This is an extract from a recent conversation with a friend, and was inspired, in part, by The "What is Money?" Show episode (WiM544) between Dr. Jack Kruse and breedlove22 (nprofile…xvfq) .
My friend was interested in my experience of intermittent and prolonged periods of #fasting, both for #weight loss, but more importantly, for #health and #healing.
Me: -
"I've said this all along. I agree with the premise of total fasting. Pure water only. Basically #fast until you're #healed. It's how animals naturally #heal themselves.
The doctors and big #pharma will not tell you this because a #patient cured, is a #customer lost... This is #fiat thinking. Fiat #healthcare. It's so messed up.
So, what are you waiting for? Someone else's permission to heal yourself? Fasting is the first thing I would do, and it's the thing I always do.
That said, I don't think it's all about grand gestures. It's also about consistently avoiding / minimising the poisons that are pretty much everywhere and in everything these days. From food and water, to fabrics, clothing, furniture, plastics, cosmetics, detergents, electromagnetic radiation, corporate / social media... I could go on ad infinitum. It's a full-on assault, I joke not."
My friend: -
"Why do you think it's got to this? Apart from the obvious profit motive."
Me: -
"That's all it is. It's because of fiat #currency.
The fiat system is rigged in such a way that game theory makes this inevitable. Cut costs, increase #profit, all based on #debt. Pay the debt off with more #borrowing to short the existing debt using #inflation (aka money printing / quantitative easing).
More and more #zombie companies emerge, propped up because they are ‘too big to fail’ and continue to create little to nothing of actual #value, whilst we the people are conditioned to buy things we don't need, with money that we don't have, to impress people we don't like...
This ultimately leads to high time preference behaviour, forcing the majority to act in a way that is very short term. Almost no one is able to think, plan or act for the long term, because the underpinning incentive is #corrupt.
Result = #death and #decay become inevitable.
It's #insane.
I didn't understand the cause of all this unnecessary #suffering until I learned about #bitcoin and the principles of sound #money. Unfortunately, there are still many people who don't even question it. You have...
...this is The Matrix. Welcome to the real world."
Coincidently, shortly after the above conversation, I came across this from TheGuySwann (nprofile…3aly)
Knock, knock, Neo.
