Read_675 - Stop Drinking the Elite's Kool-aid [Nayib Bukele]

Nov 18 2022 • 51m

Show Notes

"They used to own everything, and in a way they still do; the media, the banks, the NGOs, the international organizations, and almost all the governments and corporations in the world.
And with that, of course, they also own the armies, the loans, the money supply, the credit ratings, the narrative, the propaganda, the factories, the food supply; they control international trade and international law. But their most powerful weapon is the control of the “truth”." - Nayib Bukele

Today we read and dive into a big picture of the perspective on El Salvador and their bitcoin "bet." The mainstream media is in lockstep telling us that it is a disaster, that they are ready to default, and their bet has resulting in declining credit worthiness and loss of financial stability. But is this true? What is really happening, and why would the mainstream be so apt to make us think the end is near, if it wasn't true? Don't miss the cover story of the "Orange Pill Issue" of Bitcoin Magazine.

"I know you're taking it in the teeth out there, but the first guy through the wall, he always gets bloody. Always. This is a threat not just to the way they do business, but in their minds it's threatening the game. But really what its threatening is their livelihoods, their jobs. It's threatening the way that they do things. And every time that happens, whether it's a government or a way of doing business or whatever it is... the people who are holding the reigns, have their hands on the switch... they go batshit crazy." - Moneyball

I heard you were looking for more boosts. A good way to get more is to read them on the show, perhaps you could do a segment at the end of each show. I also recommend getting Sir Spencer Wolf of the Bowl After Bowl Podcast to come on your show. He is a KC Bitcoiner, node runner, podcaster, a value for value consultant and just the greatest person you will ever talk to.

Been listening to your cast off and on for a little bit and I feel so rude for not sending a boost yet. This read is great. I had no idea that President Bukele was such a good writer, though I've always loved his one liners via tweets or media. Maybe he had some great editors, but I really enjoyed this episode and am doubling down in catching up on previous Bitcoin Audible episodes, thank you for your work and your take on these reads.
