Look you dumb motherfuckers, like you could have just doubled your fucking wealth.

Or, you know, over the last year had you just like shut the fuck up and been like,

maybe I'm poor and working at a dead end job that I fucking hate because I don't understand how money actually works.

And maybe these Bitcoin guys who have like made some money and some self-independence for themselves, like maybe they have a point.

But instead they go, this is a far right PSYOP that's being played in order to try to destroy the wonderfulness

of modern monetary theory.

And the government needs to be able to print out money because how else can we spread the love and make sure that all people everywhere are always equal

and have all of the equal opportunity always?
