Love these. Small thought on truth:
It can be discovered everywhere, but the place where it should be discovered systematically is at universities. The problem is that fiat, quite directly, incentivises misalignment with pure truth.
I work at a university and you can't imagine how many openly commmunist PhD's walk around that have zero intention of finding knowledge, they all just want to "save the world". They are motivated by a fake form of virtue and funded by a fake stream of money. A fiat collapse will dry up their funding, the deadwood will burn up and universities will be institutions of pure truth again, especially when bitcoiners become the ones that are funding the research.
