Re: Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion
We live in a declining culture. When a culture is in the ascent people are rational and cooperative because all the people who weren't fucking died along the way. Past the peak, which I estimate to have happened in the 80s, people who literally think like children become an ever-increasing majority and the few rational people left are out-grouped. And then a lot of people die and the cycle resets.
So rational people find scapegoats to blame many of the ills of society, and think that somehow banishing the scapegoats is going to bring us to some kind of resolution? Okey dokey, we'll roll with that.
Newsflash: even if the scapegoated group actually does cause many of the ills, and they are effectively "neutralized", some other group will come along and fill in the gap.
Of course there is no solution. Human beings are flawed entities. Our outsized brain requires a lot of energy, so we are predatory and territorial by nature. "Becoming Vegan" is no solution either, since in order to ensure our brains have enough nutrition, one needs a lot of territory.
Life, in general, just isn't fair. There will always be a life form that uses an advantage and exploits another life form. Even plant life has its parasites. Even the trees, that grow up high and have their canopies spread wide are doing so at the expense of all the plant life below that have to settle for the slivers of sunlight that reaches them.
Kill all of the trees!
OK, almost done with that, what's next?
