RE: Current Events: Stop Drinking the Kool-Aid

in LeoFinancelast year

I would not so quickly conflate martial law with "at war with the citizens",
but I certainly can't fault you for it.

It is very obvious he is a dictator.
It is not so obvious if he is a bad one (although that is clearly the standard).
Of course given time all dictators would seem to backslide into absolute corruption.
Or stabbed 23 times on the senate floor.

Still, this situation is an interesting one, regardless of his problematic nature.

Sort:  

Anyone hiding the fact that their nation is under Martial Law is a Decepticon.

IMHO, he's pimpin' bitcoin so that his serfs get crucified, like the real El Salvador, when bitcoin plummets. This is so that the people become desperate enough to accept the future USDR slave token.

His mission is to leave them as destitute as possible. If he really wanted to help them he would be saying things like:

"Grow your own foods."

"It's better to barter than to use fiat."

"We're under Martial Law."

etc.

You could well be right that El Salvador is being ruled by a Machiavellian and malevolent dictator. However, presently the people of El Salvador are greatly benefiting from that dictatorship. That is the definition of a benevolent dictator.

He's not the designer of the El Salvador flag. Are you implying that if only he redesigned the flag with no gold trim, removed the spear point on the flagpole, and it had a picture of kittehs and duckys on it that would make El Salvador a proper democracy?

It's a meaningless issue. What does matter is that crime in El Salvador is down ~90% and his approval rating by the El Salvador people is ~90%.

I actually agree with you regarding BTC. It's not a privacy coin. It's centralized by PoW controlled by massively capitalized miners that are able to prevent transactions from occurring by charging as much as 25% for processing the transaction, as happened when BTC first mooned. People tried to sell at the top and could not get their transactions processed by miners.

Sadly, Hive is just as vulnerable to being centralized by capital, exactly as was demonstrated on Steem. Hive has not substantively improved governance because the largest stakeholders on the platform currently control governance through that mechanism, and intend to retain their control.

I disagree you are privy to knowledge of his mission. It is statistically likely you are right, but that is not certainty, and despite the likelihood of his dictatorship becoming as bad or worse as his predecessor's, the fact is that presently it is vastly better for the people of El Salvador, and other than biting the bullet and somehow acquiring decentralized means of production of modern blessings of civilization that destitute peasants simply do not have the financial means or education to do, a benevolent dictator is about the best they can hope for.

Contrast his administration's performance with Biden's, and Biden's blatant lies regarding the energy prices that are the result of his direct actions being the fault of Putin, corporate profiteers, or angry sky gods.

Any hope potential to the people of El Salvador to uplift them from the desperate poverty they have been afflicted with by generations of deceptive despots is dramatically better than the abject desperation that has been all they have known throughout the history of their plantation nation.

I would have recommended Monero, but BTC is better than CBDCs IMHO.

Are you familiar with Maritime law? Law of the flag? Postal mechanics?

This esoteric information goes back thousands of years. It's a lot for me to cover in a single comment.

If you want to dive deeper into this I recommend learning about quantum grammar.

Here's a video of what I mean:

Law of the Flag is mentioned @ 1:31:00

@valued-customer

Yeah I mean look at how slick he is.
He legit looks like a snake in a nice suit.
When he's not wearing the backwards cap to be 'hip'.
