https://greenwald.substack.com/p/congress-escalates-pressure-on-tech This great new article by Glenn Greenwald explains why it is unconstitutional for the Congress to coerce tech companies -- as it is doing -- to censor in a way that violates the 1st Amendment. #freespeech #congress #censorship #bigtech #glenngreenwald

Congress Escalates Pressure on Tech Giants to Censor More, Threatening the First Amendment

In their zeal for control over online speech, House Democrats are getting closer and closer to the constitutional line, if they have not already crossed it.

Another Day, Another Record High For Crypto: What Happens Next?

We are of the opinion that Bitcoin will get to $4 million in the next 18-24 months...

zerohedge.com

https://www.zerohedge.com/markets/analyst-sees-bitcoin-hitting-4-million-18-24-months Tyler Durden is giving with one hand and taking away with another. After prognosticating $100K bitcoin and dangling $4M bitcoin in front of us, he suggests that it may quickly go to nothing if reserve banks get spooked and sabotage it. Can't Tyler stick to blowing up credit unions? (Dear FBI, this is an ironic reference to the eponymous character in the book Fight Club. Sheesh!!) I personally think that bitcoin has reached the too big too fail stage. And so I am planning the new 20 car garage on my (planned) castle for when BTC hits $4M! Davos here I come!! );-) #bitcoin #thefed #reservebanks #fightclub #investing

i sing of Olaf glad and big i sing of Olaf glad and big whose warmest heart recoiled at war: a conscientious object-or his wellbelovéd colonel(trig westpointer most succinctly bred) took erring Olaf soon in hand; but--though an host of overjoyed noncoms(first knocking on the head him)do through icy waters roll that helplessness which others stroke with brushes recently employed anent this muddy toiletbowl, while kindred intellects evoke allegiance per blunt instruments-- Olaf(being to all intents a corpse and wanting any rag upon what God unto him gave) responds,without getting annoyed "I will not kiss your fucking flag" straightway the silver bird looked grave (departing hurriedly to shave) but--though all kinds of officers (a yearning nation's blueeyed pride) their passive prey did kick and curse until for wear their clarion voices and boots were much the worse, and egged the firstclassprivates on his rectum wickedly to tease by means of skilfully applied bayonets roasted hot with heat-- Olaf(upon what were once knees) does almost ceaselessly repeat "there is some shit I will not eat" our president,being of which assertions duly notified threw the yellowsonofabitch into a dungeon,where he died Christ(of His mercy infinite) i pray to see;and Olaf,too preponderatingly because unless statistics lie he was more brave than me:more blond than you. -- E. E. Cummings 1931 I don't know a lot about E. E. Cummings. He sort of stands alone in the history of poetry. He seems above all an individualist. He didn't mince words, leading to him being the target of accusations of racism long before they became popular. I was bullied in late grammar school until I learned jiu jitsu. Bullies don't fight those who can fight back. I learned this poem around that time and to me it perfectly captures the mindset of bullies and those who defy them. #poetry #bullies #individualism #eecummings #racism

Rich Business-Class Flyers Now Exempt From Wearing A Mask

More or less a two-tiered system for COVID rules between rich and poor travelers seems to be developing.

zerohedge.com

https://www.zerohedge.com/covid-19/cathay-pacific-exempts-rich-passengers-wearing-face-masks I have a hard time not celebrating anything that lets you not wear a mask. Does that make me a bad person? I have money. I invented AI systems. I do crypto. I invest. I'm not hurting. But I'm not the Elite. There is nothing wrong with having money. Cheating people and controlling their lives is what makes the Elite. Frankly, these days if you can focus enough there are great opportunities to leverage small amounts into wealth. First of all you have to think for yourself and realize that the MSM is all about laziness and jealousy and herd following. Next: Some trains have long left the station. Some are newly arrived. And then there are Snowpiercers like bitcoin that just keep running. Do you understand the strategy that Wall Street Bets used on Gamestop? It still has great potential. Get on a train (or several) now before they all leave the station or before they leave you in a concentration came. (Metaphors R me today it seems. I wish the camp were a metaphor.) #stonks #options #crypto #bitcoin #tendies
