I think most countries spy on their citizens

we should not be OK with that

the man has rarely been proven wrong in anything tech related he has said

Presumably because they haven’t invested in AI.

Presumably is carrying all the weight of your whole post here

Perhaps we could get a non-biased opinion and also from an actual expert rather than some finance ghoul who really doesn’t know anything?

we all need a little swap here and there, right

We all share the same planet.

Maybe it’s time to share everything else. Why should we need to live in poverty while folks up north are living large?

Fuck them all rich countries. They got dirty rich exploring the global south and now want them to be condemned to be eternally poor.

Crypto has been hitting all time highs this year; there’s just more bros than before.

There’s a sucker born every minute

I hope this POS lives enough to be jailed for the heaps of crimes he commited but I’m not holding my breath, justice in Brazil is slower than a sleepy drunk snail
