It seems the true conversation is finally starting to sneak up into mainstream.

The issue of Bill Gates is pretty obvious:

Why should a guy who isn't involved in the health field be talking about smallpox?

Like if people heard me saying "new smallpox gonna drop get hype" a lot of people would disregard me because how would I know that? So either bill is lying (scamming) or bill is telling the truth. If a scam then it's a major scam, if the truth then bill knows something but not gonna tell us the specifics because "dude we got this"?

Like with Hillary talking about Bitcoin. It's either a scam (price fixing) or a scam (drive a frenzy in buying then kill the coin)

The fact that these people keep talking is causing problems why would anybody disregard it? :backfromgab:
@zemichi @LukeAlmighty Agree with most of what you wrote but there's a third option in your Hillary example, genuinely feeling threatened by crypto (I believe "they" are)
@irie @LukeAlmighty
>They're threatened

They own it and they have the means to fix the price with a simple "Hillary just bought some doge 🚀🚀🚀🚀" tweet

They're not threatened. :backfromgab: :bitcoin:
@zemichi @LukeAlmighty Interesting take. I don't own any BTC, so no skin in the game, but I doubt you could prove that. More importantly, their plans are known and they do not include crypto. They want CENTRAL BANK DIGITAL CURRENCY, which is the antithesis to decentralized crypto. From this, you can make an argument that crypto is indeed a threat for their plans. CBDC would allow them to control all quantity, see all transactions, delete your money, money with expiration date (China is already doing that), taxation on every transaction, blocking transactions, etc. Even if you can prove that they own BTC (that's what you said, right?) decentralized crypto isn't only BTC.

@zemichi
In my opinion, there are 2 main issues with people like Bill.

1st: He can be brainwashed. In fact, he is exactly as brainwashed by little Greta as your grandma. Because propaganda works on emotions. And money does not make him immune from emotional manipulation. But with billions of dollars, his uninformed acts will cause unimaginable damage.

2nd: He still is not imune to evil. His money has so much power, he can kill millions by investing in bad things.

So, in short, it doesn't even matter whether they do or do not know. That kind of money they are using will CREATE pain no matter how they use it.

@LukeAlmighty The solution is that people need to focus on how they can improve their local community. Billionaires and politicians pretending to make the world a better place just gives people an excuse not to do so.

I actually agree. I realized recently, that the only way to be safe is to build a strong community on as smass scale as possible.

Any czech wanna grab a beer? (even though not in a pub...)
