I’m not simping lmao. I just recognize it as a spectacle. Paul is an entertainer that made money off me and you. That’s not easy to do regardless of your moral character lol picking a fight with a legend like Tyson is not easy to do. Im not saying it isn’t easy to beat him. Im saying it’s not easy to even be acknowledged by Tyson. He wouldn’t even give you the time of day, let alone a fight with you. Paul won the fight before he even stepped in the ring.
The fact you gave this shit attention and helped him make money says more about you. Elon does the same thing. He puts on a show. Whether you like it or not, people like spectacles. It’s a flaw in humans. Most are dumb enough to fall for it. And it doesn’t mean you are a simp if you recognize how skilled people like this are at creating spectacles.
Jake Paul is a scumbag but you don’t have to like Jake Paul to acknowledge that he understands power. Trump does something similar. Andrew Tate as well. If you get emotionally swept away or frustrated by these polarizing personalities, then you’ve been manipulated. It’s all a show. Bread and circuses. Just enjoy the fiat clown world without getting triggered. https://image.nostr.build/92ad64460759dedeac212b2af6482a61f4a1bd649f705fa34219dbcea7ce802e.jpg
How is that simping? He made so much money off this. That doesn’t mean he isn’t a piece of shit but you can acknowledge the scumbag knows how to make a show.
I think there is a specific population of people that understand fiat but don’t trust technology. He is selling to them most likely. A lot of people can’t accept that something non physical can be money.
A friend reached out and told me I was right about Bitcoin and admitted that it is legit. He was happy for me getting in “early” which is funny because I always felt late to the party. He bought a little off my recommendation a while ago but is talking about buying more on the next dip LOL. Normies don't know their faces are about to be ripped off.
Yeah this friend of mine doesn’t seem to understand that the price isn’t really important when you have a long enough timeframe. They’re still thinking in terms of fiat. We can’t really blame them when they haven’t put much time into studying this stuff. I can’t count how many books, articles, and podcasts I’ve learned from to get to this point.
