What's an opinion you have that most of your Farcaster followers (or, your crypto circles generally) would disagree with?

Strongly believe that all institutions are mirages. 

The truth is nuanced and nuance doesn’t appeal to the masses. Institutions seek to attract the maximum number of people, so are ALWAYS built on fake narratives and lies.

This is why crypto is the most important technology of our lifetime.

The counter to this that we always create new institutions to replace old ones no matter how hard we try to think institutions are an infra problem.

Institutions are requirement for the human psyche, it’s more about correct discretion to create the right ones.

That ain't a belief - that's reality. 

Institutions are aggregations of individuals. 

"McDonalds" can't ride a bike, but it can file a tax return. 

We humans get it twisted.

given the complexities of reforming institutions from the top down, the organic, bottom-up evolution enabled by crypto could serve as that nuanced alternative we seek.

“The truth is nuanced and nuance doesn’t appeal to the masses”. love this - so true!
