some people call me a permabull and dunk on me when prices take a hit but little do they know how I played 2024 and what's about to come in Q1’25
i don't exaggerate but im quite optimistic about our bags for the next couple of months, especially ETH
remember back in august (ghost month) when everyone was doomposting it but we caught the bottom? think about how far we've come and these small pullbacks are nothing in comparison to it
seasonality wise, everything is aligning for an altszn ~ starting from jan end to mid march. every altcoin you hold will pump and you’ll think you’re a genius
your only goal is to not get liquidated and patiently hold onto your positions
good luck, have fun and happy holidays 💜
Think Trump is most bullish altcoins
Could see a lot of protocols chance it and do some financial crime expecting him to be lenient
This may end up being the crime cycle of cycles, we've been missing some good ol securities on the blockchain, maybe now is the time?
@antidoc Sapolsky also explains that it makes you more status attuned with higher test, meaning if you are lower on a given hierarchy you will react more strongly according to your perceived place. In that sense it can cause outwards burst of anger more easily
Mike Israetel doesn’t realize he’s telling on himself about steroids.
“You think of anger and violence 24/7.”
“You want to hurt people all the time”
Not true.
Maybe true if you’re 5’6 and bitter, but most people feel better and are friendlier, assuming e2 is in range.
Horny bruddas, heres some reminders when you get rich
1. Before deciding to spend a fuckload of money on women (especially if not Gf /spouse) -> jack off first to ensure post nut clarity
2. Before deciding to nut inside -> take profit on positions and keep 20-50% net worth in cash
3. Before spending money on hookers -> jack off to ensure post nut clarity
(Make sure they aint got STDs)
4. Instead of flexing wealth on gold diggers -> spend a little money on grooming/skincare to look more presentable (I promise this is more important)
@RnaudBertrand@SlowNewsDayShow@FallAnticipator Nah, your dislike and mistrust of him is leading you to infer things in an ungenerous way. The people pointing that out aren’t engaging in hero worship. I don’t know much about Thiel, have no reason to defend him, I’m just reacting to the video you posted.
@SlowNewsDayShow@FallAnticipator@martyrmade Exactly. There's an immensely unhealthy worship of billionaires... Some halfwits think they're somehow more on the side of the people than the government...
@RnaudBertrand@folreck He clearly means that as an entity that has a singular purpose, said entity was more functional at this goal before being exposed and having more bureaucracy. I don't think he's advocating for that set of process or lamenting about it
I'm more and more convinced that Peter Thiel is one of the most dangerous men in the world.
Listen to this 👇x.com/joshwalkos/sta…
He says that "the crazy stuff" done by the CIA and other agencies stops once it's exposed and processes are formalized. And the conclusion he seems to be drawing is that the problem absolutely isn't them doing the "crazy stuff"... the problem is when it gets exposed.
For instance, he laments that the torture of the inmates in Guantanamo got revealed because it led to the "inmates and defense lawyers running the asylum", which meant in his view that "you were way safer as a Muslim terrorist in Guantanamo than a suspected cop killer in Manhattan" because "there's still an informal process in Manhattan, if you're a suspected cop killer they'll figure out some way to deal with you outside the formal judicial process".
It's not very difficult to put two and two together: the world the guy advocates is one where government agencies have a free rein to do whatever they want without accountability, outside public scrutiny and outside the judicial process. A world where if you're a *suspect* - emphasis on the word *suspect* because the most basic rule of law principle is that you're innocent until proven guilty - you can be "dealt with" informally outside the judicial process.
It wouldn't matter if Thiel was just a nobody but we're dealing here with a man with very deep ties to the U.S. security establishment (he founded Palantir, a major defense contractor and surveillance firm, whose first institutional backer was the CIA) and with a lot of influence on Republican politics (Trump's running mate JD Vance, for instance, used to work for Thiel at Mithril Capital and Thiel was Vance's main financial backer in his 2022 Senate campaign).
