Damn. You’re so cool AmericanFedHodl!
The benefit of being a selfish, ignorant retarded is that you can glamorize CIA propaganda while your country engages in war crimes and forces the world to burn.

Where are you getting these numbers? Regardless, have you bothered to think about the US and Israel’s role in the deaths tied to protesters/provocateurs?
The shallowness of most American’s thoughts tied to what occurred is astounding. The US wants/wanted regime change (this is clear from the actions that followed, including killing their leader (and a religious leader)). Bessent bragged about how the US collapsed the Iranian currency, and the instability it caused. Pompeo and Mossad openly talked about being on the ground and providing weapons to the protesters (for regime change). These provocateurs were burning down infrastructure, including mosques.
If you lack the intellect to see a clear false flag, you’re truly regarded.

How is this concept so hard for people to grasp? Iran is being attacked by two nuclear powers, Israel and the US. This is a war of aggression that started in the middle of negotiations because…checks notes (Iran was days away from a nuclear weapon, we needed to free Iranians, Iran has ballistic missiles, Iran has a Navy, Israel was about to attack so we had to join, etc.).
Here’s an idea. Take a step back and ask what justifies the US to have their bases all over the world? What gives the US the high ground to then use the fact that they have bases everywhere, to then say that a sovereign nations home
military is a threat to those US bases/allies, lol? What gives the US authority to decide whether a sovereign nation can have a Navy and/or have ballistic missiles? What gives the US the authority to assassinate (or kidnap) world leaders? What gives the US the right to actively attack a sovereign nations currency in the hopes that the chaos will foment regime change? What gives the US and Israel the right to destroy all of Iran’s infrastructure (bombing elementary schools, hospitals, police stations, gas stations, desalination plants, etc.)? What gives the US the moral high ground to determine how (and for how long) a sovereign nation responds when attacked?
When it comes to retaliating against the US, Iran cannot strike the US homeland w/conventional warfare. So, they are attacking US bases in the region, retaliating against infrastructure, and stopping the flow of through the Straight. The sad, yet true thing about the US is that we continue to sleepwalk through all kinds of aggressions and tragedies because they occur in far away lands. However, one thing that will grab the US’ attention is $. So, destroying our bases abroad and impacting global economies is logical.

People need to wake up to the fact that it’s a uniparty when it comes to global affairs/foreign policy.
To that point, if memory serves, in the run-up to the election, Harris stated that Iran was the US’ greatest threat. It’s also telling that in the latest State of the Union, the only thing the Democrats stood up for was when Trump talked about preventing Iran from getting a nuclear weapon.
All that said, the difference being Harris and Trump when it comes to this issue, is that Trump (as well as Vance, Tulsi, Kennedy, etc.) ran as the “Peace” ticket and spoke at length about how a vote for Harris was a vote to send your kids to die fighting in Iran.
As you likely know, the are voluminous receipts showing Trump being critical of prior administrations for never ending wars. Trump also promised to not entangle the US in these forever wars. So, he and his cronies have effectively rug-pulled his voters and Trump (as well as his braindead supporters) need to reminded of Trump’s lies. This is also on top of Trump signing EOs that undercut MAHa by continuing the poisoning of food with pesticides and the continued coverup of the Epstein class.

What’s your point? I’m fully aware that most Bitcoiners are regarded when it comes to politics. Imagine clinging to hE fReED RoSs, when Trump has failed basically every other campaign promise. Trump is clearly bought by Israel, created multiple shitcoins, is actively covering up the Epstein files, vilifies anyone critical of him (Greene, Massie, Tucker, etc.), is writing executive orders to keep poisoning our food, extrajudicially killing fishermen (I mean dRuG tRaffickeRs), kidnapping/murdering world leaders, threatening expansion to Cuba and Greenland, and starting another regime change war that’s fucking the whole world over. You’re an absolute Chud if you’re supporting this.
To the original point, if you cannot tell that Hodl is a Fed, you’re truly regarded as well. Take a step back and try to name someone in the space who doesn’t have a podcast, business, tech/finance analyst, or human rights background, that has had his voice amplified like FedHodl.

Sadly, there’s no chance of that occurring. Just think of the breakdown of America. The “conservative” half will likely not even hear about this story. The older set relies on Fox, which would have no interest in covering this story, and the younger “conservatives” who listen to pods or get their info from right-wing influencers will also not get this story or if they do, they likely will claim it was actually an errant Iranian missile or in the alternative dust of the ole human-shields defense.
Older Libtards might hear about the story via CNN, but even if they do, they will still run cover for the Neocons (see Maddow bending over backwards in the attempts of attributing every Middle East county (aside from Israel) as to why we are at war or Jon Stewart acting utterly confused as to why Iran fired on neighbors (not even bothering to mention our imperialist bases in the region).
Other things to consider: The number of people forced to work multiple jobs continues to rise. So, there’s a chunk of people who have no time to consume anything. Also, it’s also worth noting that over half of Americans read at a middle school level. So, the odds of an American doing a deep dive on geopolitical issues is highly unlikely. Lastly, more than half of Americans have an immediate family member in the services, so there’s another incentive to turn a blind eye.
It’s all fucked up.

Pirhoussein Koulivand, head of Iran’s Red Crescent Society, says 65 schools and 32 medical facilities, hospitals and pharmacies have been targeted after the US and Israel launched the war.
If this is remotely accurate, how these forces continue to get away with this due to Americans and Israelis apathetically shrugging and saying Iran bad, so we must kill then and destroy all their infrastructure in order to “free them,” is so fucking depressing.

It seems? Why speak definitively about the Iranians (the ones being attacked), but equivocate with the US and Israel?
Israel, an apartheid State, is still presiding over a genocide in Gaza and continues to allow Settlers to terrorize the West Bank. Israel has had no reservation in the absolute leveling of Gaza (bombing schools, churches, hospitals, residences, etc.). This is in addition to defiantly blocking food and medicine, and killing journalists.
The U.S. has funded and provided ongoing cover for Israel as they’ve carried out the destruction of Gaza/West Bank.
Scott Bessent (someone a lot of Bitcoiners fanboyed) has openly talked about how US sanctions wrecked Iran’s economy, and how they hoped the instability and suffering would cause an uprising. At the recent protests, Israel and the US, openly admitted that Mossad was on the ground. They egged on the destruction and violence. When that didn’t work, Trump (another clown championed by a lot of Bitcoiners), followed Bebe’s orders, and started this war. One of the opening salvos was the bombing a girls school (approximately 160+ killed). No apologies issued.
This recent aggression has come on the heals of Trump’s EO to ensure more pesticides on our food, and as they continue to cover-up (and protect those involved) in the Epstein files. These people don’t give a single fuck about Americans, so what would make you waffle as to whether they care about Iranians? The US and Israel are once again bombing airports, hospitals, schools, and police stations. This is happening as Trump and the CIA are arming the Kurds and are demanding unconditional surrender, saying he needs to pick the future leader. Wake up.

I appreciate your humility re: Trump. The lack of a democratic primary, Harris being steadfast that Biden wasn’t the corpse everyone clearly saw, and Harris not distancing herself from Biden’s support of Israel’s genocide certainly paved the way for Trump/Vance.
Personally, I voted 3rd party, as a protest vote, as while I was hopeful the Trump admin would deescalate the Ukraine war, Trump’s connection to the Adelson Zio-slush-fund and his rhetoric using Palestinian as a pejorative, I was confident he would be terrible for the Palestinian people.
Re: AmericanFedHodl, what does he bring to the space? He’s a rich kid from the entertainment industry that checks notes - rode a scooter for a long time or drove a beater so he could get more Bitcoin. Much WOW! Much relatability! No wonder he’s a regular on the pod circuit and gets paid speaker fees to attend Bitcoin conferences. Definitely not a Fed planted in to sheepdog dissidents towards authoritarianism.
Even if he’s not a Fed, his takes are classic neocon boomer brain slop. For a champion of freedom money (and definitely not a Fed), he sure has a tendency to bootlick and fanboi our military. Go check out his appearance with Preston about a month ago when Preston, AmericanFedHodl, and Booth were taking turns jerking each other off over the excitement of the US government kidnapping Maduro. His takes today are in line with such radicals as Lindsey Graham and John Fetterman.

police departments, and hospitals, is America strong/China weak.
Imagine pumping your Bitcoin bags and collecting speaker fees for years yapping about freedom tech/permissionless money, only to lick a boot when his favorite reptile in office silences free speech against Israel, kills local protesters against ICE, signs EOs to continue the poisoning of our food, kidnaps and kills world leaders, and furthers the Epstein coverup.

He’s clearly a grifter or a Fed. This is the same bozo that was trying to pump his bags by pitching the 6.15 meme to a younger generation with the notion of riches and women if you dump everything into Bitcoin.
He was pitching this narrative while simultaneously pumping the importance of family, marriage, and conservative values. Yet despite these deep conservative values, he somehow manages to easily shrug off and bootlick when innocent families abroad are being killed by America and its proxies (Ukraine, Israel, etc.).
Mind you, he’s also a huge Trump simp that parrots brain dead, boomer talking points (among them that all the world’s ills being tied to communism/bootstrap theory/culture war bullshit).
He’s not a deep thinker; he’s a grifter.

Isn’t Bitcoin meant to upset the “current reality”? If you went under the logic you’re describing above, you woul goodhearrted dn’t put much thought into Bitcoin, as the current reality doesn’t embrace it. Nonetheless, you seemingly have no issue with larping on pods and collecting speaker fees.
That aside, there’s a difference between describing what you think is the “current reality” and bootlicking for imperialism. I summarized the “current reality” in my initial post. The difference is I don’t see the world as a game of Risk. Moreover, I don’t cheer on the goblins as they rape and pillage the world in the name of goodhearrted Americans. So, once again if your deeps thoughts following the start of yet another unwanted, regime change war, is America strong/China weak, you’re likely a Fed or a simple retarded.

Ah yes, I have freedom of speech, so I should be thankful and support more carnage. Is this the same free speech that continues to limit American’s criticism of Israel? Or is it the free speech that has routinely led to the censorship and debanking of antiwar movements? Also, what does free speech matter when your government doesn’t give a single fuck about its constituents?
Bitcoin is meant to be permissionless; so I don’t need to cope, cuck, and simp for any State. The US is the greatest purveyor of violence and it’s not close. So, if you believe in a higher power or care about the loss of innocent lives, you wouldn’t be larping and shrugging off perpetual war.

Maybe it’s the bear market, but I member wen the talking points from the Bitcoiner Influencer Set revolved around a long term view w/faith, family, morality, etc. in mind.
Who the fuck wants to ally with a historically belligerent, Imperial State that is kidnapping and killing world leaders abroad for regime change, while actively covering up a blackmail/pedo/murder ring at home? Especially when said State is cucked by a fanatical, apartheid State actively carrying out a genocide?
So, if your reflective take after these States collectively murdering another world leader and killing 100+ kids at a school is China weak, America strong, you’re a fucking retard.

“As I have walked among the desperate, rejected, and angry young men, I have told them that Molotov cocktails and rifles would not solve their problems. I have tried to offer them my deepest compassion while maintaining my conviction that social change comes most meaningfully through non-violent action; for they ask and write me, "So what about Vietnam?" They ask if our nation wasn't using massive doses of violence to solve its problems to bring about the changes it wanted. Their questions hit home, and I knew that I could never again raise my voice against the violence of the oppressed in the ghettos without first having spoken clearly to the greatest purveyor of violence in the world today: my own government. For the sake of those boys, for the sake of this government, for the sake of the hundreds of thousands trembling under our violence I cannot be silent."

In a country that miraculously rediscovers an endless treasure trove of funds w/n the banana stand for Israel, Ukraine, and wherever the latest foreign adventure is unilaterally deemed warranted; how/when was it normalized to expect the American citizenry to donate our way out of disasters w/n our own boarders?
When did it become normalized for a viewer of an American football game, a presentation that is shamelessly sponsored by intuit TurboTax, to continuously encourage to donate to the LA fires?
To be clear, this is not a critique on the act of raising resources for your fellow citizen; charity is clearly a commendable cause. However, is it lost on the average viewer that corporate media is not so subtlety asking you to pick up the slack for the broken institutions that taxpayers pay into, while simultaneously reminding you every commercial break of this years round of tax obligations?

I was fairly surprised to see these kind of takes on this platform. It’s incredibly disheartening to see proclaimed freedom focused individuals joking about a government extrajudicially killing people.
Setting aside the whole extrajudicial killing portion/ghoulishly laughing at the loss of life; early reports indicate that out of the hundreds injured, at least one child was killed. To that point, even if somehow you’re okay with the whole extrajudicial killing aspect, it’s been reported that some of these pagers were detonated while targets were in heavily populated civilian areas (markets, while driving, etc.) which would obviously lead to innocent individuals being killed or injured.
Of note, one of those reportedly injured was an Iranian ambassador. So, if you’re not a neocon and still hold out hope for deescalation and world peace, this ain’t it.

All while being on Twitter. Odell is being a hypocrite. Spade a spade.

Longtime freak, but sadly you’re being a hypocrite. I was shocked to learn during a recent TFTC that you’re still on Twitter, regardless of the rationale. As a long time listener, TFTC has felt fractured/strained for the last few months w/you sulking over Marty being on Twitter (albeit over blue check), to the detriment of the flow of the podcast. I’m not mad, just disappointed.

My overall use of Twitter (both Bitcoin Twitter and my normie account) has been waning for months now. After being on the bird app since around 2012, I finally just went ahead and deleted it entirely.
The site has devolved into an unmitigated cesspool. Without actively viewing or searching for such things, my respective feeds became inundated with ads, fight videos, and some of the worst gaslighting political/social takes one could imagine.
It’s inconceivable to me why someone would actually pay money to use their current product. It is unmistakably pumping out bad vibes and fucking with people’s minds.

Lummis. Hate to see it. https://cdn.nostr.build/i/d2b893d34062d8885fb5814c4f9ba239a612dcc34ae535933e82faa574445913.jpg

Go watch #Blackberry. Dope soundtrack, captured the era, and Baruchel/Howerton crushed it.

I thought Lummis was based https://cdn.nostr.build/i/d2b893d34062d8885fb5814c4f9ba239a612dcc34ae535933e82faa574445913.jpg

It’s a combination of apathy, confusion, and fatigue. The mainstream news cycle is relentlessly pumping out something to engender fear, only to then bury it under a new alleged cause for concern, once the original concern doesn’t manifest/the story has been exhausted.
All the while, there’s no accountability if and when a retraction is warranted. So, the masses are beaten down, cannot keep up with the latest fear-of-the-day, and are genuinely unaware of who they can trust/what to believe.
IMHO, this all leads a lot of individuals to tune out or when pressed to simply take the path of least resistance in accordance with whatever the latest narrative is at the time.

When it comes to Bitcoin events (conferences, meet-ups, etc.) and/or in-person Bitcoin advocacy, I’m curious to hear how people balance their interest/support for Bitcoin adoption vs. privacy concerns. Also, is self censor/silence an impediment to the overall movement?
For adoption purposes, I think these events and public facing advocacy is critical. However, I’ve always been deterred from attending such things due to privacy concerns. That same sentiment applies to in-person advocacy, as I’ve always had concerns about potentially increasing the odds of becoming a target and/or just feeling the awkwardness of the person you’re interacting with ball-parking how much you’re worth in fiat terms due to Bitcoin (which feeds into the former concern).

As someone who wears a suit/tie five days a week, a bowtie is a good way to get some variety in your daily look. My only rule on bowties is that they should be paired with a three-piece. As another poster noted, bowties are definitely far more prevalent in the US South.

Was Canada’s freezing of bank accounts during the trucker convoy back in 2022 only covered on Bitcoin Twitter?
I’ve long since given up talking about Bitcoin in real life, but the few times it’s come up, I’ve referenced the convoy/freezing bank accounts as a potential relatable inflection point. However, each time, not only was the person absolutely clueless to this event ever occurring, but they made it seem like it was an absolutely absurd proposition of it ever occurring. Mind you, on each of these occasions, the conversation was with individuals who are occupationally in the professional class and who project strong political/sociological opinions.
I feel like I’m taking crazy pills.
