So Hopelessly Dependent – by Brandon Gentile

Morpheus: The Matrix is a system, Neo. That system is our enemy. But when you’re inside, you look around. What do you see? Business people, teachers, lawyers, carpenters. The very minds of the people we are trying to save. But until we do, these people are still a part of that system, and that makes them our enemy. You have to understand, most of these people are not ready to be unplugged. And many of them are so inured, so hopelessly dependent on the system that they will fight to protect it. Were you listening to me, Neo, or were you looking at the woman in the red dress?

Neo: I was…

Morpheus: Look again. Freeze it.

Neo: This…this isn’t the Matrix?

Morpheus: No. It’s another training program designed to teach you one thing. If you are not one of us, you are one of them.

Neo: What are they?

Morpheus: Sentient programs. They can move in and out of any software still hard-wired to their system. That means that anyone we haven’t unplugged is potentially an agent. Inside the Matrix, they are everyone and they are no one. We are survived by hiding from them by running from them. But they are the gatekeepers. They are guarding all the doors. They are holding all the keys, which means that sooner or later, someone is going to have to fight them.

Neo: Someone?

Morpheus: I won’t lie to you, Neo. Every single man or woman who has stood their ground, everyone who has fought an agent has died. But where they have failed, you will succeed.

Neo: Why?

Morpheus: I’ve seen an agent punch through a concrete wall. Men have emptied entire clips at them and hit nothing but air. Yet their strength and their speed are still based in a world that is built on rules. Because of that, they will never be as strong or as fast as you can be.

Neo: What are you trying to tell me, that I can dodge bullets?

Morpheus: No Neo. I’m trying to tell you that when you’re ready, you won’t have to.

We have talked about this process for a while now.

The Matrix movies were developed decades ago.

George Orwell, Aldous Huxley, and Ayn Rand wrote books about society and the average person marching aimlessly toward the abyss over the past century.

Consistently, history has shown us that humans have a hard time learning the lessons of the past.

Namely, understanding the nature and dangers of government and how large and onerous they can become by stealing the freedoms and wealth of their people.

This is precisely why the founding fathers created the documents that made America the land of the free and home of the brave.

If the last 2 years weren’t the glowing example of global entities going awry.

When we outsource our thinking and all bad consequences to our overlords we then atrophy our discernment muscle.

Life becomes harder to operate in and make sound decisions if we are using broken models or thinking we can shill off our responsibility/accountability on someone else.

We have been conditioned to think this way.

We have had schools, politicians, parents, academia, media, and the censorship (indirect and direct) form everywhere telling us what and who to be.

For our safety and security, of course.

The unproductive class is incentivized to not have more people learn the real game and spoil their party and have more competition.

We don’t have to be cogs in a system being used for our energy and life source.

We can break free from that system where they printed currency and steal our wealth through taxes and inflation.

It is opting out and buying the hardest asset known to man, bitcoin.

Bitcoin is hope, responsibility, accountability, and aligning the incentives of humans by lowering costs and raising the living standards of every human on earth.

Fix the money and reattach it to soundness and properties of this earth.

Return money to value and nature’s law and the systems all start to naturally heal over time.

Separation of money and state.

Can anyone answer why this power to counterfeit (print currency) and force another person to pay off, exists?

Stay strong,
