🎯 EPISODE THESIS

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

Before, if you wanted to extract productive work from another human being, you had to physically dominate them. Today, they just print the money. Same crime. Different tool.

That's the thesis of Neil Flesher — philosopher, U.S. Army veteran, and author of Monetary Slavery. In this episode of BitCorner Podcast, Neil makes the most powerful case for Bitcoin you've probably never heard: not the economic case, not the price case — the moral case.

Fiat money isn't broken. It's evil. And Bitcoin isn't just a better investment — it's the first tool in history that lets you opt out of a system designed to extract everything you've ever earned.

This is the episode you send to the person who still doesn't get Bitcoin.
