Sometimes knowing too much peels the gloss off reality.
You start noticing decay beneath the surface,
the wild insane narratives holding everything together.
There is no switch to turn it off.
It becomes isolating because many people rely on those narratives just to function.
Bitcoin forced that shift for me.
Once you recognize how the fiat structure operates, you cannot return.
You find yourself observing others defend a framework that slowly extracts from them, while believing it protects them.
