@SAMURAISAM0@davidzmorris If you believe the halving cycle has anything to do with price discovery post ETF approval, you're behind. (Former) ETF inflows completely dwarfed the daily supply of mined coins. Now miners are putting their compute towards AI. 4 yr cycle is dead.
America’s ruling class has performed another miracle.
They took the most basic truths in human civilization ... crime needs punishment, borders need enforcement, schools should teach, welfare should be temporary, families matter, merit matters, and taxpayers should not be looted by professional parasites ... and somehow rebranded all of that as “extremism.”
Incredible work, really.
Apparently, a “compassionate” society is one where the violent repeat offender gets another chance, the victim gets a candlelight vigil, the taxpayer gets the bill, the schoolkid gets passed along illiterate, the fraudster gets a grant, the NGO gets another contract, the illegal alien gets services, and the working American gets told to shut up and be more inclusive.
What a beautiful system.
Soft justice did not stay in the courtroom. It metastasized. It became soft borders, soft schools, soft parenting, soft welfare, soft standards, soft men, and soft bureaucrats explaining why every obvious solution is “too harsh.”
Lock up predators? Cruel.
Deport illegals? Hateful.
End generational welfare? Lacking empathy.
Punish fraud? Complicated.
Restore merit? Problematic.
Teach kids to read? Probably colonialism by Tuesday.
A serious country protects the innocent from the guilty. A decaying country protects the guilty from consequences and makes the innocent finance the experiment.
That’s America’s real crisis.
Not poverty. Not “root causes.” Not another fake expert panel.
Consequences.
We stopped imposing them on the people destroying the country, so now the country imposes them on everyone else.

@DSA_Watch I'm an unaffiliated voter in district 1. CO has open primaries & I get both primary ballots. I am voting for Degette in the Dem primary because she is at least somewhat, "normal," and this is truly terrifying. At the very least, I hope @MikeJohnson does not seat these traitors.
@FinanceLancelot To his credit, the "business intelligence" software was a good move. It was just made better by his competitors and everyone forgot about him until he started posting AI memes of himself wearing orange.
@LauraLoomer Explains why the FBI and @FBIDirectorKash have called "The Homeland Plot," clickbait. If you aren't in contact with @sarahadams or aren't familiar with her work as a tracker, I would highly recommend becoming familiar.
@LauraLoomer@SohrabAhmari We so quickly forget that Vance was a proper lefty and hated Donald Trump in 2016. Sure, people are allowed to change their minds. However, his close ties with Thiel + co. and his ideas about a "post-republic" speaks volumes.
@JacobKinge When your identity is threatened, your brain does outrageous things to protect it. It perceives it as an imminent danger to the physical self, an actual death threat. Brains don't like that. That's why any appeal to identity is the most effective form of manipulation.
@DefiIgnas The last point proves the thesis of the 4-yr cycle being broken. Price discovery on-chain no longer exists, it is all financialized and paper. ETF flows completely dwarf any reduction in supply miners are constrained to.
@Mish_K_ 2) If they also understood the historical context - Yeshua was to the best of my understanding, a man who was not in favor of the Roman empire ruling Judea, so they crucified a political dissident and used our prophecy for Moshiach to invent one out of whole cloth as a cudgel.
@Mish_K_ 1) No, but if they knew more about Judaism, they would understand themselves to be idolators because G-d cannot be a man. In order to ease the pain of cognitive dissonance, they say G-d is done with the Jews.
