#QuestionEverything

[unpluggedfinancial]

The Bitcoin Lens

We’re born into a world of assumptions. The money in our pockets has value because we’re told it does. The system works because we’re told it must. Most people go their whole lives never questioning the foundation they’re standing on. But once you put on the Bitcoin lens, the cracks begin to show—and suddenly, you can’t unsee them. What once looked like order starts to look like illusion. The lens doesn’t just reveal; it transforms.

The World Before the Lens

Before Bitcoin, I didn’t question much. Like most people, I worked hard, saved fiat, and hoped that one day it would all pay off. But inflation quietly chipped away at my earnings. Hidden fees, manipulated interest rates, and endless money printing were just background noise—until they weren’t. It was like trying to build a future on quicksand. The deeper I looked, the more I realized: the system wasn’t broken. It was built this way.

We’re told to trust centralized institutions while they gamble with our savings. We’re encouraged to consume instead of save, to obey instead of question. Fiat currency is the lifeblood of a machine designed to keep us just busy enough to never look up.

Finding the Lens

Then came Bitcoin. Not just as a currency, but as a question: What if everything we believed about money was wrong? That question was the first crack in the glass. I didn’t find Bitcoin by accident—I found it because something inside me was already searching.

Bitcoin is more than code. It’s a filter for truth. The more I studied it, the more it rewired how I thought—not just about money, but about freedom, power, and responsibility. Putting on the Bitcoin lens wasn’t comfortable, but it was real.

Looking Through the Lens

Through the Bitcoin lens, money becomes something entirely different—finite, incorruptible, earned. It reframes government as something that should serve, not rule. It exposes the lie that central banks must exist to “stabilize” markets.

It shows that energy isn’t wasted when it’s securing truth. Proof of work becomes a metaphor for life itself—effort, persistence, resilience. Time preference shifts. Suddenly, you’re thinking in decades, not paychecks. You stop asking, "What can I get now?" and start asking, "What legacy am I building?"

Even human potential looks different. We’re no longer cogs in a debt machine. We’re sovereign nodes in a decentralized world, capable of building something better—together.

The Cost of Clarity

But seeing clearly comes at a price. Once you start to question one system, you end up questioning them all. You may find yourself alone in conversations, speaking a language others haven’t learned yet. The rabbit hole is deep and often lonely.

But it’s also liberating. You begin to connect dots—history, economics, psychology, control. And with every new insight, you realize that ignorance was never bliss. It was bondage.

Inviting Others to Look

If you’re reading this and something stirs inside you, follow it. Ask the questions you’ve been taught to ignore. Try on the lens. Challenge the assumptions. Because once you’ve seen the truth, you’ll never trade it back for comfort.

Bitcoin is not just money. It’s a mirror. It shows us who we are and what we tolerate. But more importantly, it shows us what we could become.

The World After the Lens

The fog is lifting. The illusion is cracking. And on the other side of the lens, something beautiful is waiting: a future not built on lies, but on code, consensus, and courage.

Tick tock, next block.

Would Socrates Have Used Social Media? A Thought Experiment.

Imagining that it's 2025, Socrates, in the modern-day café, has opened his laptop. He just got greeted on Instagram with "You have 1 new follower!" and looks intrigued. Probably not the type to run away from the prospect of easily exploring the "new" digital world, or for that matter, a seeker of wisdom using the Socratic method of questioning everything. But would Socrates-the ultimate skeptic and conversationalist-actually use social media? Let's enter this thought experiment.

First poking at the obvious, Socrates was not the type who cared much for writing anyway. In fact, it is famously said that there exists no authentic record of his own writings. Whatever we know of him comes down to the hearsay of his pupils, notably Plato. Socrates was all about intellectual dialogue face to face-the debates in public lugares; challenging assumptions; dissecting thoroughly even the unlovable and uncomfortable thoughts. Would he engage in Twitter threads, Facebook debates, or TikTok rants? Well, that would be far-fetched. 

The Socratic Method: Online Style

Essentially, the Socratic method involves asking questions that invite people to challenge ideas and to think again. So, it sounds very similar to online debates, does it not? After all, social media is an arena where everyone can give their opinion—and sometimes, those opinions might need a little poke and prod. Picture Socrates diving into Twitter discussions, replying to tweets with the simple yet certain rebuttal, "But why?" That would surely lead to some terribly amusing yet slightly cumbersome exchanges. Nevertheless, Socrates wouldn't be there to earn likes or retweets. He'd be there to get to the truth even if that meant grinding the nerves of everyone involved.

It isn't hard to imagine how much trouble for Socrates it would be to portray an Agitator in the online space to inspire critical thinking among users. For a social media platform, one is given an opportunity to share their views, close, say the Agora (the marketplace) in Ancient Athens. Socrates would in all probability make those platforms as an arena to question people's presuppositions or assume things. Things like, "What is the real worth of a 'like?'" or "What does it mean to be really heard with a tweet of 280 characters?" It would take an endlessly flowing challenge to the received wisdom, with the assurance that Socrates had a huge number of followers on social media because let us be true, his philosophy spells intrigue. 

The Problems With Social Media That Socrates Would Have Hated

But Socrates would certainly never ignore any problem with social media. Seeing how many times online discussions reduce to three-second arguments or how misinformation spreads like wildfire, he would probably have spent a great deal of time shaking his head in disappointment. He had really believed in the quality of discourse. For him, seeing people argue in sound bites or tweet memes highlighting ever flimsy details of a complex issue would, in all regards, make him cringe. Remember, Socrates was all for refining ideas and actually trying to reach proper understanding and not just to score a wing for an argument or chase followers.

Besides that, Socrates probably wouldn't have appreciated social media's obsession with self-promotion. He would have turned to a scroll of curated Instagram posts, each showing candidates at their Pops-the-Root Beer moment and asked, "Is this really living?" He might have thought that the constant scramble for likes and followers alludes to the more serious pursuit of wisdom. 

Had He Been Living, Would He Have Been On Facebook?

Here's another interesting thought: Would Socrates have been on Facebook? He certainly had an affinity for conversation - perhaps he could have joined a few philosophical groups to get the dialogue going. But knowing how rapidly Facebook can swoosh into cat videos, rants about political parties, and unsolicited opinions on pineapple pizzas, Socrates may likely have been out of there before long. He would probably value spaces that allow for a deep exploration of ideas, rather than mere soundbites shared with a click of a button. 

Conclusion: Socrates will throw himself amidst the noise of the digital world.

The real reason, you say? Not really to care about any followers or content going viral. His social media would have been a podium for questioning thought, challenging, and search for the truth; in a word, a philosophic-style podcast with plenty of trolling bait. Like everything else, he would have approached it with caution-scrutinizing the usefulness of this instrument and never allowing himself to get twisted and turned by any of the bull it would have undoubtedly presented.

In the end, it is less about whether or not Socrates would have engaged with social media and more about whether we would engage with these social sites as avenues of real conversation, rather than simply seeking the next hit of dopamine in our feeds. Long live Socrates, who probably would just ask us to log off every once or twice, look around, and go, "Is this the best way to spend our time?"

The Rules of a Lie

There is a hidden force that we seldom acknowledge. It is subtle, yet all-encompassing. It sways, bends, and reshapes the very fabric of our understanding. It is not a force of nature, nor is it divine—it is far simpler. It is the **lie**, and more often than not, we are ensnared by it without even realizing.

In a world where falsehood wears the mask of truth, how does one begin to unravel the deception? The truth, by its nature, is whole and complete. Yet, when something is added to it or stripped away, what remains is not truth—it is a lie. And in this lie, we unknowingly live.

But what happens when the lie becomes the norm?

The answer lies in the practices we follow, the traditions we hold dear, and the beliefs we protect. We assume these customs, ideas, and perceptions are truth, for they have been passed down, etched into the core of our beings. They tell us who we are, what to believe, and how to act. But what if they are built on nothing more than well-disguised falsehoods?

A Whisper in the Shadows:

Lies are never born in the open. They start as whispers in the shadows, shaping themselves slowly over time, merging with our realities until we can no longer distinguish them from the truth. When these lies spread far enough, they become indistinguishable from the very air we breathe. You don’t see it. You don’t question it. You just live it.

Religious rituals, social norms, cultural expectations—what if they have all, in some way, been touched by this unseen force? Not deliberately, but by the simple passage of time, as truth was chipped away, molded, reshaped—until what remains is a distorted reflection of what once was.

The lie now stands tall, accepted by the masses, defended by those who do not know they have fallen into its embrace. And here lies the greatest irony: **the lie does not need to convince you it is the truth**. It only needs you to believe it enough that you never seek the truth at all.

---

The Unknowable Path

The majority of the world unknowingly walks this path, unaware that they have inherited false practices and beliefs that are far removed from their origins. They perform them with devotion, with faith, with pride, thinking they are righteous. They do not ask questions. Why would they? When something has become so deeply embedded in one’s identity, challenging it feels like an assault on reality itself.

But every lie, no matter how grand, is fragile. It rests on a delicate balance of silence and repetition. It fears scrutiny, for scrutiny is the seed of truth. And truth, no matter how buried, always seeks to rise.

In ancient times, the prophets—those rare souls who dared to see through the veil—stood against these deceptions. They spoke of a singular truth while the masses clung to their comforting lies. **Abraham** destroyed the idols worshipped by his people, not because he sought chaos, but because he saw through the veil of falsehood. **Moses** stood before a mighty Pharaoh, who built an empire on lies and enslaved minds just as much as bodies.

Each time, the truth was not what the people expected. It was uncomfortable. It was alien. But it was **real**.

---

A Silent Majority, An Eternal Truth

Today, the lie persists in different forms, but the principle remains the same. Many of us unknowingly follow rituals, customs, and beliefs that have deviated from their original essence. They may have begun as truths, but over time, through additions, subtractions, and misinterpretations, they have become something else entirely. Yet, they are followed with fervor, defended with conviction.

The truth, however, is timeless. It is not altered by the passage of years or the whims of men. It does not bend under the weight of time. It simply **is**. But in a world of lies, **truth becomes the rebel**, the outcast, the uncomfortable whisper that dares to challenge the echo of conformity.

And herein lies the paradox: in a world that celebrates falsehood, truth becomes the most dangerous force of all.

---

The Rules of a Lie: Unveiling the Hidden

1. The first rule of a lie is simple: **it must remain hidden**. Lies thrive in the dark, away from questioning eyes. They wrap themselves in layers of complexity, disguising themselves as truth. But the moment the lie is exposed to light, it begins to wither.

2. The second rule is that **lies multiply**. To cover one falsehood, you must create another. The web grows thicker, and soon, the lie takes on a life of its own. It spreads, it infects, and it alters the minds of those who accept it without question.

3. The third rule: **lies lack permanence**. While they may dominate the present, time wears

them down. Truth is patient, for it knows it needs no defense. Lies, however, crumble under the weight of investigation, of curiosity, of those brave enough to seek what is real.

---

The Final Revelation: The Truth Seeker

In the end, to seek the truth in a world built on lies is not just an intellectual endeavor—it is a rebellion. It is the act of standing against the current, of questioning the unquestionable. It is a journey not for the faint of heart, for the truth, while liberating, often comes at a cost.

But in a world of false practices, where so many unknowingly walk in darkness, **the truth becomes a light**—small at first, but growing stronger with each lie that is unraveled. To follow this light is to see the world as it truly is, not as it has been constructed to appear.

So, in a world full of lies, **what will truth be considered?**

Perhaps, it will be seen as something strange, something dangerous, something radical. But to those who seek it, truth will be the only thing worth finding.

Think or Sink: Why Developing Critical Thinking Is Your Best Investment

In a world drowning in information, learning to think clearly might just be your life raft. We live amidst a relentless storm of headlines, opinions, and narratives—all competing for our attention and trust. Without the ability to think critically, we're left vulnerable, drifting wherever the current takes us. But there's another way.

The Critical Gap

When we rely solely on external "experts" or mainstream sources, we outsource our understanding to others who may have hidden agendas or biases. I learned this firsthand when I dove into Bitcoin. What mainstream narratives painted as a risky gamble, I saw differently by digging deeper. It became clear that true understanding only emerges when you're willing to ask questions, challenge assumptions, and verify facts independently.

Bitcoin: Your Gateway to Clear Thinking

Exploring Bitcoin isn't just about finance—it's a powerful introduction to critical thinking. Bitcoin demands that you question established narratives, verify information yourself, and reject blind faith. Its fundamental mantra—"Don't trust, verify"—is a guiding principle anyone can apply beyond finance, into politics, health, or daily decision-making.

Escaping the Herd Mentality

History is littered with the wreckage of groupthink—housing bubbles, dot-com crashes, financial meltdowns. Each catastrophe was fueled by collective blindness. Those who thrived were individuals who trusted their analysis over the noise. Critical thinking isn't just about knowing what to trust; it's about knowing when and how to break free from collective illusions.

First Principles Thinking: The Master Key

Imagine dismantling a complex puzzle down to its simplest pieces, then rebuilding it from scratch—that's first-principles thinking. Elon Musk leveraged this method to revolutionize industries from space travel to electric vehicles, rejecting conventional wisdom in favor of foundational truths. Applying first principles to Bitcoin or finance means asking:

"What is money at its core?"

"What truly gives something value?"

By returning to these fundamental questions, you'll find clarity amidst confusion. Bitcoin, for example, emerges naturally as sound money due to its scarcity, decentralization, and transparency—principles deeply rooted in basic truths.

Sharpen Your Mind: Actionable Steps

Developing critical thinking is like building a muscle—it takes consistent effort:

Question everything—especially your own beliefs.

Diversify your sources; challenge your views with opposing ideas.

Regularly reflect: are these thoughts genuinely yours?

Stay mentally flexible; embrace being wrong as a growth opportunity.

Your Future Depends on It

Critical thinking isn't just an intellectual exercise; it's your ultimate personal currency, empowering you to navigate complexity with confidence. In an uncertain future, those who sharpen their minds today will lead tomorrow.

The world won't slow down. Will you choose to drift along—or take control?

Think or sink—the choice is yours.

The Years That Never Were — And the Truth That Was Buried

What if the biggest lie wasn’t about time—but about truth?

Some believe that nearly 300 years of history never happened.

It’s called the Phantom Time Hypothesis—a fringe but fascinating theory that claims the early Middle Ages were forged by emperors who wanted to rewrite time itself. According to this idea, the years between AD 614 and 911 were fabricated so rulers like Otto III and the Pope could claim they were living in the year 1000—fulfilling prophecies and forging legacies.

Most historians dismiss it. And maybe they’re right.

But it poses a deeper question:

> What if history was written not to preserve truth—but to erase it?

And what if the erasure wasn’t just a European fantasy?

But a reality that began the moment the Prophet of Islam (Peace and Blessings be upon him and his Purified Household) departed this world.

Islam After the Prophet: The Real Phantom Time

The Messenger of Allah didn’t just leave behind scripture—

He left behind a legacy. A clear succession. A declaration made at Ghadir Khumm, witnessed by tens of thousands:

“Of whomsoever I am the Mawla, Ali is his Mawla.”

But while the Prophet’s body lay unburied…

another gathering took place.

Saqifah.

And from there, Islam was rewritten—not by revelation, but by committee.

The Umayyads and Abbasids understood a dangerous truth:

Controlling the past means owning the present.

So they authored a version of Islam that served thrones—not souls.

---

Phantom Time vs. Phantom Religion

The Phantom Time Hypothesis claims years were invented.

But early Islamic history saw something even more subtle—and more sinister:

Missing events. Missing sermons. Missing voices.

The event of Ghadir, buried beneath silence.

The attack on the house of Fatima Zahra (SA), erased from public memory.

The usurpation of Imam Ali’s (AS) right, reduced to political debate.

And figures like Abu Huraira, who emerged from obscurity to become prolific narrators—conveniently shaping doctrine in favor of power.

This wasn’t history evolving.

It was history being engineered.

---

“Sahih” According to Whom?

The six “authentic” books of Sunni Islam were compiled generations later—

not by witnesses of revelation, but by men in courts where the Ahl al-Bayt (AS) were hunted.

Hadith weren’t authenticated by the Prophet’s family.

They were filtered by those aligned with power.

Meanwhile, narrations from Imam Jafar al-Sadiq (AS) or Imam Baqir (AS)—direct heirs of Prophetic knowledge—were marginalized, if not outright erased.

Lady Fatima (SA) was silenced.

Imam Ali (AS) was called “fourth.”

The martyrs of Karbala were turned into a seasonal ritual—

their revolution flattened to folklore.

---

But Shia Islam Remembered

While empires distorted, Shia Islam preserved.

Through chains of narration built on trust.

Through scholars who lived in exile.

Through poetry whispered in the dark.

Through mothers who passed down the names of the Infallibles when books were burned.

Shia Islam didn’t survive because it was convenient.

It survived because it was true.

Because truth, even buried, knows how to rise.

---

If 300 Years Could Be Faked by the west…

Why is it unthinkable that Islamic dynasties faked a version of religion to justify their rule?

If rulers could fabricate time to crown themselves kings,

why wouldn’t caliphs fabricate hadith to crown themselves righteous?

If people believe Charlemagne never existed,

why not question the erasure of Ghadir?

Why not question a version of Islam that elevates Muawiyah…

but silences Fatima?

That celebrates conquest…

but forgets Karbala?

---

The Truth Still Echoes

History was rewritten.

But not by God.

And now, centuries later—

it is being rewritten again.

Not by kings. Not by clerics.

But by seekers.

By hearts that feel the fracture between politics and purity.

By voices that say:

> We remember.

We resist.

We return.
