Here's one for the military aviation geeks.
Seeing as I'm blathering about Spitfires, here's a free mythbuster for Bluesky
The little letter after the Spitfire mark designation - e.g. Spitfire Vb, Spitfire XVIe - what does it mean?
There is a widespread misconception that it relates to armament configuration, and *only* armament config...

Women protesters are "wine moms".
Student protesters are "ANTIFA".
Protesters of color are "thugs."
The only legitimate protester is a divorced father with no visitation rights, three domestic violence convictions, four AR-15s and a MAGA hat, storming Congress over something he read on Stormfront.

This is essential: a democracy *must* know who is paying its politicians and where that money is coming from.
Cryptocurrency is *designed* to make that impossible.
The whole point is to lift payments outside the scrutiny of the state.
