Will be an interesting year.

Frankly I am stunned musk decided to tell the truth. About the bill.

Go back in time to Tricky Dick Nixon the last time the rich paid 50% tax.

It's about 55 years of tax discounts for the rich and the county is pushing 36 trillion debt soon to be 40trillion

Then the trumpeter defaults I figure 2027 or maybe early 2028.

 Why would Elon "telling it like it is" stun you? He's always been blunt.  It's a shitty bill and he's not the only one saying it but that's what you get with anything that goes through congress... big shitty bills, small shitty bills... pretty much just shitty bills and generally, you get that with a democratically elected government hell-bent on spending other people's money even before they can even earn it.  Don't worry, you'll get to vote again someday.

South Korea elects pro-crypto Lee as their new president.

This will be a good impact to the bitcoin community.

After the kidnapping of a ledger founder a couple months ago (and his losing a finger) in France, a couple weeks ago the father of a crypto entrepreneur was kidnapped and then freed by police, and soon after the daughter of another one fought of criminals trying to kidnap her.

Scary times.

So far it seems that it has been "brains" hiring small time criminals, who are in way over their head, but if they hire professional people, it could turn ugly. For all we know it already happened and was kept secret by the victim...

There could be some PSYOP components to both the happenings and the publication of these kinds of matters.

Solution: Stay anonymous
Satoshi wasn't a fool for creating Bitcoin out of anonymity 

Are you going to become afraid to interact with people about bitcoin?  If everyone is afraid and peer to peer transactions are not being carried out because too many folks are pussies, then bitcoin loses a lot of its power and its empowerment of normies.

"They" want you ("us") to be scared, and seems like it is working.

Musk attacks the BBB
So the muskless trumpeter has made an enemy.

So with musk v Trump
Who will win out?
This should be a true battle royale .

musk:
has (or will have) dirt on everyone as basically everyones data that was ever entered anywhere into a government computer is being AI mined for dirt and other interesting oddities from when musks minions installing custom hardware/software in government system all over the joint.
has almost as much money as God

can shut down prolly 50% of USA gov and civilian internet from his control of starlink
does cool drugs
trump:
can point at anyone and cause them to disappear

can create retroactive laws
has absolute immunity

There are quite a few folks who have been surprised for how long they had been able to stay "a team," since they are both narcissistic drama queens.

Trump needs a scapegoat too, and yeah, maybe he would not dare to bring charges upon Elon.. .. . .yet neither of them seem scared off by shit stirring.

There may even be a bit of purposefulness to some of the drama, too.. but yeah, even drama can get out of hand.. It was like when I was in high school and several of the guys would be horsing around, and my cousin tended to stay out of the horsing around, and he would say, "I already know where that goes."

Bitcoin no longer need much publicity and interaction, we can't keep endangering our lives in our quest for a Bitcoin-friendly atmosphere.
Better we wait for the appropriate time when we'll not longer be scared of being Bitcoin enthusiasts.

"They" want you ("us") to be scared, and seems like it is working.

Yeah they do, but are we really scared? We are only "out of sight" not "out of mind"

I am not against each of us attempting to protect ourselves, yet at the same time, it seems to me that you are glossing over my point that relates to using bitcoin and even interacting with people who use bitcoin, which are good things.  Bitcoin meet ups and other ways of interacting with our communities in bitcoin ways can also be good for each of us and good for bitcoin too.

No one is forcing you.

You do what you like, including if you want to stay quite about your bitcoin and ONLY perfrom KYC transactions through approved channels.  That's your choice.

I will pretend not to have seen a fish holding a Pistol..

Pistol Shrimp: The Fastest Gun in the Sea.

Being called a shrimp doesn't exactly make you known for having sizable strength or an intimidating presence. But there's one little weird wonder of the sea — the pistol shrimp — that crushes the stereotype in a dramatic way. It's so powerful it not only shoots and annihilates its prey; it has thrown the U.S. Navy off track, landed a superhero role on Netflix and even helped researchers make strides in fighting climate change. Pistol shrimp, also known as snapping shrimp, earn their sea cred by creating something that's seemingly childlike and innocuous: bubbles. But these definitely aren't your ordinary bubbles — they make a sound louder than a gun and generate massive amounts of heat.

Pistol shrimp "shoot" these deadly bubbles to kill prey, jackhammer into rock to create burrows or protect said burrows from other, jealous shrimp. They have no need for a fancy holster or to stock up on ammo — their gun is built right into their one, oversized snapper claw that can grow to be half the size of their tiny body.

These sharp-shooting crustaceans are far from quiet — their bubbles have measured in at 218 decibels, which is louder than a speeding bullet. To us humans the sound isn't actually that loud, but that's due to the blast only lasting a tiny fraction of a second.

When the bubble pops, it generates heat that reaches 8,000 degrees Fahrenheit (4,427 degrees Celsius), four times hotter than lava. The heat dissipates at rapid speed so there are no lasting effects (except to the unfortunate small creature that felt its burn).

The Bullseye Pistol Shrimp.

Source.

I am a bit disappointed that the real one is not holding a tiny gun. But I do like the shrimp ranking of coiners. Can we use it to bully no-coiners?

Cool science fact: The pistol shrimp's "gun" is so powerful, it generates sonoluminescence, which is a burst of light from the imploding bubble it creates. Physicists still do not understand the exact mechanism behind it. Basically a Kamehameha.

do not copy/paste. at least give a source, what are you trying to do?

My guess: he's trying to get ignored by the largest possible number of WOers. Were it not for your quote, I wouldn't have seen his unattributed plagiarism.
