 Yo, I really need to go down the McAfee rabbit hole.   
Dude may have been one of the most interesting men in the world.  

They gotta make a movie about this dude.

 What a G 
 I know one of his close friends in Belize. A wild guy, interesting and worthy of telling. There are plenty of people to query. 
 I only started hearing about John McAfee once I joined NOSTR. 
 That's funny, for me it was after getting into #Bitcoin

 I think I saw a documentary with the same title a while back.  It's was crazy.  I really should watch it again.   Thanks for the book rec. 
 Ah we should totes have a movie night with all the good films related. 

I have a copy of The International if you're interested.

 Brilliant.  I haven't seen this movie.  It looks good. 
 Talk about someone who refused to live a boring life 
 'We don't wanna get killed by them either... so we're probably not going to air that"

How many times has that been said throughout the years?

They feed us everything BUT the truth.

What the fuck is the most of journalism if everyone is too afraid to share the truth.

It's exactly how we wound up here.

Too many pussies. 
 *what the fuck is the POINT of journalism

 Honestly, what he is saying COULD be true, but he is such human garbage himself & always on some sort of coke fueled rant that there is really no way to know if anything he says is real. 
 That's a valid point. 
 I believe there is a documentary “Gringo: The Dangerous Life of John McAfee” 
 Sweet. Thanks for letting me know. 
 From what I remember I believed he was a  bit of a nut job after watching,,,,,,, however he is definitely interesting 
 For sure a nut job.  I've known drug addicts before and he def has that vibe.
