as the information was sinking in regarding how extremely sloppy some of the money printing was and some of the other seemingly signs of desperation coming out of governing officials..

Here comes something I do not understand. To me it seems like a lot of people realized control was lost in that time frame and they are the same people who blame, hate or are scared of a currency made in such a way it requires no governing body and naturally arranges all and every thing necessary to make it safe against most problematic events including inflation and loss of control, with effects just as valid and feasible now, tomorrow and in a century. Bitcoin.

And I understand, many of them just never research and have no legitimate idea how it works. All they know is the B S they heard on main stream media and such. But it is not like you hear and learn about how 401k and properties work all your life. You have to do your own research and learn how and why by yourself. So why be such a hypocrite and choose to totally ignore Bitcoin's existence just because you want to be right. Some people are just like this and then I really believe there is no valid reason they should whine. They do this to themselves, choosing ignorance over knowledge.

I don't mind blaming people for failures to investigate and/or failures/refusals to look into matters, yet at the same time, I doubt that bitcoin as an answer or part of the solution is in any way obvious - especially sometimes it can be just difficult to get out of various patterns - and maybe some people will be in better places in their life in which they are more receptive to certain frameworks, and with some people bitcoin clicks faster than others, and likely even a lot of us might have experienced some aspect (or angle) of some receptiveness to shitcoinery, too... so sometimes we could be smart people and just get trapped into certain lines of thinking. and it could even take a very long time to get out of our lines of thinking... .. it is not like critical thinking skills are learned in school or even in the family, and even some people who seem to be critical thinkers will some times get attracted into some shitcoin, ICO, Defi, NFT, yield, leverage or some other kind of variation of bitcoin that is not bitcoin.

Also, the March 2020 meltdown did not necessarily strike people in regards to either that there is a problem and even if they perceived some kind of a problem, they might not necessarily consider bitcoin as part or all of the solution to the various perceived problems.. They might consider some other angle of the unfairnesses in society or even considering that leaders likely know more than what normies know.. And even being critical or skeptical of leaders might not lead to any kind of correct solution, but maybe lead to drug / alcohol abuse, self-mutilation or some other ways of giving up or going into some variation of fantasylandia.

There seems to be some kind of need to be receptive to bitcoin as a solution, a partial solution or something that contributes towards not going down misinformation tracks...and even some bitcoiners might not even know what is bitcoin, but they still figured out that maybe they should buy some.. just in case, even though they don't really understand it.. beyond the possibility of number go up technology.
