Replace the word "Home Computer" with "Bitcoin" and the journalism is 1:1. A class of people who literally cannot think into the future beyond, "LUNCH SOOOOOON".

This is what you're dealing with; this is the reality you are being boiled in!

Thanks to @_whitneywebb for publishing my 2-part series exploring the philosophy and political theory hiding in plain sight behind key figures shaping the policies of the Trump administration. Part 2 illustrates how these ideas are being implemented.

Memorize this. Bookmark this. Refer it to friends. Retweet it. Let the world know. The truth. The brilliance of Jeffrey Sachs. This is the score. The real deal. The bottom line. What the radical left proxy media sockpuppets never want you to hear or know. Verity. Brutal truth.

“This censorship activity killed people... Ironically, the reality is that the First Amendment, if it had actually been in place during the pandemic, would have saved lives.”
