i can explain this an even further way, disclaimer: am i really under researched in the bitcoin space, yes. do i know who the power brokers are or whatever, no. again, i dont even know who saylor ~is~ like what saylor does all day, i do know what he looks like. i know what odell looks like, his voice, etc so, when it comes to claims, of any kind, about anything there are people with perceived power, and actual power (and often that overlaps), the people who can grant grants, etc, fund shit, etc, recommend you for a job, etc and people who cant cos they dont have anything like that to offer, are not invested, dont have monetary incentives or pressures long way of saying: if you come across a spurious claim and then put it thru: 'would a general audience member reasonably presume <insert name> [jack dorsey, saylor, odell, gladstein (hrf), lyn alden] would be pleased re: the public narrative comms of them as a company persona brand' if the answer is yes, that claim deserves way way more scrutiny as in, ~also~ prove to me why this isnt dicksucking propaganda fanboy fangirl shit View quoted note →
