Sometimes, Torque, it seems like you live in a terrifying echo chamber, and then sometimes, you clearly have a lot figured out.  That last post would figure in the latter category, by my way of thinking.
One does not necessarily exclude the other. More people are waking up, and there are multiple levels to this.

Yeah guys, I know my posts can sound pretty extreme and "preachy". They probably come out more that way on the screen than they sound in my head. I'll try to tone it down. I would welcome feedback and conversation.

It's just.... our world financial and economic problems on the horizon are so much worse than most would believe, and the game has been heavily rigged. It's just everyone is living it in slow motion at the micro level, so they don't notice what's really going on at the long term macro level. But I hear them grumbling about it... at work... at the grocery store... at the gas station. Everyone's standard of living and wealth is steadily declining, but they don't know why. They can't put their finger on it. Slowly over time, everyone is feeling its effects. And it's getting worse and worse.

I've taking the red pill. I see it now. But I know I don't have all the pieces or all the answers. Still learning.

You've got some accurate observations and I always appreciate hearing the validation of what I feel to be true as well.  What we don't know is how far the manipulation of markets will go. We can speculate that a global crash is imminent but no more than speculation of another manipulative move to prop it up and keep the people comfortable enough to not rebel.
I think it's a tough conversation to have because it requires one to imagine the changes that would take place on a personal level should such events occur. Not many are equipped to hold doomsday thoughts and still carry on in positive, progressive thinking.

when the question is about our financial investments, the answers are always difficult. I do not think that something that awaits us in October will benefit the Crypto-currency and users. If we survived the situation on August 1, then I think everything will be the same in the future. The main thing that Bitcoin was not dependent on the dollar.
