Bitcoin is good but it can still not be used for daily life needs and yes many people using fiat are mentally ill but so are bitcoin users

most people who use Fiat don't see technological innovations moving at speed into their lives very much, id have a guess at about 99% possibly higher
Lol, nice, just read the other thread

We can't have a real demographic. What do you mean by fiat? everyone uses fiat. Who the hell goes through life without using fiat money? except pioneers like Andreas.

Just because they don't acknowledge bitcoin, does not make them Mentally ill By what standard, maybe not mentally ill but definately not paying any attention to whats actually happening in life. These people cost society.

I don't know if Fiat users are mentall ill, maybe institutionalized is a better politically correct term.
There's inherently wrong with the Fiat system, it is what it is, people use it, transact with it, without knowing whether it's backed by anything or if there's a paradigm shift to a digital currency that coming sooner than they'd like.
If say the President of the USA or the Fed Chairman were to say the US dollar is being supplanted in 10-15 years, start hoarding some digital currency, before all fiat currency collapses, you'd know every US citizen would start going to Bitcoin.org to find out more about BTC and Crypto. Start building up stashes after going on Coinbase and Circle.
That said, this is all people know, so I can't say that's they're "Mentally Ill", if this is what people truly believe and all they know about money. It'll take something truly disastrous to wake people up like a crashing dollar, and see what the future brings, and to eventually jump on board before it's too late.

one could easily say that bitcoin makes you mentally ill with all these wild price fluctuations too.

Well, I'd think there are more mentally ill Fiat users than Bitcoin users, if you're talking about raw numbers. If you talk about percentages... Well... It's a stupid discussion anyway, not worth the space on this board.

I don't know if Fiat users are mentall ill, maybe institutionalized is a better politically correct term. Institutionalized is just a clever euphemism for indoctrinated. This is abusing language to avoid facing the obvious ethical horror of socially engineering children during formative years. You have been lied to your whole life, by people who have been lied to their entire lives, and so on, generation after generation, because of a continued failing of basic ethics.

Yes, that could be a better term for it, Indoctrination. Generations upon generations being told what is "money" and trust the central authorities in place. If you're not a self thinker, and believe everything that's written and spoken on the boob tube, then sure this can be dangerous and unexpected when something like Greece happens. If you can form your ideas, and see the big picture, then nothing that will occur soon should come as a shock, when the mighty Fiat finally succumbs...
