Theory”? (quora.com/Did-the-CIA-invent…) “In my view, their exit from the US app stores is a complete overreaction.” If their lawyer told them to do this that is 100% their affair. You are not a lawyer and are not their lawyer, and you’re not liable for what they do either; remember, they’re French / EU Citizens and have no guaranteed rights or protections. In any case, them leaving USA means more users for other wallets in the USA right? Hope your tool can import a Phoenix generated seed ay? “But if you're not breaking the law, you have nothing to worry about.” Only the most spectacularly naïve believe this flabbergasting statement. History is littered with rights abuses, many of them perfectly legal. Bitcoin was written because its author was worried about the perfectly legal operation of the Federal Reserve fiat money system. Satoshi was very worried about fiat money. YIKES. “Nothing to hide, nothing to fear”? Honestly how can anyone make an argument like this in public? (google.com/search?q=nothing …) The shutdown of Samourai and Torrent Cash is very worrying to anyone who can think, and concern is a perfectly normal and rational response to clear threats. “Could "they" come after wallets, developers, mixers, nodes, LSPs, sidechains, eCash, VPNs, encryption, etc? It's totally possible” Once again, a totally naïve position to take. First of all calling the FBI and other 3 letter agencies “they” in quotes is a passive aggressive way of calling people with totally valid and legitimate concerns “Conspiracy Theorists”. It is well known by all serious people that mixers (software tools) are already under attack (Tornado Cash google.com/search?source=ig&…) and by extension nodes “they” don’t want to see anyone running, and that LSPs, if categorised as MSBs, would come under attack next. Sidechan services and tools providers will almost certainly come under attack next as entities issuing “Securities” as Etherium now is from the SEC (google.com/search?source=ig&…). In India VPNs are regulated, and how any Bitcoiner can not know about the 1990s "Crypto Wars" and the very recent calls for back doors in encryption being made law is staggering (google.com/search?source=ig&…). Given all of these plain facts, it is not unreasonable or over the top to suspect that you’re seeing the beginning of a crackdown on Bitcoin and its users in general. To not have concerns that are almost certainly valid is not only jaw droppingly naïve, but it shows a surprising absence of knowledge of both ancient and recent history and current events, like Australia calling for Elon Musk’s arrest, and Brazil attacking X, and the constant trickle of state attacks on Gab, (not Bitcoin related but clear government overreach) or the very related threat of the EU creating the fake, “Unhosted Wallet” category, in a clear attempt to outlaw self custody (google.com/search?source=ig&…). It is not therefore unreasonable to suspect that there is a coordinated attack on Bitcoin tools and users going on and ramping up right now. You’d have to be blind or totally, shockingly naïve to not at least suspect it, with the abundant evidence that's only a mouse click away. “To my knowledge, there is still rule of law in the US, property rights are still protected, and privacy is enshrined in the Bill of Rights”. “Jan 6, Jan 3?” That's a clever juxtaposition. If you know...you know! “It would be very difficult to change the law or stretch it to incriminate these things because it's all just information and software, which is speech.” I’ve been saying that Bitcoin is speech and not money for years (medium.com/swlh/why-america-…). In a lawless country, changing the law is irrelevant. The argument that Bitcoin is speech hasn’t yet been established by SCOTUS, and this should happen in due course. This is why BitLicense remains unchallenged. No one is going to fund going to court if everyone assumes it’s business as usual, everything is Care Bear My Little Pony Rainbows, which it clearly isn’t in light of the multiple attacks on several fronts. "#Bitcoin  is freedom technology and it will continue on." Memes, catchphrases, hashtag warfare, hats and LULZ will not help in the final battle for Bitcoin. Bitcoin can continue, but how will it be used, and who will have permission to fully access it. That's the obvious root question. It’s a shame if all people can offer is gestures, and of course none of the Community gestures will actually work, although the social rallying and propaganda aspect have some utility. Convincing others that there’s nothing to be concerned about is categorically wrong, and actually dangerous, because it makes users complacent. Blaming the victim because you don’t like them personally and dislike their ill mannered and brusque speech is not long term or Bitcoiner thinking. If the rights of your enemies are not defended, you can be sure “they” are coming for you next. If only Mircea Popescu were alive! The Two Samourai are amongst the oldest of the OG Bitcoiners. Their robust work and fantastic suite of tools speaks for itself. Because they’re cutting edge freedom activists they’re being attacked. That's obvious...to at least some people. Raising completely valid concerns is the behaviour of psychologically normal people with one eye on the future. That's how Bitcoin came to be written in the first place, and it is a characteristic of real Bitcoiners. Does anyone rational want the worst outcome and trouble? Obviously not. Ignoring what’s happening however, burying your head in the sand like an (n)ostrich is irrational. Should people overreact? No. But pretending nothing is happening is utterly absurd. Unapologetically and vigorously defending people’s rights is the correct reaction, and overreacting in defence of liberty is no vice. The first step in solving a problem is identifying that there is a problem. Pretending that there is no problem is itself a problem.

Keep calm and HODL #Bitcoin. Everyone seems to be overreacting to the Samourai arrests, the FBI PSA, and Phoenix leaving the US. Here's my attempt to break it down. Samourai You have to unpack all of the different elements. Could this be a state attack on self-custody and privacy? Maybe. Probably not. There are a few components here that need to be evaluated on their own. 1⃣ Samourai was a self-custodial wallet 2⃣ Samourai was a mixer 3⃣ Samourai was providing normal people with privacy 4⃣ Samourai were knowingly marketing the service to criminals and flaunting that fact Reading the charges, it seems like #4 is pretty cut and dry for this case. Their getting arrested for #4, doesn't automatically mean #1, #2, #3 are under siege as well. If Samourai was a taco stand laundering money and bragging about it, I'm sure they would be taken down too. They may be accused of running a money transmitter now, but that may or may not stick. We'll find out in the trial. All that said, we should always be vigilant to attempts to erode privacy and the ability to self-custody. It just does not seem that this fight is *that* fight. FBI PSA Seems pretty normal that the FBI would advise people to use compliant services, and the entire announcement seems to revolve around potential disruptions due to Samourai being taken down, and potentially others in the future. Given they took action, they have to post some bulletin about it. Remember that when people lose funds or have funds stolen from them, they do go to the FBI for help. From their point of view, the best thing for people to do is use compliant services where they can potentially help. The announcement concludes saying that services that purposely break the law will be investigated - so again we go back to #4 above. This is nothing new, and self-custody is not being criminalized. Phoenix Leaving As @jack said, it's feels completely unnecessary. Phoenix obviously is not a MSB and they are not doing anything illegal. In my view, their exit from the US app stores is a complete overreaction. Keep Calm Could "they" come after wallets, developers, mixers, nodes, LSPs, sidechains, eCash, VPNs, encryption, etc? It's totally possible. But if you're not breaking the law, you have nothing to worry about. To my knowledge, there is still rule of law in the US, property rights are still protected, and privacy is enshrined in the Bill of Rights (@gladstein). It would be very difficult to change the law or stretch it to incriminate these things because it's all just information and software, which is speech. Some will try. But as they are trying, #Bitcoin is becoming more and more mainstream and integral to the world's financial system. #Bitcoin is freedom technology and it will continue on. Go outside this weekend and think about why you're here.
