@Printer_Gobrrr Truly radicalizing

[Autism Capital 🧩 @AutismCapital]

Europe passed chat control. That means that they can now (officially/legally) read your every text, scan your every photo, read every email, examine every communication, build an entire inescapable 24/7 digitally surveilled profile on you, to arrest you for sending memes while they let grooming gang members roam free. It’s a dark day for Europe and a coming soon preview for America if we allow this to happen.

The Dutch 36% tax on unrealized gains is anti-prosperity, freedom & capitalism

It makes investment impossible for normal people...

Destroying the middle class & crushing the start-up ecosystem

It has not been passed, yet; we can still save this once-great mercantile nation! 🧵

Writing this from Amsterdam, only a brief walk away from the first stock market in the world. The Netherlands was once the richest country on the planet, dominating global trade in the 17th century. All thanks to free trade & financial innovation

A legacy that the Netherlands has moved steadily away from. It is no longer a leader in finance & sits on the laurels of its historically great past, much like most of Europe does. With extremely high taxes & socialist policies

This latest 36% tax on unrealized gains breaks the camel's back, making all investment quantitatively & mathematically unviable, especially given the volatility of modern markets. Forcing normal people to store their wealth in Fiat currency, something that is designed to lose its value over time due to inflation

That is why this law, in particular, strikes at the heart of how crypto is meant to provide an alternative to that terrible central banking system. That would no longer be possible under this new tax law, impoverishing the middle class, forcing them to remain slaves to the debt-based fiat system

Start-up founders would also have to pay 36% over each share of their company they sell, making being a founder in the Netherlands far more expensive & therefore unattractive

Adding insult to injury, this new tax does not apply to investment professionals like myself who own & manage investment companies. So this law locks normal people out of the investment world while still allowing the "elites" to do business...

Capitalism is great because it gives equal opportunity to all, allowing the best to rise to the top. That is what makes it meritocratic & generates massive prosperity for all. Instead, this proposed tax introduces massive resistance against upward mobility. It would prevent more people from rising out of poverty, keeping them poor!

A 36% tax on unrealized gains in the Netherlands spits in the face of its once-great, historically capitalist legacy. People are waking up & do not want to see what they have built here ruined by incompetent, socialist, & tone deaf politicians

We can turn this around, so help us spread this message far & wide. For the sake of prosperity, freedom & capitalism. We the people demand our full rights to life, liberty, & the pursuit of happiness! 🗽

Elon getting a bunch of otherwise disengaged young men interested in how the government works is an existential threat to the current system in ways that cannot be quantified.

One of the most important skills I see in successful (and good) people is to constantly reevaluate assumptions. They make predictions based on various inputs, some of them unknown, and reevaluate based on what they got right and wrong. They trust people not because they're always right--no one is--but because if you're constantly seeking the truth it's easy to identify those who are doing the same.

If you were confident that Donald J. Trump was going to lose, maybe you should question what else you "know" about him. Maybe the people who misled you about his electoral chances have misled you about other things.

In the words of Cormac McCarthy, "If the rule you followed brought you to this, of what use was the rule?"

41 years at this thing called life, and here is what I learned.. 👇🏼

Who you surround yourself with matters. You become like the company you keep. Choose wisely.

Rest and recharge when you need. Learn to say no without explanation.

Learn to live with less and love it. Simplicity is where it’s at.

All the love you give away to others, you deserve that too. Start giving some love to yourself.

If you’re a giver, learn to set healthy boundaries because takers never will.

Enjoy every moment. You never know when it’s going to be the last.

Learn acceptance for all things. Accept people as they are and adjust yourself accordingly.

Don’t try to control things. Letting go and flowing with the current of life is a lot easier than fighting it.

Love those who love you and let the rest fall away.

Most importantly, when life hands you chaos, give it a wink and smile..

You are worthy, you are deserving, and you are loved.

☑️ If you own any crypto, sell into Bitcoin

☑️ If you “own” Bitcoin in any exchange, get a hardware wallet and move it

☑️ Bitcoin in a hardware wallet, ignore the price until year end. It will be volatile. It will be scary

☑️ May the force be with you. You will be victorious.

@PeterDunhelm @BTCGandalf Yeah, I get the 'not your keys' part. I left that out of the equation. Just looking to get educated on to why the discount is so big
