  1. I used to read history books about Germany or Russia and be like how did these people not see this coming? I never thought it would happen here and that people simply wouldn't care
  2. These friggin morons think this is ok because it helps their side. It's only a matter of time before they use it against them. Have they never read a book in their life? This is basically the game plan for every authoritarian takeover in history. Media propaganda, rewriting history, throw your political opponents in jail or assassinate them, install leaders without democratic process. This is not some kind of crazy conspiracy this is literally happening in our country and nobody seems to care.
  3. He changed his mind like some of my family members did after 4 years of Biden
  4. I think if we get to that point we are all screwed. That's end of the world type stuff. I hope it doesn't completely fail but dollars are increasingly becoming more and more worthless every day (inflation) and China already stopped using dollars in trade so there's that. My personal thought is that US dollars are worthless in theory now that we are off the gold standard and maybe other countries won't want to be bullied into using it for trade anymore so it doesn't need to completely fail for us to see hyper inflation. Our entire economy is supported by the fact that we are the world's super power and we can print dollars any time we want. What if nobody wants US dollars anymore? Look at our deficit. Why would other countries allow us to print endless dollars to pay it down? Something will eventually have to give. Bitcoin is just another asset class, much easier to trade than physical goods. A use case might be the US is in a civil war and you flee to Europe but nobody wants your US dollars to pay for things but they do want your Bitcoin so maybe you trade a Bitcoin for local currency. You can't easily trade a house or a car in that situation and you aren't going to be walking around with a backpack full of gold bricks. Or maybe we see hyper inflation and Bitcoin will suddenly seem pretty stable when soup costs $100 a can. Maybe you won't need some Bitcoin. But if you do, I do know that you can wait to buy it and it will just cost more and more. I have a friend that said at 5k he was waiting for it to go back under 1k then at 20k he was waiting for 10k and now at 68k he's waiting for like 30k. He's just always going to be waiting. Any maybe he won't need it but it's a nice option to have.
  5. To your point I think there will be crypto with better use cases for currency replacement. I don't personally see that happening for Bitcoin. I think it's like gold bullion and if you want dollar dollar bills you will trade it as needed.
  6. It was more of a narrative on the naysayers rather than a personal response. My thought process is 1 Bitcoin always equals 1 Bitcoin. I don't really care how many US dollars that equals on a day to day because I have a Bitcoin that has a value in whatever currency I will eventually need to transact with. I don't keep track of what my real estate or classic cars are worth. I know they have a value that is likely much more than I paid and if I ever need cash to transact (cash that goes down in value every day and much more so under this regime) then I can finance them or sell them at current market values. It's just another asset class and one that has been and continues to be quite fruitful!
  7. Crypto as a whole is still in its early adoption phase so yes it's pretty volatile if your goal is to swap it for dollars. I personally think it's smarter to hold it, buy an amount you can afford to lose and forget that you have it. If you go in with the mindset that you want to own the crypto and not paper dollars then you are going to care less about the day to day fluctuations. A president that supports it and some limited common sense regulation will do a lot to bring confidence and stability. You also don't invest in gold, you hold it. It's often a safe haven when you know other investments are about to go to crap. Bitcoin has a limited supply much like gold and will hopefully be considered "digital gold," easier to travel with and quicker to transact for local currency as needed. Your arguments are similar to the argument against Trump. "This will happen if he gets elected." Well it didn't happen last time Trump was in office and Bitcoin also didn't do whatever you are scared it will do. Some people on these forums are up like 1,000%+ at this point so it's hard to take people serious when they say how crypto is worthless. If anything the dollar is becoming worthless which is why 1 Bitcoin is worth way more dollars now. 1 Bitcoin always equals 1 Bitcoin.
  8. With Bitcoin if you think of it as a reserve currency rather than transactional you might "get it." Nobody buys pizza with gold bullion either.
  9. Yes you guys should stay out of it lol. People have been saying that since Bitcoin was $68 and now it's $68,000 and by the time you guys have to buy some because the dollar is collapsing and nobody uses it for trade it will be $680,000.
  10. Nice try @IRS. I don't know what you are talking about 🤫
  11. They want to indoctrinate them early. That's why they push this stuff so hard in schools. Seems to be working. Kamala is up big with 18-24 year olds and they don't know why. This stuff is now normal for them.
  12. The last time the world got this bad God sent a flood. Anyone got a boat for sale?
  13. Lol this senator from Montana has zero shot at being reelected. That was a bad example
  14. Look at his pic. The guy is a total dweeb. It's only women and weak men on the left
  15. It's literally the only job she has and she blew it. Name 1 other thing she did. All we heard was how she was the border car and would fix the border and then she did nothing and now they are saying she was never a border czar. Wtf??? Make it make sense
  16. So in these 3 posts we have Kamala supports defunding the police, Kamala is a Communist, and Kamala is the border czar letting in endless drugs and terrorists. And there are still idiots on here who would vote for this? Then you aren't American plain and simple. We have fought wars over this kind of stuff and you are taking a dump on the memories of those lost soldiers. That's not cool with me.
  17. Because they are more likely to be raped by someone they know. Just like black women. Locking the door won't help. They are already inside. Now let eat my cheerios 😄
  18. Says some white lady that locks her car doors when she sees a black man crossing the street. People that point out people's skin color are the most racist of them all
  19. Dems want no voter ID and mail in ballots. Gee, I wonder why. Just wait until Trump wins the electoral college again before the final tallies and they are going to cry about how they need to get rid of that just like how they cry about stacking the courts. They hate the democratic process clearly
  20. What corporation is for the GOP? I'll go work for them in a heartbeat
  21. Yes besides Biden I meant to say. Which is fine if they are the best people for the job but it's been very forced. Biden even said if he got the nominee he would choose a black woman, aka DEI. Yikes, what pandering. I would have liked Vivek for the GOP and it wouldn't have been forced, I think he was the best of the bunch
  22. Because 1 party plays identity politics where it's less about your achievements and more about your skin color so I'll take a wild guess that it doesn't jive with white supremacists when that party has only picked presidential nominees based on skin color and gender. The Dems haven't nominated a white male in 20 years. So it's not far fetched to see why they choose the other side which is less of an indictment on Trump personally and more about the other sides politics imo. I'm on neither side so I don't like the extremes on either end but Trump has condemned white supremacy but Biden or Harris has never condemned black supremacy (BLM). Now who is the racist?
  23. So you are saying you like and agree with BLM? Nobody likes Nazis or KKK but it sounds like you do like BLM
