Embrace humility by seeing the paradoxes inherent to human nature. Overcome nihilism and doomerism with an understanding of philosophical idealism. This framing requires fewer assumptions than standard physicalism/materialism, and provides more intuitive insight into some of life's greatest mysteries. Why is humility so important? Why is utopianism so dubious? Let's explore the limits of consciousness and learn to take back sovereignty of our story and our soul.

47. A Progressive's Case for Bitcoin (Jason Maier)

A much needed pro bitcoin argument from a non-libertarian. Subtitled: a path toward a more just, equitable, and peaceful world.

Maier addresses common criticisms from the left such as how Bitcoin "enables crime and is bad for the environment". He put's those arguments to bed, while also demonstrating that Bitcoin is explicitly anti-fascist and anti-racist. This is the most "progressive" tech ever invented.
