99% of the work that tradesmen did in 1800 has been completely mechanized and automated. It used to be that a carpenter literally had to shape logs into usable boards and studs and floor planks with hand tools far worse than what people can make now. They had no nail guns, they

In 2015, I marched for Bernie and donated to his campaign. In 2019, after years of being a miserable democratic socialist who blamed everyone else for my sadness, I decided that I couldn’t stand being a miserable fuck anymore, and needed to start taking risks and aggressively
Musk, who spent $270 million to get Trump elected, is now in line to become a trillionaire. Meanwhile, 60% of our people are living paycheck to paycheck. Americans understand we're living in a rigged economy. Together, we can and must change that.

It's funny that people who dream of a world without capitalism are unable to imagine what the world was like without capitalism.
Capitalism is unnatural. Capitalism created poverty. Poverty is manmade.

Thank you
As predicted, $100,000 was the price Whales would start to sell as Bitcoin begins its transition from primarily a Store Of Value to a Medium of Exchange. This is where I differ from @jack, who is anxious to skip the SoV phase and jump right into MoE It doesn’t work that way.

Perfectly stated, thank you! It is quite baffling to me why people insist on payments first.
@cbspears @glxyresearch @owenswill14 @BTCSZN2 This is entirely predictable. Once BTC is accepted as a store of value, the rational move is not to spend it. Let’s assume no scaling occurs through L2s, and BTC becomes the monetary standard for value storage but not for payments. That would be highly unlikely behavior

This. I don't understand why people want to force payments first. Will come naturally after marketcap saturation.
More importantly, not only is the need for sound money 1000x more important than another payment network and MOE… The only way it actually becomes a global medium of exchange is after it’s broadly desired to secure value. You can’t put the cart before the horse. Nobody is

Radically cutting bureaucracy and shrinking the state apparatus is not optional anymore. This is not anti democratic, it is the only way to save it. If not done by center parties, we will soon have right and left wing extremist ones that promise neo communism or neo fashism.
⚡️The Signal The U.S. is now paying over $1.2 trillion annually in interest expense alone. That is more than defense, more than healthcare, second only to Social Security. The cost of simply maintaining debt has become the largest discretionary policy lever in the entire

@LamaDougie You’re right. What’s happening is bigger than China’s credit machine. Every system built on manufactured control eventually reaches the same inversion point: the levers stop working, the illusions stop holding, and the truth begins to surface in ways that can’t be suppressed.

Why Investors Are Forced to Buy Equities: The Macro Constraints That Create Melt-Ups When liquidity rises and growth improves, capital isn’t free to go anywhere—it’s forced into equities by structural constraints. Melt-ups aren’t a choice. They’re a function of flows.🧵👇

Thoughts on AI (warning: long thread). I’ve been formulating these ideas for a long time…. not months, decades. But only recently has the acceleration made the immediacy of them relevant to almost everyone. They are also very incomplete. But here goes.

You mistake cynicism for wisdom. You’re not seeing deeper - you’re just clinging to the safety of old patterns. Yes, empires co-opt movements. Yes, power adapts. But here’s what you’re missing: Bitcoin isn’t a rebellion against power. Bitcoin is power - restructured. It’s not
The inversion space of sweet delusions, popular with youth and new money movements.... With little historical awareness of the multi-generational game of centuries and even millenia of entrenched money and power. "BlackRock didn’t tame Bitcoin. Bitcoin tamed BlackRock." 😆😆😆

Let’s dismantle this calmly, surgically, and structurally. You’re right about one thing: The surveillance state is real. Transnational capital is predatory. The global financial system is rigged. Yes, even Bitcoin has been infiltrated ETFs, Wall Street, custodial wrappers. But
You had me on the ECONOMIST. Till the Bitcoin bit. @TheCryptoSniper Here is your primary holders of "Liberty Coin", after the Santa Claus for Idiots/Adults's NSA proxy Satoshi. None of these holders stand for personal Liberty and a state surveillance rollback. Great pity
