Zirn Zibbles
Influencers really need to realize their weak points. Well, everybody does, but it’s more consequential when influencers grab onto the latest obvious scam. Kirn doesn’t realize that tech is his weak point. Or else he’s working for the enemy. Today he’s advertising something called Urbit, the latest version of Gab or Parler. Urbit comes with…

Purpose vs Parkinson
Briefly returning to those ‘independent’ organizations who allowed BLATANTLY OBVIOUS DEEPSTATERS to take command. Early in the holocaust, the German ‘independent’ ACU claimed to have secret info that would blow up the blackmail. Nothing happened, then they allowed RFK Jr to take over. The Unz boys claimed to be working on the biowar question, revealing…

No, it’s the exact opposite of math
Bitcoiners constantly say they’re letting math rule. Math is god, math is supreme, math is unarguable. Nope. They’ve kicked math out of the house. Math is always formed in equations. Using math means screwing around with both sides of the equal sign, always keeping both sides effectively equal. That’s the original definition of algebra, and…

Best prescription
Writing in City Journal, NS Lyons diagnoses the rebels of this age precisely and comprehensively, and offers the most REALISTIC prospect for a solution. Lyons gives too much credit to Trump. Like many other sympathetic diagnosers, he believes Trump was blindsided by Deepstate: = = = = = As the Trump administration belatedly discovered, taking…

Picture worth 14 trillion words
I linked this graph in previous item about central banks opening the dam in 2020 and now starting to shut the dam. The graph is so extremely extremely extremely extremely extreme that it deserves to be seen on its own. This is the M1 supply of money, basically all the dollars that have been “printed”…

Reprint on “privacy”
Noticing more idiotic “concerns” that one agency or company might be accessing your private data. THIS IS FUCKING STUPID. Everyone who isn’t hopelessly bound up in partisan soap opera assumes that EVERYTHING IS PUBLIC ALL THE TIME. This isn’t specific to one agency or company, and it’s NOT NEW AT ALL. Only the shockedshocked is…

Was Emerson right?
In 1840 Emerson wrote: Though no checks to a new evil appear [at first], the checks exist and will appear. If the government is cruel, the governor’s life is not safe. If you tax too high, the revenue will yield nothing. If you make the criminal code sanguinary, juries will not convict. Nothing arbitrary, nothing…

Somebody else gets it!
The bitcoin enterprise was developed BY Deepstate FOR Deepstate. This was obvious from the fucking start, and I’ve been shouting about it for 10 years. Bitcoin is CENTRALIZED BY FUCKING DEFINITION. When all transactions MUST take place inside NSA’s web, all transactions are CENTRALIZED IN THE WORST POSSIBLE WAY. You can’t possibly call this decentralized…

The last influencer
Thanks to the central banks finally turning off the counterfeit waterfall, the bitcoin and NFT tower of lunacy has just about finished imploding. Nearly everything in the realm has been “hacked” by its founders or “accidentally” crashed by a “glitch” or “paused” to allow the founders to abscond safely. Now that the Correct Persons have…

Great line
As the Web3 metaverse continues to collapse, some jaded observers are turning out great lines. The specific story is yet another weirdly complex trading of nothing: The problem is brewing at BendDAO, a peer-to-peer lending service that lets users borrow ether (ETH) against their NFTs. Customers can typically take out a loan equal to 30%…

Gresham metaphor
Most of the content on the Blockworks Macro channel is pure bitcoin crap. But as usual, the bitcoiners are often the best realists on everything else. This clip features an old guy talking with two young Bitcoin Bros. Starting at 36 minutes, the old guy makes a wonderful analogy with Gresham’s law. Our information has…

NFT next?
Earlier today I mentioned the invention (or rather evolution) of the transistor in 1947. Bell Labs also developed most of speech science, including synthesis and recognition, and the C programming language, and microwave technology, and a million other useful devices and entire branches of science. After the switch from profit to Share Value in 1980,…

WWJD?
This week I’ve been quoting Duane Jones’s 1955 book on marketing and business practices. What would Jones say about Bitcoin and Metaverse and NFT? Facebook is primarily an advertising agency, so it certainly fits inside the topic. Jones couldn’t have imagined such MAGNIFICENT STUPIDITY. He worked in a period (1930-1960) when businesses functioned on PROFIT,…

More boxtop thoughts
Continuing from previous. One of Duane Jones’s basic principles: There’s no point in advertising or boxtopping if the product itself isn’t good. The product must “repeat when sampled”; the first try should entice another try. This is naturally true of naturally addictive products like alcohol, but the standard should apply in a more ethical way…

We need more dramatization, not more facts.
At the start of the 2020 “virus” hoax, I stupidly hoped that getting out the facts would persuade people. I shouldn’t have let myself harbor such hopes, since I’m the one who constantly shouts EXPERIENCE IS THE ONLY TEACHER. Those hopes faded quickly, replaced by my own jail EXPERIENCE with psychopaths. Good teachers and good…
