    P.M.M. 04: Plebs Maintaining Morale

    P.M.M. 04: Plebs Maintaining Morale

    What does this episode of P.M.M. stand for?
    Parallel-Economies Meshtadels and Micro-Communities
    Picturesque vs Modern architectural Monstrosities.
    Psychological Warfare, Maintaining Morale, and Mental Resilience.


    What’s been going on with the Meshtadel?
    Karl from Karl’s Korner posed the question in the Meshtadel, "What do you say to someone who claims they're happy to pay their fair share of taxes?" Is participating in the fiat system moral, especially considering taxes fund wars and are used punitively by the forces of evil to control and regulate? Is gaming the system moral while dismantling it, or should one opt out entirely? These same little tyrants who use taxes as a system of control also use religion used as a system of control, such as "Render unto Caesar what is Caesar's."


    Springtime planting brings gardening and new life, particularly lambs and chicks.


    How did you spend the HalFinning? For me (Jon), it was with the Noderunners, Meshtadel, and the Pleb Miner Mafia groups. We watched as the transactions rolled in


    Parallel-Economies Meshtadels and Micro-Communities (Bert and Gurtis conversation)

    Bert and Gurtis discuss building parallel economies on Bitcoin and trading within Meshtadels as crucial strategies for establishing resilient, independent networks or intentiaonal communities. fostering strong, small communities centered on family values and emphasizes sourcing healthy, sustainable food all while trading on a Bitcoin standard. While countries like the Netherlands produce large quantities of food, the intensive farming cycle dependent on petro-chemicals is depleting the soil, highlighting the need for more permaculture and regenerative agriculture-based practices. Gurtis makes the point that during societal collapse, it's impractical to attempt to save everyone; instead, it's important to prepare for people arriving at these parallel economies, whether they bring positive or negative intentions.


    Picturesque vs Modern architectural Monstrosities.

    Urban Hacker examines modern architecture from the lens that it is demoralizing, lacking the engagement that video games and movies create as movies and video games must please their audiences to make a profit. Art should reflect the people, and both art and architecture should align with the area, rather than erecting edifices to the state or the designer, without considering the local context. The Dune movie, for instance, offers architecture that thoughtfully integrates into its setting. In contrast, Le Corbusier's designs were criticized as large, unattractive structures that disregard local nuances.


    Psychological Warfare, Maintaining Morale, and Mental Resilience.
    The People Aren't As Retarded As They Seem by Charles-François-Bienvenu Myriel

    Continuing in the spirit of his previous articles on demoralization - Ungovernable Misfits staff writer Charles Myriel presents a compelling argument that Misfits as well as normies are engaged in a battle between good and evil. We must be aware of narratives controlled by global elite and facilitated by their lap-dog media goonie, religious cults of personality, and pseudo-intellectuals. These forces attempt to shape, control, or ‘nudge’ society's thinking, particularly in the context of mUhCoViDNaruTive, where censorship and manipulation were used to control dissent. Despite these challenges, there is a call to recognize the victories of resisting oppressive control and maintaining a positive outlook. Charles equips us with resolve to resist demoralization and offering alternatives that uplift our spirit. Our should inherently desire freedom. This article is a rallying cry to stay optimistic, find like-minded Meshtadelians, and avoid surrendering to despair, as each person has the potential to influence positive change in the resistance movement to global slavery.

    #FREESAMOURAI

    On Wednesday, April 24th SamouraiWallet and Tdev were arrested by authorities for "running" a "Money Transmitter Business" and conspiracy to commit "money laundering". These are b******t charges and a great example of manipulating the "rules of the game" to catch any fish in your net.

    Samourai Wallet is not a "MTB". They never custody users funds.

    Samourai Wallet did not conspire to commit "money laundering". Users of Samourai Wallet may commit what the state deems "money laundering", but Samourai Wallet does not distinguish those users from others.


    If you are a Samourai Wallet user and you were connected to their node, then make sure you take slow calculated steps to regain access to your funds. Do not get baited by scammers in Telegram Chats. Pay attention to pinned comments in the telegram chat, that will help you.



    For everyone who want withdraw (not just restore) funds to another wallet, or, for example, you don't remember your passphrase:

    1) Close wallet
    2) Turn off internet
    3) Start wallet
    4) Wait for balance computation
    5) Create transaction, tap on send
    6) Transaction will be signed and you get a QR of signed tx (or if it big, you can copy hex of raw tx to clipboard by tap on copy icon in right up corner)
    7) Now you can simply past raw tx to any broadcast interface, for example https://mempool.space/tx/push, sparrow wallet etc.

    HOW TO RECOVER ACCESS TO YOUR SAMOURAI WALLET WITHIN SPARROW.

    TWO METHODS ARE SHOWN.

    1. USING THE SAMOURAI.TXT BACKUP FILE (PROTECTED BY THE WALLET PASSPHRASE)
    2. USING THE SAMOURAI SEED WORDS AND PASSPHRASE

    The Confab 01 - Diverter: How's Your Bitcoins Doing!?

    Welcome to the The Confab, the term derives from "confidential talk", which was commonly used in the Prohibition Era for meetings and conversations that took place in the smoky, rule-breaking speakeasies of that time.

    The informal, privacy focused and clandestine nature of Ungovernable Misfits lends itself to these discussions.  So, grab a seat and a stiff drink from the concealed bar, listen and revel in the conversation.

    (00:04:15) It's Been a While

    Diverter, how you doing, mate?
    Hey, what's up, man? Doing good. How about yourself?

    (00:05:30) The Great Malaise

    Diverter and Max outline "The Great Malaise" in the bitcoin space.  Users have fallen out of touch with the core principles on which the software built. Privacy was always niche, but at least the space at large was somewhat adversarial to the institutions and systems that abuse individuals every day.

    (00:09:17) The Pattern Has Fractured

    How did it get like this? In Chapter 5, Diverter asserts it's due to a fractioning pattern of users. Those who would have typically fallen away after the last bust cycle decided to stay, polluting the public square that should have been more ethos driven for the next bull run.

    (00:17:00) Then They Fight You...

    Chapter 6 is about the phrase "First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, then you win", which is used all the time by those in Bitcoin. But, with this fractured environment it seems as if they don't actually know what that looks like anymore OR they think they've already won with El Salvador Adoption, ETF filings and the acceptance of Bitcoin TM.

    (00:27:14) What Does The Fight ACTUALLY Look Like?

    So what does the fight actually look like? In Chapter 7, we have a great example in Roman Sterlingov and Diverter's recent attendance at the Finney Forum cemented that belief. When you have someone that is being charged and convicted based on no qualified evidence that is what the fight looks like. The State doesn't have to play by the rules and in fact makes the rules. So how will you navigate a game in which you, on the surface, have no way of winning?

    (00:32:28) Beware of the Zombies

    When it comes to punishment, the big bad government, as inefficient as it is, can actually move quite quickly when it wants to and it has the help of it's citizenry in these situations. Chapter 8 explains that much like witch burning or the scamdemic, people often mobilize on behalf of the government whether it be due to policy or acting as the jury. It comes in flavors such as grift, compliance, greed etc. that overall muddy the waters of principled disobedience.

    (00:42:26) Building Your Networks

    Well that's all well and good. So you're telling me that it's all intellectually rotten, compliance and greed driven zombies that will sacrifice the purpose of bitcoin in the name of NGU and government acceptance? No! In Chapter 9 the focus is on building your ONLINE networks and your OFFLINE networks. By strengthening these two domains you can begin to affect the zeitgeist and protect yourself against the censorship and attacks that are to come.

    (00:51:50) Pandora's Box Has Opened

    A Pandora's Box has been opened on the potential for censorship in Bitcoin. In the past, the act of censoring transactions on the bitcoin blockchain was an untenable thought, but as Chapter 10 outlines, the roadmap for how to accomplish such things has been shared widely as o

    Although the Globalists are a cabal of evil lizards, we have each other to confide in.



    Intro Music: Ungovernable Misfits – I Hate You



    What’s the Meshtadel been up to?
    The Meshtadel has been active, with developments including the launch of the SuperTestNet’s BitPac, which can be viewed on his Github. Fundamentals from the Rock Paper Bitcoin podcast discusses the Meshtadel on his pod and provides great value to both PMM and Meshtadel groups. Conversations are ongoing about industrial farming versus regenerative agriculture in the Pleb Miner Mafia chat. We compare and contrast Meshtadel related content on Stacker News and publications on Ungovernable Misfits. We like to think Stacker News provides great utility, but on UngovernableMisfits.com our stories are presented with superior aesthetics. Barnminer consults on mining with another Meshtadelian and Travis Bitckle creatively repurposes a T17 server housing into a birdhouse, which puts a little birdhouse, in our souls.



    Parent-led Motivation Mentorship
    Jon discusses he and Sarah’s experiences with homeschooling during COVID-era madness. Our strategy for navigating the public school system involves coaching, volunteering, and knowing the teachers and administrators. Max discusses his optimal school experience and what decisions will be made for his children’s education. We also explored Waldorf Schools, Montessori, Hillsdale Affiliate Schools, and homeschooling options, including various homeschool curriculums. Resources to enrich children's learning experiences include bookishadventure.com, which provides material and activities related to books. Max and Jon chat about passing along wisdom and encouraging kids to lean into their aptitudes. We discuss apprenticeships, craft guilds, and the view that school primarily teaches obedience, homeschooling on a homestead, and the unique needs of gifted children.

    Palantirs, Middle Earth, and Mordor
    They Brought the War to your Living Room by Charles-François-Bienvenu Myriel



    Good stories are timeless in nature and reveal universal truths. Fiction, through narratives like "Lord of the Rings," offers insights that remain relevant for all time, illustrating choices faced when confronting pure fucking evil. Charles Myriel points this out in Frodo and Gandalf's discussion in the Mines of Moria. The saying "Ignorance is Bliss" applies here, as facing harmful control involves risks and conflicts, especially against authorities and their enforcers who claim to be "just doing their job." The repercussions of challenging societal norms can include job loss due to vaccine mandates and being ostracized from the rest of society. Similarly, the common folk's defiance of government actions mirrors Frodo's quest, demonstrating how individuals can triumph over formidable global forces. Max is Legolas and Jon is Gimli, what LOTR character are you?
