Ep 31. Scott Horton Pt 2. The Monopoly on Money. Wake Up Podcast

Scott Horton joins me again for Part 2 of our "Monopoly on" series of Podcasts. The last episode, if you've not yet heard it is Episode 29: https://anchor.fm/wakeuppod/episodes/Ep-29--Scott-Horton--Aleks-Svetski--The-Monopoly-on-Violence-Pt-1--Wake-Up-Podcast-eplqcs In this episode, we finally go down the Bitcoin Rabbit hole, and I make a call to all Libertarians out there to begin to understand Bitcoin, why it exists and how it is the best & most peaceful weapon we have against the state. Scott puts forward his framework (The Scott Horton method) of helping people whether left or right, come toward libertarianism, by agree with them and asking them to stay consistent wth their beliefs as they're applied to matters they may not agree with. We also discuss: - Proud Boys & Similar groups being labelled as domestic terrorists. - AOC bullshit. - Has war changed in 2020? (Ie; implicit wars like lockdowns, mask mandates, etc)? - Mexican Stand off / Deterrence, so now war is covert. - The difference between speaking to existing libertarians and normal people. - We started at the Plumb line. We've deviated. Are we managing to bring people back around? - Break the Monopoly on Money - How do we fix this? (Bitcoin, defund Brrr) - Libertarians & "battered woman syndrome". - How do we get more Libertarians onto Bitcoin? - The renunciation of power is perhaps where the weakness in libertarianism comes   And lots more.
