How long is it going to take Americans to realize that their elites do not play by the same set of rules as everyone else? It’s getting tiresome listening to people talk about current events like we didn’t just all live through the last 4 years of the most cleptocratic behavior of our lifetime. Wake up! Seriously.
I have no solutions to offer, but I’m sick of this repetitive public shock. I’d rather do anything else than witness these feckless conversations repeat themselves over, and over again.
I guess I’d like us all to disconnect from it a bit and find the funny in it. Maybe if we could all take a break from our collective outrage and focus on one thing we might get somewhere.
- vmception 5y agoSorry what shock? Seeing someone calculate the number or marketcap change is fun, like a leaderboard.
- hacknat 5y agoThere are many people expressing anger and outrage at his manipulative tweets. :shrugs:
- vmception 5y agoAh okay. When you were talking about kleptocracy and playing by different rules, manipulation only applies to the securities market in some small circumstances that can be mitigated with tiny tiny disclaimers. I personally have completely aligned expectations for what occurs in markets without any investor or consumer protection. Its the “markets” fault for deriving confidence from one person. If Michael Saylor wanted to buy the dip at above market prices, he can. If $49,300 is not a price many people really want to buy a lot of bitcoin at, then so be it. Idk its easy for me to just laugh and move on. To everyone else, don’t trade on leverage maybe?
