You may be impressed by the forceful *tone* of harding's post here. But I think the most important point is the slightly-less appreciated, nowadays, fact that Bitcoin is not just 'finite supply', but 'bypass a corrupt power system, fuck the banks'. Bitcoin 'grew out of' the era of Wikileaks, operation chokepoint, and of course '08 crisis up to '14 Cyprus confiscation event.

And if you struggle to resonate with this 'anti bank' position, despite how blatant it was with e.g. the Canadian trucker event, then I suggest you need to shake yourself up a bit and do *something* unusual for once, because the level of "normie" you have to be to not experience problems with banks is slowly reaching inhuman levels.

I fucking hate dealing with banks.

Most days if you ask me why I work on Bitcoin, I'll probably say something about eliminating the temptation for the state to print money, with all of its disastrous effects.

But every time I have to deal with a bank and must grovel to use my own fucking money, I feel the urge to hoist the black flag and start slitting throats. On days like today my work writing about Bitcoin technology is fueled entirely by rage and spite.
