  • It’s the difference between a covert narcissism that has so effectively camouflaged itself that one might not even be conscious of their own condition vs. an overt form that has become so effectively accepted into one’s psyche that whatever innate personality that may have been there before succumbing will have ended up so minimized or sidelined that it may never be able to exert any effect on one’s words/actions/ideas ever again, and the result is the more uniform/typical set of behaviors/actions, thought patterns/perspectives, and/or language that they employ to describe their experiences/beliefs.
    Similar in the narcissism aspect but very different manifestations (My current interpretation)





  • to me it feels like the subtle difference between a representative democracy and a direct democracy. Representative tends to be more common as those in power are more willing to transition to systems in which they could reasonably hope to keep most of their power, whereas I see the crypto selling point being that the end-users would have some voting rights towards the setting of inflationary rates (different mechanisms for adjustment than fiat, I am sure [seriously not an expert on crypto or fiat {or what I think involves an understanding of “modern monetary theory”}]), versus non-government financial platforms such as bank owners (federal reserve) printing the money in order to effect inflation rates.
