 Not really getting your point. I never mentioned collectivist greater good. I don’t care what you think, is that better ? I’m not a fan of corporate greed, just me. And I’m wealthy if that makes it easier, which i also have no problem with 🤷‍♂️

 In fact I’m so wealthy and non collectivist I’m going to put more butter on my toast than is advised 😉

 My point was, “corporate greed” is just more Marxist newspeak language to demonize profit.  Without profit, we would have less connected people and no society.  I don’t think you are a commie I just think the mind virus of it is everywhere, in our (bitcoiners) language and way of thinking.

 Maybe, but not from me. I grew up in 80s London around the city boys loadsa money BS and their condescension to others. Microstrategy has that feel. Just not for me that’s all

 They are exploiting fiat (without being a bank) like no company has ever done - a harbinger of the collapse of fiat, and I am elated.
