Most of the time I’m happily living in my bubble of weird, but sane people. Seeing how broken the outside people are is constantly taking me by surprise.

I believe that the “elites” have found out that breaking men is really a difficult task. But if they break women, the women will break men for them, then.

And here we are. But the tool is not sex, it’s not money or power. It’s not even feminism. It’s simpler, much simpler than that.

It’s gaslighting.

We are constantly gaslighted so much that we are not able to see the truth anyway. I have a conversation with a close friend - written conversation so we can reread it as much as we like - and both of us see exact opposite. She says that I’m gaslighting her, but to me, it is exactly what she’s doing to me. I am not able to see her angle and she’s not able to see mine. Who’s right?

It does not matter. It does not matter at all.

The society is broken, people are broken and no Bitcoin is going to fix this. No amount of kindness and turning the other cheek is going to fix this. We have eroded our trust to each other. And there is no simple way to fix this. Certainly no technology can fix this.

Our “elites” turned us against ourselves. Not only against each other, but against ourselves. We no longer have trust in ourselves.

But I don’t gaslight. No matter how you or anyone else try to frame it, I don’t do it. If I’m wrong (and I am most of the time), I apologise. I can change my worldview, I can change my mindset. If I’m wrong, make an argument, convince me. My biggest wins in life were when someone proved me I’m wrong.

But that’s not how this society works. We gaslight. That’s what we do.

Please don’t do it.

Thank you.
