It feels very strange for freep to discuss Dragon Ball. I don't think I like it.

Somehow I think freepers are unaware that Son Goku is based on Sun Wukong, aka one of the main characters from the chinese novel Journey to the West. Any time these guys talk about Dragon Ball or MLP or what have you it seems weird because it's hard to imagine them even liking characters who would idk, advocate for peace over violence. I wonder where they fall on the pirates vs ninjas debate?

On April 19th or 20th comes the Bitcoin halving.

Three out of Four times it has happened whatever the price of Bitcoin is at the halving it doubles in 18 or 19 days.

Oh and for the record this is the first Bull Run where we hit all time highs before the halving. Probably because of BlackRock, Fidelity, State Street, etc... All 9 ETFs are buying up the maximum coins they can every day. Ditto Micro Strategy that borrowed 700 million to buy more Bitcoin, and even countries like El Salvador, Argentina and United Arab Emirates.

Don’t get me wrong. You can make a lot of money with bitcoin. And people made a lot of money with Tulip bulbs. But it’s all about getting out before it collapses - and then comes back - and then collapses again.

Don’t get me wrong. I understand that it may endure. I just don’t believe an investment that is based on nothing but “faith” and the “greater fool” concept will survive in the end. Maybe history will change. I just don’t personally believe it will.

I own a few cryptos through Coinbase and I’m about to get out. A friend had his account hacked and they stole money from his linked bank account, which was restored by the bank after an investigation (Go Frost Bank!!!!) It seems that Coinbase didn’t follow their policy of a delay in transactions so that account owners can be notified if the transaction is fraudulent.

Smells like B.S., and more like “user error”.... Probably clicked on a phishing email and gave them on his info or to someone that called him or her? I could not tell you since I can’t see what transpired. All you have is their word.

There are several checks you have to go through before sending money. For instance, you have to approve it on your computer, cell phone and email when taking from an Exchange. If he or she had it vault, and it sounds like they did not then it’s even longer (48 hours moving it out of cold storage (offline) ).

I know people that do cash out a little here and there. It’s same day now transaction. Use to be 3 to 5 business days.

Blackrock is going to cover its losses in the Ukraine gamble.

I think the ETFs were approved in part as a way to correct the huge coming losses in corporate finance balance sheets when Russian occupies all those profitable property rights conferred by Zenlinski.

Bitcoin was going up but these ETFs will push it over the moon. The first 39 trading days of the ETFs saw 369,000 BTC flow into ETFs.

Money is flowing out of Gold ETFs into BTC ETFs.

I will keep my 5+ BTC and probably try to create a LLC or Corp which is based on 1 BTC Share and any additional Satoshis to create generational wealth.

Just because something is new and different doesn’t mean it’s a con or bad. With the worldwide debasement of sovereign currencies, many people and some institutions have been looking for a way to hedge their bets. One doesn’t have to deal in whole Bitcoins as each can be broken down into satochis (100 million satoshis to one bitcoin).

Bitcoin is in its infancy, but it is the hardest money the world has produced in that their is a fixed number that will be issued, and that number can never be increased. Yes, it’s very volatile, but if institutions and other large entities decide it’s a viable alternative to sovereign currency for certain transactions its value should be substantial and more stable. A plus is the privacy of using it, and the ever increasing places it can be used. Can it disappear? Sure, but what if it doesn’t.

If from my words you believe I have religious faith in government, you are completely missing my point. I don’t think you’re really listening to me.

Let me be crystal clear here: fiat currency supported by a government and its military is not a stable and sound form of money. However. It’s way ahead of a currency like crypto that is founded on and supported by nothing but faith. That is, faith and the concept of the greater full theory. On a scale of 1 to 10 in security of the money type, I put fiat currency at a 2 and cryptocurrency to 0 or 1. Faith can disappear overnight. And the only power faith has in the real world is the ability of those with faith to become violent when their currency is threatened. I consider that to be a paper tiger. Or, another way to look at it, is that if that ever does happen that will be the least of our problems.

It’s not faith.

There’s plenty of evidence that shows that the bitcoin ecosystem is largely fullproof when it comes to the weaknesses of fiat currency.

If it were faith, bitcoin detractors would be able to come up with coherent criticisms.

But they can’t.

All they can do is spout the same canards that have been repeated endlessly over the last seven or eight years, like “Greater Fool”, “Tulips”, “no inherent value”, and “Ponzi”.

Give me one example of a bitcoin criticism that doesn’t involve cutting and pasting catchphrases from someone else. What’s a criticism that you can come up with on your own?

What backs it?

Bitcoin is a scarce digital commodity. It is not a backed-token like Stablecoins or commodity-backed coins. Any cryptocurrency that is backed by a real world commodity or currency inserts counterparty risk into the network, since you need to rely on someone to store and facilitate the exchange of said commodity.

A token backed by a currency exposes the token to the risk of the issuing bank and the government or central bank behind it.

There is no bitcoin issuer, and one not need any government permission or other means other than the Bitcoin network itself to facilitate trading of BTC.

The security of the Bitcoin network is backed by the laws of mathematics.

If you need a central bank or kleptocratic government to back your assets, then Bitcoin is not for you. Not everyone wants true financial sovereignty.

Bitcoin allows anyone to store value in a decentralized global network. It also allows anyone, at any time, without any license or permission, to send value almost instantly across the globe to anyone else.

That in and of itself will always be valuable, and right now that value has a market cap of $1.3 trillion.

At its base utility, Bitcoin has no issuer, no counterpart risk, or intermediary, so it’s a public and secure network available to all and not controllable by any central government.

Its scarcity means that anyone in the world can own a small (or large) part of the network through fungible BTC tokens. That supply of tokens will never change, and as the demand for permissionless and borderless payments increases, so will the value of each token.

Bitcoin is a global payments network based on a digital asset that can store value with no hardware or cost is valuable, which is why it’s considered a digital commodity.

The fact that you glean no value from it is irrelevant.

Bitcoin is now the scaffolding for exchange traded funds from the world’s largest financial institutions, is considered legal tender by a small, yet growing number of nations, and is an accepted form of payment by tens of thousands of merchants in the US alone.

Your dismissal of Bitcoin seems to be based on the tautology that “as soon as people don’t value it, it loses value.” But that isn’t an argument.

An argument would be some specific piece of evidence that at some specific, future time frame or epoch, mankind will not value Bitcoin, or borderless payments, or digital assets. This is true for any commodity if there’s a sufficient replacement or a halt to the need for the utility it provides.

But there is no evidence of any such thing.

Mitch McConnell’s billionaire sister-in-law Angela Chao made panicked last call before dying in ‘completely submerged’ Tesla on Texas ranch: report posted by freeper bitt

Basically she backed into a lake and then couldn't open the doors or smash the windows to get out. The door handles on the Tesla she was driving are purely electronic devices, with no physical link between the handle and the latch. But that doesn't matter to freep.

Ok this poo poo pisses me off. I did one of those voluntourism church trips to Haiti in high school. Not proud of that method of travel in hindsight, but getting to actually visit Haiti was a blessing. Everyone was extremely kind and happy to share Haitian culture, food, everything with dumb white kids. Not so much the frothing, terrifying barbarians the right wing wants people to be. If anything Haiti is what the USA should aspire to loving be.

Political problems in Haiti also, well, let me just gesture wildly in the direction of the USA and France for where all that poo poo came from.

Washington Governor Jay Inslee Poised to Kill Free Speech posted by freeper jacknhoo

The article is on Liberty Nation dot com, which is just as nutty as you might guess from the name alone. Instead, here's an article from a more reliable source, the Seattle Times.

quote:

Washington will establish a nonpolice hotline to assist people who have been targeted by hate crimes and bias incidents, state lawmakers decided this week, passing a new version of a bill that failed to advance last year.

Senate Bill 5427, sponsored by Sen. Javier Valdez, D-Seattle, among others, directs the state Attorney General’s Office to create a hotline serving at least three Washington counties by 2025 and all counties by 2027.

The bill says the hotline should be staffed during business hours. It says call takers should provide victims with information, refer them to culturally competent, trauma-informed local service providers for additional help and document the calls for annual reports. Identifying information will be kept out of the reports and will be exempt from public disclosure requests.
[...]
SB 5427 defines bias incidents as “hostile expressions of animus” that relate to a victim’s actual or perceived race, color, ethnicity, religion, ancestry, national origin, gender, sexual orientation, gender expression or identity, or disability. Bias incidents don’t include free-speech expressions for or against the policies of foreign or domestic governments, the bill says.

Proponents say a hotline is needed because many hate crimes currently go unreported to — or undocumented by — police and because police generally don’t record data on bias incidents, which are noncriminal in nature. Especially in marginalized communities, people might be afraid to contact police. Even when police are contacted, they might lack evidence to document a hate crime.

Liberty Nation, of course, sees this differently.

quote:

To be clear, this isn’t merely about going after people who have allegedly committed physical “hate crimes.” It also targets reported instances of “a person’s hostile expression of animus toward another person, relating to the other person’s actual or perceived characteristics…” Literally, the hotline gives people a way of informing on others supposedly guilty of thought crimes – or, perhaps, speech crimes.
[...]
It is easy to see, then, that any expression of opposition to, say, transgender ideology, would get someone reported to the hotline. Free speech – at least in the three Washington counties to which this program will initially be rolled out – appears under threat. If one cannot say anything that another person of a different race, sex, religion, or sexual orientation finds offensive in some way without being reported to the attorney general’s office, then one no longer enjoys the constitutionally protected right to freedom of speech.
[...]
The potential scope of abuse with this new hotline is vast – especially since any identifying personal information provided to the hotline is “confidential and exempt from public inspection, copying, or disclosure.” Neither is that information to be included in any written reports. That means if anyone wanted to go after someone whose political opinions they don’t like, they could, conceivably, fabricate a “hate crime” or “bias incident” out of nothing. In fact, this new law, which takes effect on Jan. 1, 2025, exempts so much information from public disclosure that there will be no accountability at all to the people of the Evergreen State. After all, faking hate crimes has become common practice for the progressive left.

46 posted on 3/11/2024, 12:55:16 AM by 21twelve (Ever Vigilant. Never Fearful.)

So I figured that number was bullshit so I looked it up and he might actually be telling the truth:

The Seattle Times posted:

Among King County cities with at least 60,000 residents, Redmond had the highest share of the population which was born in another country, at 45%. Bellevue ranked second at 43%, and Sammamish was third at 34%.

Seattle had the lowest percentage, with foreign-born people making up around 20% of the population.

Of the nearly 500 census tracts in King County, there were 11 where immigrants made up the majority of the population. The western half of the Crossroads neighborhood in Bellevue had the highest concentration of immigrants, at 64%. The lowest percentage was in the eastern part of East Renton Highlands, at 3%.

Seattle’s top neighborhood for immigrants was the Chinatown International District/Yessler Terrace area, where 52% were born in a foreign country. The city’s lowest percentage was in the North Admiral/Genesee section of West Seattle, where immigrants made up just 4% of the population.
If you know how the Seattle area is laid out in terms of industry and jobs, those numbers will make a lot of sense. According to the article, the majority of the immigrants are Indian and Chinese, which also checks out.


US patient dead from bubonic plague as concerns rise over ‘ongoing risk’ of rodent-borne disease posted by freeper ChicagoConservative27

Plague “is a bacterial disease of rodents,” according to the health department, and generally spreads to humans through infected flea bites; it additionally can gain ground through direct contact with infected animals, such as rodents, wildlife and even pets.

There are plenty of diseases you can blame uncontrolled immigration for, but plague in the American Southwest isn’t one of them.

As a result of their stupidity, we can expect a recrudescence of all the horrors of the past which Western Civilization conquered.

A return of the black plague is only one.

Defecation on public sidewalks is an open invitation for the return of cholera and other horrible diseases.

She died two years ago and her two sisters came forward to say they had researched the family and there wasn’t a drop of Native blood in her family line on either side, that she was a poseur and a liar. She had less Indian genes that Elizabeth Warren who was at most 1/1024th Indian.

The new theory is that the Uniparty is worried that they can't beat Trump with cheat-by-mail-in ballots this time, so their Plan B is that Trump gets convicted on one of the bogus lawfare cases.

The House will declare that Trump is ineligible to be President.

The jelly-spined Republicans are too scared to do this if the House still has a Republican majority, so one-by-one, there will be RINO resignations until the Democrats control the House.

Also - he’s a KID! We adults should be circling the wagons around him after what he has been through.

I’m not saying he’s a coward. He’s every BIT the Soldier who has come home from war, scars and all.

He deserves to just relax and build a life. I see this as possibly suicidal on his part. There are a LOT of nutcases out there; he doesn’t need to put himself in additional danger to prove anything to me.

He needs better ‘handlers’ if that’s what’s going on, here. I’d HATE to see anyone make money off of his tragedy. Killing someone in Self-Defense means you still killed someone. And he was only Seventeen when all of this happened. Our brains are barely functional at that age. He still has a LOT to process.

He’s getting BAD advice all the way around if he’s going to be on some Public Speaking Tour.

We had our Mid South Civil War shows the same weekend as the COGIC conventions and saw the same as you. If any enemy of the US were want to destroy Memphis they wouldn’t have to hit the city...all they would have to do is detonate a bomb nearby and the blacks in Memphis would destroy the city themselves.

I have to agree. Though I am a skeptic about much of the conspiracy theories that have come down the pike there are 2 that I believe are true. The first is Covid was bought and paid for by extreme leftists in this country and the second is that the ruined reputation of Boeing will go well in producing a crippled airline industry. Let us investigate who has been recently hired at Boeing and what political leaning those people might have. There is no coincidence with so many occurrences of mechanical malfunctions.

The Brown Shirts were a reaction to Marxists. The Marxists would attack and break up nationalist meetings. Hitler organized the Brown Shirts to counter-attack the Marxists at his meetings.

Germany then suffered a decade of Reds and Browns fighting for control of the streets.

When the Weimer Republic failed to restore Constitutional rule of law, it became a given that either Reds or Browns would take over the country.

Unless Trump can restore Constitutional rule of law, we are entering years of chaos, then tyranny of one kind or another.

Trump can’t do that by himself. He would need help from local groups educated in their rights and constitutional duties having shored up their moral and spiritual foundations with God. They would need to be prepared to defend themselves and to stick together and to know who their people are vs who the federal agents provocateurs are. Then a strong national movement would have to ensue to clean up the mess. Forget about dialog. Those who say men can be women and visa versa have no moral sense and must not have a seat at the table any longer. Pedophiles have no moral seat at the table. Pink hair soy boy fools have no moral right to have any say at the table. Conservative bedrock principles are the only cementing glue that can keep a people together and unified! Those who insist on provoking disorder in order to bring about socialist “change” are likely to get swept away in their own blinding chaos!

The entire Nazi party was created as a response to the attempted communist takeover, and the Brown shirts were organized to fight the antifa types in the streets. Many, if not most, of the bolsheviks in the Russian Revolution were Jewish, so Hitler blamed the rise of communist gangs in Austria/Germany, among other things, on the Jews. Or so I understand.

No I'm not saying we need to resort to violence, but we do need to stop pouring money into the corporations that are pushing this agenda against us. That includes the mainstream media and the woke companies that actively work against us.

The left made their money count and we didn't. The result is that just about all of corporate America is falling all over themselves to appeal to the left. Why aren't they trying to appeal to us? Because they know they can count on us to keep pouring our money into their coffers no matter how many times they lie about us and incite violence against us.

The source here is a PolitiFact article from 2015, which is all the OP is using to kick off this discussion.
Flashback: Polls indicate that "white people think that black people are less intelligent. They think they’re less trustworthy, less patriotic."

Other than Justice Thomas, Candace Owens, Thomas Sowell and a handful of others, all famous blacks in the U.S. are foaming at the mouth idiots. Maybe if the normal black people with normal ideas were allowed to be heard it wouldn’t be so easy to assume all blacks are as stupid and corrupt as Big Fanni, JJ, Hank Johnson and Maxine Waters.

Did Juan (yes 9 years ago) break down the political and religious beliefs of those questioned?

I would bet liberals, democrats, progressives, commies, socialists, marxists all believe the inferiority of blacks and that their supreme white liberal beliefs are the only thing that can save blacks from themselves. How else can we explain the endless welfare and coddling of blacks for their unquestioned vote.

The subtle innuendo about blacks always committing crimes.

The propaganda is not the frequency of blacks committing crimes. It’s the effect on the mind of repeating it over and over.

The effect on the mind is to view all blacks as a problem. It’s low IQ, and it occurs in the primitive part of the brain.

“Hating black people is the opposite of MAGA.”

Believing blacks have a lower average IQ than whites is NOT hate - it’s just a belief - and it also happens to be the truth.

Believing blacks commit more crime than whites is NOT hate - it’s just a belief - and it also happens to be the truth.

You know what the opposite of MAGA is? It is the obliteration of truth in the name of political correctness.

If no one is allowed to say out loud (or even think) that blacks commit more crime when it’s true, then the truth has been obliterated.

MAGA means a lot of things - and one important one is making America a place where you are not punished for telling the truth.

Blacks commit more crime. There. I said it.

He's wrong. Memphis's murder rate is 29.21 per 100k. St Louis has the highest at 64.54.

Hmmm I wonder why he brings that up? It's a mystery, and anyway he's wrong. Not sure where he got that very specific 64.4% number but the 2020 census data puts the Black population of Memphis at 45.7% and the White population at 47.9%.

There's an ex cop that comes into my place of employment that talks like he posts on Freep.

It's terrifying to listen to him knowing the power he once had and I'm glad he's retired now, unmarried, with severe heart trouble and no longer looking for legal excuses to murder people. Every chance he gets - and I mean EVERY chance - he lets everyone at the table know he was LAPD during the 80's and EVERY anecdote he shares is about some black dude he arrested or shook down. EVERY subject that's brought up immediately relates to black people. Talking football? How about that Kaepernick fella? Movies? Man, remember when OJ Simpson was in Naked Gun movies? Every "joke" is rooted in racism. It's loving awful, made worse by the fact that he's genuinely trying to be..."nice", I guess. Meaning he seems to be kind of reaching out to customers and staff.

He also makes a point to let everyone know that he LOVES Chris Rock. See if you can guess why and what his favorite bit might be?

I swear to god that his biggest professional regret is being off work the day they beat the christ about of Rodney King.

I hate him.

I am the most skeptical person alive, and I don’t trust TV clowns at all, but Candace Owens is right when she says this outlandish story has legs.

To me, a big red flag is when the police start harassing journalists (or anyone else, for that matter) doing research on a story. If the story is an outlandish lie, then the research should be encouraged.

Certainly for alt-right, a term which is a smear, a perjorative, used in the media. It is along the same lines as homophobia, white nationalist, Christian nationalist, etc., an attempt to slam natural impulses of sane people.

It is irritating to see conservatives pick up the lingo of the MSM and parrot it like it is legitimate.

Macron is a sick little fish.

He shook hands with Trump once and left Trump’s hand red and bruised. He evidently was trying to make Trump kneel, and probably exercised his grip to ready for the chance.

Trump did not kneel, which sometimes is the normal response to that kind of extremely painful ambush.
