NYT: Everyone Is Getting Hilariously Rich and You’re Not

neoliberal cumrag posted:

“HODL when everyone has FUD,” Mr. Hummer said quietly, to explain why he still lives in a dorm room. “This will change civilization. This can 100 x or more from here.”

He knows this is strange.

“When I meet people in the normal world now, I get bored,” Mr. Hummer said. “It’s just a different level of consciousness.”

The tone turns somber.

“Sometimes I think about what would happen to the future if a bomb went off at one of our meetings,” Mr. Buttram said.

Mr. Hummer said, “A bomb would set back civilization for years.”

He's not wrong about it setting back civilization years; the question is whether anything good has happened in those years.

And you just know the reason they're even on this morbid train of thought is because they reckon themselves important enough to be "assassinated" rather than murdered. It excites them. Instead they'll just go hopelessly broke when the bubble pops and spend the rest of their lives being a boring rear end in a top hat at the end of a bar who never shuts up about their glory days

The sad thing is I imagine most of these people, even if they become somewhat less mega-rich at some point, will still end up rich as hell. All because their crazy libertarian impulses happened to coincide with a tulip craze at just the right time.

It's tempting to assume that there'll be some cosmic justice where these folks become not-rich at some point, but sometimes (or more realistically "usually") good things just happen to bad people.

Honestly setting aside NY Times' bad takes, it feels like WaPo at minimum has been out-scooping them on political news--which is all that has mattered--since Trump won. WaPo's analysis is also better. Times feels completely unprepared for a post-sanity news environment.

They basically got rich by ripping off other libertarians, if that makes you feel better.

It has been utterly obvious from the start that prestige media types' brains broke so hard in 2016 that they now sit around and yearn for Trump to act like a regular ol' R president so they can pretend that everything's back normal, and are so decorum-blueballed they'll seize on the slighest hint of that. Just look at the sloppy blowjobs they gave him when he blew up that empty airstrip in Syria.

what, no respect for the brave Times adventurers who venture from the safety and comfort of their urban civilization to learn about the noble savages of the remote rural areas, who seem to find contentment in their strange ways
