https://www.thecut.com/article/saving-money-is-ruining-my-social-life.htmlI am not sure how to take that. Through the bitcoiner's eye, it grabbed my attention as if it could be some "anti-savings propaganda", though the article doesn't conclude with it being negative. Yes, it fails at looking into what may induce a "spending habit" but I suppose I can leave it to be a different subject for a different article.
Now the author has another article called "How to Deal With ‘Inflation Creep" (
https://www.thecut.com/article/how-to-deal-with-inflation-creep.html ), another simple "self-help lifestyle piece", which without surprise, again, doesn't look into potential causes. And I guess it's also ok and I'd tend to think that the author is legitimately unaware of the money being broken. But you know, when into bitcoin, we're keen to jump in and throw some "HFSP", "money printer go brrr" and "Bitcoin fixes this!".
So is that a creeping narrative that normalizes staying poor or am I just getting too easily triggered?
