“Nationalism is our form of incest, is our idolatry, is our insanity. 'Patriotism' is its cult... Just as love for one individual which excludes the love for others is not love, love for one's country which is not part of one's love for humanity is not love, but idolatrous worship.”
-Erich Fromm, The Sane Society

whats with all this referring to yourself in the 3rd person stuff ? You are starting to sound like Donald Trump
It's mostly just for fun, but also to push the World Citizen concept. Also pushing class consciousness (especially for Temporarily Embarrassed Millionaire Americans) and solidarity. As well as the importance of compassion now, at the dawn of humanity's Age of Empathy.“Nationalism is our form of incest, is our idolatry, is our insanity. 'Patriotism' is its cult... Just as love for one individual which excludes the love for others is not love, love for one's country which is not part of one's love for humanity is not love, but idolatrous worship.”

Hey, Beli - some great links.
Can I be so bold as to add this :- Matt Whitlock on Elliptic Curve Cryptography
It says in the intro that he's an "Anarcho Capitalist" - but I'll forgive him that one, as his explanation of the maths I thought was really engaging and well explained.
BTW Beli - I am a big fan, as you know - but whats with all this referring to yourself in the 3rd person stuff ? You are starting to sound like Donald Trump

Beliathon, you have posted some excellent material! I hope that you get your wish, that people read (watch) some/many of the pieces above.
Yeah, I am hoarding BTC, as fast as I get my hands on them.

My contribution to a reading list is just below. Here I tackle the interesting problem of how to better cover your tracks while using BTC. A "new" used laptop. Long daisy chains of transactions. I did not address TOR and email encryption, as those are beyond my scope. For now anyway.
