Seems like the whole world is on the way to zero

"Power resides where men believe it resides." -Lord Varys, the Spider



Politics is power.
Science is power too.
Weapons are power.
Money is power.
Religion is power.

Think about all these.

Depending on the situation every single one of them can be lethal. See how we listen to the scientists (or so called "scientists") during the pandemic, before covid19 not as many people gave a shit about the doctors unless they the ones that became sick. Now healthy or not, people listen to the doctors especially when they speak about covid19.

Then the war started in Ukraine. People started to listen to the politicians.

Inflation is rising? It is time to listen to the bankers.

Getting old? Religious people come to your aid and show you "the way".

And this goes on and on...

Like the popular wise saying, experience is the best teacher. Most of us learn to be very careful after our first terrible experience. To me, being on social media means you are not longer a kid and you don't need to be told about scammers. Although creating awareness can reduce scam as you proclaim but self caution is the best. And besides not all strangers mean harm. I'm sure in one way or another, we all have met new people online and transacting without fear.

I am seem to be very jobless.
From the look of things around my ambient and how my neighbours view me and based on rumours, some persons are of the thoughts that am just one jobless guy within the neighborhood who is always either seen operating one gadget sitting at our balcony.

Some are just of the opinion that I might just be involved in one of those scamming internet fraudsters and that's why am always seen pressing and operating my gadget without any concern of looking for a job that would take me out of the house on work days just like my other counterparts within my neighborhood that are graduates like me. Although I have an office work which needs my presence just ones or twice a month as I could just stay at home and do the rest job from my laptop.

I try to manage my time into Bitcoin and my office job but as someone that lives an aloof life, as am of a well reserved lifestyle. So many persons have nothing of any idea about me and my private life within my neighborhood. And I believe it's due to this that they are of the opinion, assumptions and thoughts that am one jobless or internet scammer within the neighborhood as am always seen doing nothing but just with operating of my gadget.

And I was wondering, are there other people like me who are facing such mistaken thoughts and view from persons around their neighborhood towards them and how are they handling it.
