NBTTT: my little rant from last night

So yeah, I should have just kept my f**king mouth shut, which has been my policy for f**king ages. Wish I could do a take back, but there we are. At the end of the day, who cares though? It's just me being a t**t on the internet, which means I should blend in pretty well with the army of other t**ts on the internet.

That said (and I already know nobody will), if you can spare a couple of hours, I'd really encourage you to listen to this.

It's a long interview with Gary Stevenson, author of a best selling book, ex trader and now inequality campaigner. Fair warning its long, and there are bits you might want to skip. It also has a clickbait title about bitcoin, but really its not about that at all, its about his life and world view.

Honestly, I think this is the best unifying analysis of what the f**k is going on these days, and why things are feeling quite f**ked, how we are all barking up the wrong tree, and how its going to get much worse. It's not about there being too many foreigners here now. It's perfectly simple...inequality.

Regardless of what you believe....whether you're left, right, anti immigrant, a free marketeer, anti-woke, a die hard soclialist, an idealist, a pragmatist.....give it a listen. If you can't make it through all of it, just do these bits.

1:02:30 Elon and politics
1:08:00 Wealth is being transferred from the ordinary to the rich
1:21:30 Inequality

Maybe it's time that everyone had a think about things, rather than just picking a side in the woke war and ranting. Or not, that's the other option.
