Speaker 1: Hey, everyone, Welcome back to another episode of The Markma Show,
Speaker 1: where we're talking about bitcoin and the decentralized revolution that
Speaker 1: is happening right now, right before us. Now. I try
Speaker 1: to bring to you a bunch of different areas about bitcoin,
Speaker 1: because it's it's a big subject. You know. I've had
Speaker 1: many friends that have said, well, actually one friend, one
Speaker 1: friend said, explain bitcoin to me, like I'm five years
Speaker 1: old and in two minutes, and I said, I can't, Like,
Speaker 1: you can't get it, Like it's a deep, deep subject.
Speaker 1: I've been studying it for seven years and I'm still
Speaker 1: trying to figure it out, right because it's it's such
Speaker 1: a new technological revolution and it's literally going to change
Speaker 1: the entire world. And so you have to understand six
Speaker 1: or eight different disciplines. UM. You have to understand, you know, finance, economics,
Speaker 1: monetary history, technology, game theory, philosophy, UM, game, you know,
Speaker 1: all these different things. One of the areas that I
Speaker 1: like to think about is um trying to kind of
Speaker 1: think about the future of where things go with bitcoin.
Speaker 1: We like to say, uh, a lot time people say
Speaker 1: bitcoin fixes this, right, bitcoin fixes bitcoin fixes everything, And
Speaker 1: we said that because if you can fix the money
Speaker 1: you can fix the world. Um, there's been something going
Speaker 1: on in the news. It literally broke Google the other
Speaker 1: day and uh, it's called a mass formation psychosis. And
Speaker 1: if you're a fan of the Joe Rogan Show, which
Speaker 1: you probably are. I think he gets over like two
Speaker 1: hundred million downloads a month, Uh, then you probably heard
Speaker 1: about it. That's why I broke the Internet. And I'm
Speaker 1: joining the studio today by my good friend Jessica Vaughan,
Speaker 1: who is a bitcoiner and she is also I believe,
Speaker 1: a psych major, so she's someone who is uh a
Speaker 1: good person to talk about this mass for formation psychosis.
Speaker 1: And I think, um, I had this revelation where I
Speaker 1: was listening to uh digging into this studying and understanding,
Speaker 1: and I think bitcoin fixes it, like it fixes everything
Speaker 1: as I want to talk about that. Jessica, thanks so
Speaker 1: much for joining today. Well it's good to have you
Speaker 1: back state side again. Yeah, back in the US again.
Speaker 1: I've been living on a Caribbean island for the last year,
Speaker 1: which um has been pretty amazing. Actually I had a
Speaker 1: hard time adjusting for the first six months and I
Speaker 1: don't want to leave, but but but here I am back.
Speaker 1: But I know you're a huge Joe Rogan fan. Um,
Speaker 1: what I found very interesting, and obviously, being in media,
Speaker 1: I've been paying attention to this. But um, CNN and
Speaker 1: MSNBC and ABC and blah blah blah, they consider themselves
Speaker 1: mainstream media. But I think Joe Rogan has kind of
Speaker 1: surpassed that. What do you think, Well, they've been doing
Speaker 1: everything they can to lose the good faith of the people,
Speaker 1: so um, of course we're going to find alternative means
Speaker 1: of getting our information. Yeah. I saw who was it?
Speaker 1: I think it was Luke Gramin on Twitter the other
Speaker 1: day posted, Uh, who would have thought that after a
Speaker 1: decade of lying about Western weapons of mass destruction and
Speaker 1: lying about inflation, and lying about this and lying about that,
Speaker 1: who would have ever thought that they would lost their
Speaker 1: their viewers? Right? Um, Well, and they've dialed it up
Speaker 1: so much since I don't know, so yeah, and and
Speaker 1: they just continued to do that. I saw you probably
Speaker 1: saw on Twitter the other day too. It was kind
Speaker 1: of going around. It was like this chart of like, uh,
Speaker 1: Joe Rogan and Tucker Carlson and like ranked all the
Speaker 1: main shows, and Joe Rogan was obviously, you know, massive
Speaker 1: at the top and then Tucker Carlson was number two,
Speaker 1: and then it was like the five, and then it
Speaker 1: was mostly like Fox stuff, and then you had like
Speaker 1: the CNN is like way down below that. That was
Speaker 1: the highlight of my week, was seeing that chart. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it was. It was. It was pretty amazing. And I
Speaker 1: was looking. I was looking. It was probably a month ago,
Speaker 1: two months ago. I was looking at some of the
Speaker 1: ratings of some of the networks like CNN and Anderson
Speaker 1: Cooper the number one show was getting like seven hundred
Speaker 1: thousand views per episode or something like that. In five
Speaker 1: Male demo, he gets like a hundred and fifty thousand views,
Speaker 1: And I'm like, I get more views than that on
Speaker 1: my YouTube videos and I'm not even big. Um, Like
Speaker 1: Joe Rogan's getting two hundred million views. Um, that's mainstream.
Speaker 1: That's great news about their credibility declining. Now most of
Speaker 1: their views are probably counted by people walking by in
Speaker 1: the airport seeing on the TV. But jumping back into
Speaker 1: the point at hand, By the way, you're listening to
Speaker 1: the markma show, We're talking about bitcoin, but it's gonna
Speaker 1: takes a long way to get there. Uh, we're talking
Speaker 1: about something a little bit different. Today, I'm in the
Speaker 1: studio with Jessica Van and we're talking about this mass
Speaker 1: formation psychosis that Joe Rogan was talking about with. It
Speaker 1: was actually started by this doctor h Matteas Desmond, I
Speaker 1: believe I listened to him several months ago, and then
Speaker 1: Dr Peter mccola and then Dr Robert Malone both were
Speaker 1: on Joe Rogan talking about this, and UM, if you
Speaker 1: if you're not familiar with the topic, basically what it
Speaker 1: is is that the whole world appears to be kind
Speaker 1: of not the whole world. A big majority of the
Speaker 1: world appears to be somewhat kind of brainwashed or I
Speaker 1: should say hypnotized, and regardless of facts or information, they're
Speaker 1: like unwilling to look at this. And UM, a lot
Speaker 1: of people go like, what the heck, can't can't they
Speaker 1: see what's going on? But they can't. And um, this happens,
Speaker 1: has happened many times throughout history. You know, I'm a
Speaker 1: history buff. And one of the best examples would be
Speaker 1: back in uh in world at you know, Nazi Germany,
Speaker 1: and you would see all these people turning on each
Speaker 1: other and just like you know, villainizing each other, and
Speaker 1: then literally you know, the Holocaust was literally people were
Speaker 1: put into gas chambers, and I always asked myself, like,
Speaker 1: why would they just walk into a gas chamber knowing
Speaker 1: what was going to happen. But it was all part
Speaker 1: of this mass psychosis. And so jess, I'll frame up
Speaker 1: what he says are like the conditions that created So
Speaker 1: one is that, um, there's a massive disconnect, so people
Speaker 1: are disconnected, and I would I guess you would agree
Speaker 1: that's probably never you know, disconnected, the level never seen before. Yeah, well,
Speaker 1: I mean in the lockdowns. Of course has ascerbated all
Speaker 1: the that division. It's the lockdowns, But I think it
Speaker 1: really started way before that. Um, I think that was
Speaker 1: definitely put it into overdrive. But I think really I
Speaker 1: would say that started probably in the sixties, and probably
Speaker 1: in the sixties if I were to put my finger
Speaker 1: on it. Um, when um, political correctness started coming in.
Speaker 1: We went into the kind of free love thing. The
Speaker 1: nuclear family started getting broken down, religion started kind of
Speaker 1: going away, and all the values that you know, the
Speaker 1: American family and the American citizen had started to disappear.
Speaker 1: And then we had this like shared sense of values
Speaker 1: that kept people together, kept people aligned because the media
Speaker 1: tells us that we align on sexual preference or orientation
Speaker 1: or race or gender or whatever, but we aligned on values.
Speaker 1: Wouldn't you agree, Oh definitely. But identity politics is of
Speaker 1: course a tool. Well it's a tool to divide. But
Speaker 1: my point is is when we all had shared values,
Speaker 1: we had this togetherness. And you know, we had World
Speaker 1: War one, World War two, and Vietnam. We're together together together.
Speaker 1: But once we started breaking down those values, there's nothing
Speaker 1: to connect people anymore anyway. Uh, And so I think
Speaker 1: that's probably where it started, Um, you know, breaking down
Speaker 1: the family, breaking down religion, things like that. And then
Speaker 1: with political correctness, started trying to basically change everything that
Speaker 1: we knew. And then you know, technology I think definitely
Speaker 1: kind of brought that on. We started probably relying on
Speaker 1: social media more as opposed to real life connections, which
Speaker 1: I've seen many studies on how that is has been detrimental. Well,
Speaker 1: even with language, we're so divided. Um, there's entire concepts
Speaker 1: that that the left and the right have separately that
Speaker 1: they don't even intersect with it all. And and then
Speaker 1: we fight with each other about you know, proper words
Speaker 1: and political correctness and these types of things. So so yeah, um,
Speaker 1: we're definitely decoupled. Yeah, so we've we've had this. Um.
Speaker 1: So that's that's the first thing that has to happen
Speaker 1: for this mass psychosis is this disconnection. Right, people feel
Speaker 1: isolated alone, and uh with with social media that never
Speaker 1: never felt so alone, and then with with the COVID
Speaker 1: literally being locked in their houses and and being disconnected.
Speaker 1: The second thing that has to happen before you have
Speaker 1: this mass psychosis. So when you think about this mass formation,
Speaker 1: it's really like I think about a crowd, like the
Speaker 1: madness of a crowd kind of thing. That's that's kind
Speaker 1: of what that word means. And so the second thing
Speaker 1: that has to happen is um, lack of sense of purpose.
Speaker 1: And so when you look at polls, you can see
Speaker 1: that you know, majority of people feel that there's no
Speaker 1: meaning in their job. They don't understand what they're doing,
Speaker 1: they're they're not getting any kind of fulfillment, and people
Speaker 1: are just stuck in life without the sense of purpose anymore.
Speaker 1: There's no fulfillment. And uh, we've seen that trend kind
Speaker 1: of grow. It's been big. Um. By the way, you're
Speaker 1: listening to the Markma show, we talk about bitcoin. Today,
Speaker 1: we're talking about a mass formation psychosis. But I'm gonna
Speaker 1: tell you why I think bitcoin is the answer to
Speaker 1: this mass formation psychosis. So I know we're talking about bitcoin,
Speaker 1: but I'm gonna bring this back together. You gotta stick
Speaker 1: with me. I guarantee you're gonna be interested. It's going
Speaker 1: to tell you a lot of what's going on. Um.
Speaker 1: I'm in the studio today with Jessica Vaughan. You can
Speaker 1: find her on Twitter at jess Van. You can find
Speaker 1: her on get her at Jessica Vaughan as well. You
Speaker 1: can find me at number one Mark Moss. Uh, I
Speaker 1: haven't got set up on getting yet. I've reserved my name.
Speaker 1: But uh, if you if you're if you're on either
Speaker 1: one of those platforms, hit me up. We're talking about
Speaker 1: bitcoin and the mass formation psychosis, how it can solve it.
Speaker 1: We'll be back with more. Don't go away, all right,
Speaker 1: Welcome back. You are listening to the Mark Moas Show.
Speaker 1: We're talking about bitcoin. We're talking about cryptocurrencies and the
Speaker 1: decentralized revolution. We often say that bitcoin fixes this, and
Speaker 1: when I say this, we mean everything. Um, because we
Speaker 1: see that if we can fix the money, you can
Speaker 1: fix the world. The world is under what we've been
Speaker 1: hearing about the last week or two with the Joe
Speaker 1: Rogan Show and Dr Peter mccola and Dr Robert Malone,
Speaker 1: under this mass formation psychosis, and I believe Bitcoin fixes this.
Speaker 1: I kind of had this revelation. So I'm in the
Speaker 1: studio with Jess von Um. She's the psych major here,
Speaker 1: so she's a little bit better equip to talk about
Speaker 1: this than me. But it's interesting. So we're talking about
Speaker 1: the four conditions that have to be present for this
Speaker 1: to have and for this mass formation, which is basically
Speaker 1: the madness of the crowd. Everybody kind of falls into
Speaker 1: this trance. And so the first one was disconnected isolation.
Speaker 1: We talked about that. The second one is um no
Speaker 1: sense of purpose, and so we were talking about how
Speaker 1: people being pulled today just find there's no sense of
Speaker 1: purpose in their job. They're doing these mundane tasks and
Speaker 1: they don't even know what that means. Free floating anxiety. Well,
Speaker 1: that's the third one, right, So the third one is
Speaker 1: then the free floating anxiety, and so what does that mean? So, uh,
Speaker 1: you know, in the old days, if I used to
Speaker 1: see a lion, I had massive anxiety on that lion,
Speaker 1: my adrenaline rush. But as soon as I ran away
Speaker 1: and I didn't have that lie anymore than my anxiety
Speaker 1: would go away. But today we have this unhinged, untethered,
Speaker 1: this free floating anxiety. We don't know what we're anxious for, right, Yeah, Well,
Speaker 1: it ties back into number two about the sense of
Speaker 1: purpose purposelessness. People aren't designed to not have a reason
Speaker 1: to get up in the morning. Do you think those
Speaker 1: two go together, they're not separate. I do, well. I
Speaker 1: think I think that the um, the anxiety is downstream
Speaker 1: of of the lack of purpose. Well, and they probably
Speaker 1: all three pour into each other. Right, So when you're disconnected,
Speaker 1: then you don't feel the sense of purpose. You have
Speaker 1: some sense of purpose, then you don't have the anxiety. Yeah,
Speaker 1: talk to anybody in the city. There's a lot of that. Yeah.
Speaker 1: You know, when I talked about earlier, um talking about
Speaker 1: how really the breakdown of society I think probably started
Speaker 1: really maybe back in the sixties, and a lot of
Speaker 1: it had to do with this breakdown of the nuclear family.
Speaker 1: And um, when you're in a family, you especially if
Speaker 1: you think back on when you grew up on the farm,
Speaker 1: right for example, and everybody had a sense of purpose,
Speaker 1: like you got to milk the cows, you gotta go
Speaker 1: work the field, you gotta like work on the barn
Speaker 1: or whatever. Right, and we all have this like sense
Speaker 1: of purpose. We're all working together co optively, um, and
Speaker 1: we're connected. So we're connected and we have a sense
Speaker 1: of purpose and we don't have any anxiety because everything
Speaker 1: is there kind of in front of us now in
Speaker 1: the future is so hard to project right now, it's
Speaker 1: hard to find um for people to find reasons to
Speaker 1: stay motivated because they're not sure. If everything is destable
Speaker 1: as then what are you working for? And you can't
Speaker 1: imagine a future that culture is working hard to bring you.
Speaker 1: And if you're in disagreement about what that happens to be,
Speaker 1: then you lose confidence. Yeah. So yeah, they're downstream, so
Speaker 1: each one kind of spills into the next. So then we, uh,
Speaker 1: we're disconnected, lack of sense of purpose, and we have
Speaker 1: this free flow and anxiety. I think I saw a
Speaker 1: poll it was like, um, I think sixty of women
Speaker 1: are on some form of antidepressant. I think in the
Speaker 1: U S. Isn't that astonishing? It's massive, It's massive. I
Speaker 1: think one I think that goes to the point of
Speaker 1: this free flow and anxiety. Um. It also has something
Speaker 1: to do with the fiat money, fiat medicine. Everybody's on
Speaker 1: every everybody's on pharmaceuticals these days as well. I think
Speaker 1: that that also, which which the Fiat money creating fiat medicine,
Speaker 1: is something that I think bitcoin fixes and we'll talk
Speaker 1: about how we get out of this mass like coasts
Speaker 1: with bitcoin, we get back to that. But I think
Speaker 1: that shows that there is this this free flow and
Speaker 1: anxiety as well. Of course, um, you know today, um,
Speaker 1: the media and really probably in the last five or
Speaker 1: six years maybe, um, the media is really keyed into
Speaker 1: what we call fear porn, right where they're just basically
Speaker 1: trying to show us they they found that we're more
Speaker 1: engaged on social media if they show us things that
Speaker 1: make us scared or mad. Isn't that so predatory? Yeah?
Speaker 1: It is, it is, right, So instead of showing us
Speaker 1: pictures of puppies that make us feel warm and fuzzy,
Speaker 1: we actually get more and more likely to comment on
Speaker 1: something that makes me mad. Then I am on something
Speaker 1: that makes me happy. So great for culture and cohesion. Yeah, Um,
Speaker 1: you know what it is is it's um. I I
Speaker 1: want to say, it's not anybody's fault. It's misaligned incentives.
Speaker 1: That's the problem. And bitcoin fixes that. We're gonna come
Speaker 1: back to how it fixes those incentives, but it's it's
Speaker 1: the missaligned incentives, right, And so this fiat money system
Speaker 1: creates all types of misaligned incentives, and that being one
Speaker 1: of them. Where now these the companies show us things
Speaker 1: that make us scared or angry or mad just to
Speaker 1: get more media and then lock you in your homes
Speaker 1: and make sure that you can't go out and you know,
Speaker 1: playing the sunshine and so that you have to do
Speaker 1: nothing but take in more of that information. Yeah. So
Speaker 1: there's there's that. There's that too. I saw um jumping
Speaker 1: jumpy topics real quick. Uh. I know we've both been
Speaker 1: down to El Salvador and checked out Bitcoin, Bitcoin Central,
Speaker 1: Bitcoin uh country as they call it down there, and
Speaker 1: Bitcoin Beach. And what's interesting is once you start interacting
Speaker 1: with bitcoin, um, how it changes your life. And the
Speaker 1: president bouqua Ley has you know, they adopted bitcoin there
Speaker 1: and it looks like it's literally changed him by I
Speaker 1: don't know him personally, but by what he's tweeting and
Speaker 1: the other day they put out a video of people
Speaker 1: getting healthy, like actually exercising and eating like vegetables, and
Speaker 1: they said, hey, the best way to beat this is prevention,
Speaker 1: like get healthy, and it was like, that was the
Speaker 1: first time we've seen that official narrative anywhere on the
Speaker 1: planet ever, Like, who would have thought that maybe you
Speaker 1: should try when we're in like this period of everyone
Speaker 1: getting sick, that we should actually work on like being
Speaker 1: more healthy. Who would have thought? Um, So that was
Speaker 1: that was interesting to see him and how Bigcin has
Speaker 1: fixed that is changing that. But back to the mass
Speaker 1: formation psychosis and so uh so it's it's one was
Speaker 1: the conditions were one disconnected to lack of purpose, three
Speaker 1: free flow and anxiety. And then the fourth one is
Speaker 1: what happens is the catalyst and it's somebody a leader
Speaker 1: comes along and says, this is the reason for the
Speaker 1: mass or the free flowing anxiety. This is so now
Speaker 1: you can focus on one thing and everybody come with
Speaker 1: me and we'll fix it. It's like the pied Piper
Speaker 1: introduces faucism. Yeah, I mean, it's it's expertism experts, right, um,
Speaker 1: they asked Desmond. Dr Desmond I was listening to actually Malone,
Speaker 1: mccola and Desmond were talking last night and they said,
Speaker 1: who is this leader? And he said, well, it's it's
Speaker 1: the experts, it's the experts. So they didn't they they
Speaker 1: didn't name one person like that because it's vaucies in
Speaker 1: the US, but every country kind of has their own faucie,
Speaker 1: I suppose. But it's the leaders, right, It's it's the leaders.
Speaker 1: And it's kind of reminds me of that pipe piper,
Speaker 1: where everybody's willing to follow them because they've identified the
Speaker 1: problem and they can lead me to somewhere different that
Speaker 1: solves that. Yeah, and everybody wants a hero when they
Speaker 1: can't make sense of what's happening in the world and
Speaker 1: getting all these conflicting messages, so everybody's trying to you know,
Speaker 1: export they're thinking, yeah, and the Fiat money system has
Speaker 1: got everything so complicated that everybody knows there's something wrong,
Speaker 1: but they can't they can't put their finger on it.
Speaker 1: They don't know what it is. And and uh, you
Speaker 1: know a lot of media makes us the victim culture.
Speaker 1: Well it's because you're a victim, you know, or whatever,
Speaker 1: and so everybody's like looking for the reason. But this
Speaker 1: comes along where like the leader says, this is it
Speaker 1: and I can lead you to the Promised Land and everybody,
Speaker 1: everybody kind of joins in. Well, that was the only way.
Speaker 1: That type of social pressure is the only way to
Speaker 1: make other people conform that are busy, you know, living
Speaker 1: their lives and not conforming to the mass formation psychosis. Now, Um,
Speaker 1: you're listening to the markma Show. We are talking about bitcoin,
Speaker 1: but we're talking about this mass formation psychosis that was
Speaker 1: broke the Internet, um, with Dr Malone and Dr mccolla
Speaker 1: talking about it on the Joe Rogan Show. Um, just
Speaker 1: in the last week or two. Um. Literally when I
Speaker 1: say broke the Internet, I mean broke the internet. Google
Speaker 1: couldn't keep up with the search results for this mass
Speaker 1: formation psychosis. Um. But I'm gonna bring it back to bitcoin.
Speaker 1: So we talked about what sets it up. Now we're
Speaker 1: going to talk about how do we come out of it,
Speaker 1: and how is bitcoin specifically coin to fix it. It's amazing.
Speaker 1: Don't go away. I'm gonna be right back, all right,
Speaker 1: Welcome back. You are listening to the Mark Moa Show,
Speaker 1: and we're talking about bitcoin. We're talking about the decentralized revolution,
Speaker 1: and we are talking about something that is not really
Speaker 1: about Bitcoin at first, clients, we're talking about something called
Speaker 1: the mass formation psychos This it literally broke Google the
Speaker 1: other day after Joe Rogan hosted both Peter McCollough first
Speaker 1: and then Dr Robert Malone, and they both talked about
Speaker 1: this UM and we're talking about bitcoin. We're talking about
Speaker 1: mass promotions, mass formation psychosis. And the reason why it's
Speaker 1: because we say bitcoin fixes this bit Bitcoin fixes everything.
Speaker 1: If you fix the money, you fix the world, and
Speaker 1: it even fixes this. So we went over UM. Basically
Speaker 1: the four conditions that create this. One people are disconnected
Speaker 1: to there's no sense of purpose. Three, there's unhinged h anxiety.
Speaker 1: And then finally forth a leader emerges to lead people
Speaker 1: into a new system. Now I'm joining the studio today
Speaker 1: with Jessica Vaughan. You can find her on Twitter at
Speaker 1: Jessica Vaughan. And uh, she's a psych major, so she's
Speaker 1: one someone that's probably a little more qualified to talk
Speaker 1: about this than I am. So we're talking about that.
Speaker 1: So these four conditions emerged, we went through that, and
Speaker 1: now this leader emerged that was the experts UM and
Speaker 1: and these people have basically gone into this this mass
Speaker 1: formation psychosis, which is like the madness of the crowds UM. Now.
Speaker 1: Dr Desmond matteas Deadman who put this together. He talked
Speaker 1: about like I think, um, thirty of the people fall
Speaker 1: into this type of hypnosis if you will, and then
Speaker 1: about kind of are in the middle, kind of just
Speaker 1: go along with it and then resisted something that something
Speaker 1: like that. So you have these group of people. So
Speaker 1: basically the thing is is that these people there, they're
Speaker 1: in this kind of hip hypnosis thing, which is interesting.
Speaker 1: On a side note, it must have been a year ago.
Speaker 1: I was listening to a podcast and uh it was
Speaker 1: some people that do NLP neural linguistic programming, which is
Speaker 1: something that Tony Robbins has talked about for a long time.
Speaker 1: Are you familiar with n LP. So n LP is
Speaker 1: is a way that you structure words um in order
Speaker 1: to get certain emotions or get reactions out of people.
Speaker 1: And so marketers typically marketers use this and they're trying
Speaker 1: to invoke emotions. It gets you to buy or something
Speaker 1: like that. So Tony Robbins is like the big NLP practitioners,
Speaker 1: so they have this NLP practitioners and then you can
Speaker 1: be certified and become like a master practitioners. So there's
Speaker 1: these master practitioners on this podcast and they were saying
Speaker 1: how the media was literally using NLP techniques on people
Speaker 1: to to brainwash them, to hypnotize them. And they made
Speaker 1: the case and they gave all kinds of examples. I
Speaker 1: don't remember off top of my head. Some one of
Speaker 1: the examples is when you constantly repeat something over and
Speaker 1: over and over, which is exactly what this mass formation is.
Speaker 1: When they continue to pound these numbers, these metrics, these
Speaker 1: fear things into your head. Um well, you can almost
Speaker 1: predict what people are going to say. People that listen
Speaker 1: to the media, you can you can um trigger the
Speaker 1: conversation with just bringing bringing up a subject and know
Speaker 1: exactly what they'll say. It's like, oh, because Anderson Cooper
Speaker 1: told them that's what they're supposed to think or how
Speaker 1: to feel about these sorts of things, and it just
Speaker 1: triggers them and you know what they're gonna say. Some
Speaker 1: of it though, like, uh, I love Henry Ford has
Speaker 1: some good some good quotes. One of the things he
Speaker 1: said is that thing king too such hard work, that's
Speaker 1: why so few people do it. And if you think
Speaker 1: about it biologically, I'm wondering where you think about the psychologically,
Speaker 1: But biologically, UM, thinking use a lot of brain power,
Speaker 1: and our body is always trying to conserve energy, and
Speaker 1: so we put a lot of things into habits, and
Speaker 1: so a lot of times the human human body, you know,
Speaker 1: you have the different difference of the conscious of the subconscious,
Speaker 1: and we're trying to run things on habit and on autopilot.
Speaker 1: And maybe that's one reason why we default more to
Speaker 1: um residing headlines without thinking about it. Carl Young has
Speaker 1: a similar quote, UM to that forward quote that you
Speaker 1: just said, Um, that thinking is hard. That's why most
Speaker 1: people judge, and that his use of judging was a
Speaker 1: little different than our conventional use. But defaulting to these
Speaker 1: presumptions that we have about things that are more firm
Speaker 1: in our minds than they ever should be, like you
Speaker 1: have to you have to approach things with nuance like
Speaker 1: and and a lot of people don't have that, um,
Speaker 1: you know, kind of critical thinking ability, especially not when
Speaker 1: they're being programmed with force of the state behind it
Speaker 1: to take a narrative that they're not, you know, And
Speaker 1: then everybody wants to outsourcers thinking and say, well, I'm
Speaker 1: not an expert, of course, I'll just listen to the experts. Well,
Speaker 1: that never was supposed to lobotomize your brain from considering
Speaker 1: that your views and what your own eyes show you.
Speaker 1: I love what you said there about most people don't
Speaker 1: take the time to think about the nuance everybody wants
Speaker 1: to think. I hate to say the word everybody. I
Speaker 1: get about five thousand comments that week across all my
Speaker 1: social media platforms, so I get a pretty good sample size.
Speaker 1: But I see everybody has this very rigid thinking where
Speaker 1: it's like there's no inflation, or there is inflation, or
Speaker 1: there is this, there isn't that, And it's like, dude,
Speaker 1: there's all kinds of nuance in this right And so
Speaker 1: a lot of times you'll find some of the details there.
Speaker 1: But so the media has been using this NLP, which
Speaker 1: also kind of brainwashes us or or um. What happens
Speaker 1: is they can get through our our conscious and get
Speaker 1: into our subconscious and then we don't we don't really
Speaker 1: think about it um. And so basically that when when
Speaker 1: you think see things going on today and you're like
Speaker 1: that doesn't make any sense, Like how can people agree
Speaker 1: to that? Like there's there's no rational way that anyone
Speaker 1: could think that. Um, but this is why, because they're
Speaker 1: not thinking that, they're just doing that. But but here's
Speaker 1: the other piece, the other pieces that in this mass
Speaker 1: formation psychosis, people fall into what's called rituals. And so
Speaker 1: whenever you have cults or things like that, people do rituals.
Speaker 1: And it could be in religions. I mean there's all
Speaker 1: different types of things like that, clubs or whatever, and
Speaker 1: people do these rituals and a lottimes, these rituals from
Speaker 1: an outsiders perspective are completely ridiculous, like that makes no sense.
Speaker 1: But they do these rituals to be part of the
Speaker 1: club and to show like their own sacrifice for being
Speaker 1: in that right initiation rituals. Yeah, and just and but
Speaker 1: but it also makes sense, right because if one of
Speaker 1: the components that leads to this is that there's no connectedness,
Speaker 1: then it makes sense that when everybody, the mass formation,
Speaker 1: the crowd comes together, they want the connectiveness and in
Speaker 1: order to be connected, they have to align on something.
Speaker 1: But also they show these rich they do these rituals
Speaker 1: to show that they're in the crowd. Well, it's also
Speaker 1: the politicization of everything like you you know, and now
Speaker 1: flying a flag in your yard means that you're you know,
Speaker 1: a mega person type of thing. To where is even
Speaker 1: that wasn't that wasn't that, there wasn't not this divide.
Speaker 1: So there's that, and then and then there's the there's
Speaker 1: the censorship going across every platform. So Dr Robert Malone, Um,
Speaker 1: he's one of very instrumental in the technology of the
Speaker 1: m R and a vaccine. He has patents on it.
Speaker 1: Maybe he's not the only guy, but he you know,
Speaker 1: he was involved in it. And Twitter recently kicked him
Speaker 1: off over half a million followers there, Yeah, what a
Speaker 1: blessing to go on Rogan the next day. Um. But
Speaker 1: but then of course YouTube did you see YouTube censored?
Speaker 1: The videos took him down for his for Malone on
Speaker 1: on Rogan talking about making that parallel about what happened
Speaker 1: in you know, twenties and thirties. But so in that
Speaker 1: mass information psychosis, nobody wants to hear anything that goes
Speaker 1: against that. And um, the one thing that I would
Speaker 1: take take out of this too is that a lot
Speaker 1: of times we think that you know, all these policymakers
Speaker 1: or leaders or whatever we want to call them, I don't.
Speaker 1: I try not to use the word elite anymore. They're
Speaker 1: definitely not elite. I wouldn't hire any one of them
Speaker 1: to work in my business at all. But they're whatever
Speaker 1: politicians but partners, yeah what Yeah, partners for sure. But
Speaker 1: one thing is, like you think of them, maybe some
Speaker 1: people think of them as like evil or doing these
Speaker 1: things out of out of malice or malevolence, but really
Speaker 1: they're probably all just caught up in the same mass
Speaker 1: echosis as well, which is interesting. Um, But Okay, So
Speaker 1: now that we've kind of set the stage and kind
Speaker 1: of where we're at with that, now we'll transition to
Speaker 1: how do we come out of this mass formation psychosis
Speaker 1: and how does bitcoin fix this? And I think it
Speaker 1: gives me a great hope for bitcoin be because bitcoin
Speaker 1: is in this unique position that I think could actually
Speaker 1: fix this. And I know, I know we throw that
Speaker 1: around literally because we say bitcoin can fix everything, but
Speaker 1: but we literally can. Now, if you think about one
Speaker 1: of the conditions or one of the things that really
Speaker 1: lead to the condition of people being disconnected and no
Speaker 1: purpose or whatever is really centered in this fiat money
Speaker 1: system that we have today. And so because of this
Speaker 1: fiat money system, it's harder for people to work. Um,
Speaker 1: so now people have to work longer hours and multiple
Speaker 1: jobs and it's caused this breakdown. And now because we
Speaker 1: have all this fake money in the system, than people
Speaker 1: can go into career academia and think tanks and they
Speaker 1: don't have to live in a real world, and then
Speaker 1: they come up with these crazy as policies that don't
Speaker 1: mean anything. And so really it's the fiat money system
Speaker 1: that's created all the conditions that lead us into that,
Speaker 1: and people need to be led out into something else.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna explain what that is and explain how Bitcoin
Speaker 1: could be that thing, and how this could actually be
Speaker 1: one of the big turning points for bitcoin as well,
Speaker 1: and really what I'd rather say as a sound money system.
Speaker 1: You're listening to the Markma Show. We're talking about bitcoin
Speaker 1: in a long, roundabout way. We're talking about a mass
Speaker 1: formation psychosism in the studio with Jessica Vaughan talking about this,
Speaker 1: and when we come back, we are going to talk
Speaker 1: about the four steps to come out of this and
Speaker 1: how bitcoin fixes this. Don't go away, all right, welcome back.
Speaker 1: You are listening to the Markma Show. We're talking about
Speaker 1: bitcoin and uh, we always talk about bitcoin. We talked
Speaker 1: about this decentralized revolution. I'm in the studio with Jessica
Speaker 1: Vaughan and uh we're talking about bitcoin in a long,
Speaker 1: round about way and so uh, it's hard, hard to
Speaker 1: get just a lot of things. Um, we're talking about
Speaker 1: a mass formation psychosis, which is the whole world is
Speaker 1: seeming seemingly not the whole world, A majority of the the
Speaker 1: world is seemingly hypnotized. Um, and they're not taking in
Speaker 1: new information, rational information. Um. And so we set up
Speaker 1: how that is the three factors or the four factors
Speaker 1: of how that that's caused. We talked about, um, what's
Speaker 1: going on in that situation, and now we're talking about
Speaker 1: there's four steps to get out of it and and
Speaker 1: how bitcoin fixes this in my opinion, So, um, the
Speaker 1: four things are. One is that we need people to
Speaker 1: speak the truth. So uh. In this breakdown by Dr Desmond,
Speaker 1: he talks about how you know, not everybody's wrapped up
Speaker 1: in it, but but a big chunk of the population is.
Speaker 1: And so the people that aren't need to be able
Speaker 1: to speak the truth. Of course, that's very difficult when
Speaker 1: you're being censored and shut down. Well, that ties into
Speaker 1: the you know, the big tech monopolies going on, because
Speaker 1: they they edited, of course, the Google search results when
Speaker 1: people started, you know, by the by the millions looking
Speaker 1: up mass formation psychosis like and why does somebody get
Speaker 1: to do that? Well, the FIAT system is of course
Speaker 1: a big part of the reason why Google gets to
Speaker 1: do that and edit everybody's excess to information. And isn't
Speaker 1: I don't know about their section to thirties status, but um,
Speaker 1: don't they lose their safe faith and status if they're
Speaker 1: literally manipulating search results. I mean that's what they blame
Speaker 1: it on the algorithm. You now, they're manually going in
Speaker 1: and yeah, I mean I saw that they had evidence
Speaker 1: of it, and people were like taking screenshots and you
Speaker 1: could see it happening in real time. Um, there's a
Speaker 1: quote and I don't know who says that, and I
Speaker 1: should know who says the quote because I say it
Speaker 1: all the time. But ripping a man's tongue out does
Speaker 1: not prove him wrong. It only proves you have something
Speaker 1: to hide. So I always think about that in terms
Speaker 1: of sensorship. But um, so the first thing is we
Speaker 1: have to speak the truth. So um, I liked I've
Speaker 1: been talking about this a lot. Something I've been studying
Speaker 1: quite a bit. Actually a channel that you turned me
Speaker 1: onto on YouTube, Academy of Ideas. Yes, one of my
Speaker 1: favorite creators. I've binge watched all that stuff. I love it.
Speaker 1: And he talks about this all the time. And really
Speaker 1: he talks about um coming out of you know, Communist Russia,
Speaker 1: and uh it was Soultchanischev who wrote the Gulag Archipelas
Speaker 1: and Hovel who became the Czecholist Lavakian president. It was
Speaker 1: through their writings that really turned the tides and it
Speaker 1: kind of broke that down. And he talks about how
Speaker 1: it just takes somebody to live in the truth. And
Speaker 1: that's what Dr Desmond is talking about. How we break
Speaker 1: this mass psychosis is by speaking the truth. And so
Speaker 1: while all these people are living over there like living
Speaker 1: this lie, we can be over here living in the truth.
Speaker 1: And they're gonna go, wait, wait a minute, like why
Speaker 1: are like, like I just spent um, I just spent
Speaker 1: a week in Miami and it's like a couple weeks
Speaker 1: ago and everybody's like, I was there for Art Basil
Speaker 1: Week was packed. Yeah, it was Art Basil Week and Uh,
Speaker 1: I mean it was just parties everywhere, packed bumper to
Speaker 1: bump er, you know, rubbin and shoulders. Did you spot AOC?
Speaker 1: She was there after me. Luckily I didn't have to
Speaker 1: see her. But everybody was like living normal. But like meanwhile,
Speaker 1: in like New York, it's a totally different reality. Yeah.
Speaker 1: Ron de Santis just said somewhere that, um, you would
Speaker 1: be surprised at all the lockdown politicians that came to
Speaker 1: Florida for a break from that, and it's absurd. Yeah,
Speaker 1: So like they were, they're living the truth. And so
Speaker 1: when people like AOC go, wait a minute, they're living
Speaker 1: a different life in truth, like I should go there
Speaker 1: and she did, okay that step and never want to speak.
Speaker 1: The truth to um is that we need to bring
Speaker 1: people together, all right, So if people are feeling disconnected,
Speaker 1: we need to bring people together. Now we have all
Speaker 1: these different people, uh in camps that you're familiar with,
Speaker 1: like libertarianism or anarchism or it scares me when you
Speaker 1: say people in camps. Now you know mass formations yea, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: well but but different areas or sectors or whatever, right
Speaker 1: Conservatives and Republicans and libertarians and all these different people
Speaker 1: individualism and blah blah blah blah blah. Um. But they're
Speaker 1: all like in camps and they're all these like ice islands.
Speaker 1: And bitcoin is this like bridge. It's a bridge. It's
Speaker 1: like a uniting force that's like bringing all these people
Speaker 1: together because on their own like libertarianism or or anarchism
Speaker 1: or never. Like it's a great idea, but how did
Speaker 1: that actually happen? But bitcoin is the actual tool. Well,
Speaker 1: it solves so many problems. It's just great glue between
Speaker 1: these people that can't necessarily see what their commonalities are.
Speaker 1: But because it solves so many problems, it can be
Speaker 1: a solution for a lot of people all over the globe.
Speaker 1: And um, I mean it again. We we align on
Speaker 1: values and so it brings all these people different sexes, religions, races,
Speaker 1: sexual orientations, whatever, but it brings them all together on
Speaker 1: shared values. And as a matter of fact, shout out
Speaker 1: to the Bitcoin Conference two is going to be in Miami.
Speaker 1: I believe in April. I'm going to be there. Jessica
Speaker 1: is going to be there. Um, if you want to
Speaker 1: save ten percent on your tickets, go ahead and use
Speaker 1: Hello Jessica. I believe. Yeah, Jessica. Hello, Jessica, Hello. Sorry,
Speaker 1: so shout out for that. So if you want to
Speaker 1: come to the Bitcoin conference, there's gonna be about thirty
Speaker 1: five thousand people. Thoud people is like the largest like
Speaker 1: conference in the nation. Maybe, um, So if you want
Speaker 1: to come, we're both going to be there, safe temper
Speaker 1: ccentery tickets used. Jessica Hello, Um. But anyway, thirty people
Speaker 1: coming together on shared values. So that's bringing people together.
Speaker 1: So that's the second part. Um. The third part here's
Speaker 1: the here's the really important part um. This is the
Speaker 1: most important part, is that people were unhappy with where
Speaker 1: they were, which is why they're happy to follow this
Speaker 1: pied piper into a new reality. Now, of course, World
Speaker 1: Economic Forum has one for us called the Great Reset
Speaker 1: and the Fourth Industrial Revolution, where we're gonna merge man
Speaker 1: and machine and we're gonna live in this dystopia with
Speaker 1: central bank currencies and uh, social credit scores, which doesn't
Speaker 1: sound good to me, trans humanism, utopia all that, and
Speaker 1: I know it sounds crazy, but what I say is
Speaker 1: I take them at their word, like literally, go read
Speaker 1: their book. Clausha wrote a book called the Fourth Industrial Revolution.
Speaker 1: Just go read it. This is what he says, um,
Speaker 1: I don't like that world, but this is where they're
Speaker 1: taking us. And so people are caught up in this
Speaker 1: massycosis and there's like, okay, shoot, I guess we'll just
Speaker 1: go along. So what we can't do, per Dr Desmond,
Speaker 1: the doctor's prescription for this is not to say, hey, hey, hey,
Speaker 1: this is no good. Let's hold the line and stay
Speaker 1: where we were. They don't want to stay where we works.
Speaker 1: They didn't like it. What we have to do is
Speaker 1: with the elite, and that's what I've been guilty of.
Speaker 1: Hold the line, don't comply, don't write. But no, he says, no,
Speaker 1: we need to lead them somewhere else that solves the
Speaker 1: problems that they do have. And what are the problems
Speaker 1: that they have? All the problems were started because of
Speaker 1: the Fiat money system. So bitcoin is bringing people together
Speaker 1: on shared values, and it can take us into a
Speaker 1: new system, into a new paradigm that gets rid of
Speaker 1: the money printer, that gets rid of the source of
Speaker 1: all these problems. I think it's pretty amazing me too.
Speaker 1: I try so hard to articulate my arguments as to
Speaker 1: why the people that have always been in power they're
Speaker 1: offering you this beautiful solution, Well, you might want to
Speaker 1: consider that they're really just re re rigging the game
Speaker 1: to ensure that they have a luck on their power
Speaker 1: going forward with the technological opportunities that in the Internet
Speaker 1: and bitcoin, um, decentralized finance, all these things presents two
Speaker 1: individuals to opt out of the system, and they of
Speaker 1: course don't want definance. It's it's interesting to me, UM.
Speaker 1: We're a lot of people that I've talked to on
Speaker 1: both sides of the aisle um, left or right or
Speaker 1: whatever you have, do you want to divide that? A
Speaker 1: lot of times we see the same problems, but the
Speaker 1: solutions are different. And so we both see that the
Speaker 1: central planners have created the problems. But some people think
Speaker 1: that giving them more power and controls the answer, Which
Speaker 1: how does that make any sense? Like it's obviously not
Speaker 1: the that's the problem, But that's that's because they're they have,
Speaker 1: of course all these avenues to um displace the blame
Speaker 1: and blame it on other people or you know, certain presidents,
Speaker 1: this type of thing to displace all of that, when
Speaker 1: when really there's just so many layers to reality it's
Speaker 1: hard to peel all those back. For people when they
Speaker 1: we don't have a common um starting point, especially when
Speaker 1: all our the authorities we listen to are so different. Yeah. Yeah,
Speaker 1: good point. And then the fourth and final step in
Speaker 1: the doctor's prescription for the mass psychosis is don't fight. So, um,
Speaker 1: we don't wanna use violence. We don't want to fight,
Speaker 1: because what that does is that only UH focuses their angst,
Speaker 1: focuses their attention. Even more, it legitimizes the idea that
Speaker 1: you are the enemy exactly exactly, So we want to
Speaker 1: speak out of love, out of truth. And Dr Robert
Speaker 1: Malone He's like, I'm not a religious man, but I
Speaker 1: can just see how like the teachings of Jesus really
Speaker 1: were the key to this because it was like speaking
Speaker 1: the truth, speaking it out of love, showing a different way,
Speaker 1: all of those things, etcetera. Um. So, anyway, those are
Speaker 1: the four steps to do that. I think bitcoin can
Speaker 1: be the tool that brings us out of it. You
Speaker 1: listen to the Markma Show. We're talking about bitcoin in
Speaker 1: a long, roundabout way, talking about the mass formation psychosis
Speaker 1: in the studio with Jessica Vaughan. You can find her
Speaker 1: on Twitter and get her at Jessica Vaughan. Of course,
Speaker 1: I'm one. Mark Moss, that's it. Thanks so much for listening.
