Crypto is what they fear most. Controlling the currency is the source of all their power. They will do everything they can to stop it and discourage you from adopting it. Yes, buy gold and silver. They'd never confiscate that or make it illegal to trade. Or inflate it.
And if the lights go out and the whole economy collapses, you'll be a lot better off with food, ammo, meds, and toilet paper than gold when it comes to trading in the apocalypse. Because that's what you'll be trading your gold for. At a huge lost.
It's unbelievable to me this board thinks crypto is digital fiat that the government endorses. It's value comes from the fact the government or banks can't control it and that it can be anonymous and sent anywhere from anyone to anyone instantly. It's cuts out the middlemen.
As much as we bitch about social media, that's what makes this possible and why they are desperately trying to lock it all down. Politicians and celebrities have never had to face criticism like this. This is novel to history.
It shows they completely expect the media to do as their told without question. He's angry because he expected no pushback at all. A skilled propagandist would have have kept a poker face and just spun up a non-answer. This arrogant ass lost his composure and exposed the whole operation.
That step is entirely unnecessary if the goal is to cover it up. They could have just ignored OP and no one would be the wiser. The paper trail is lot more extensive than county records that can be sealed by a local department anyway I would think. Maybe they lost people to the jab.
If the internet goes down permanently, everything will collapse. Including your fiat and your gold and silver and your stocks and the whole supply chain. It's true, cryptocurrency won't work in a primitive dark age society, but who cares at that point. It is the only way we can get away from central banks and government controlled currency. Shit on it all you want, it's the future if we have one.
Value is subjective. That fiat can be burned doesn't give it value. A twig on the ground has more utility in that regard. Crypto's intrinsic value is that it is safe from government and can be used anywhere in the world regardless of borders instantaneously without a middle man. There has never been a currency that offered so much freedom. What is your alternative? Gold? The government can and has confiscated that in the past. They can't confiscate the blockchain.
It's not on the internet, it's on the blockchain. They can't shut it down. And if all the electricity goes out, we're fucked anyway. Good luck trying to exchange gold or silver with a population that would take a candy bar over 10oz of silver. In SHTF situation, you'd be better off stockpiling food, ammo, meds, and apparently toilet paper.
I think it is number 3. The greatest evils in this world have always been done by people who thought they were the good guys. Hitler truly believed he was trying to save the world from the inevitable collapse of capitalism as Marx foretold. The road to hell is paved with good intentions. Evil for the sake of evil is a rare thing.
Modern country is teeny bop music for teenage girls at this point. That's the only audience I can figure for it. All the young redneck men are blasting fucking rap out of their trucks in my experience. Go figure. That said, there are lots of amazing new artists in the indie/internet country scene right now that make me excited for the genre. Despite what the radio and CMT have done to country music.
Anyone got any suggestions for sources on this? On adrenochrome that is. I first heard of it in Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas. It's like the fabled fountain of youth... These people may look younger, but are they living longer? Could this just be decades of plastic surgery stretched to the breaking point plus bad/good pictures?
