Imagine going back in time to the 1500s. You can only take one technology with you: the freezer. For the purpose of this thought experiment, we will pretend you’ve also got a way to power it. Now imagine you show the freezer to some peasants in a village. At first, they will probably be most interested in its craftsmanship. They’ve never seen such perfectly smooth metal, the astoundingly high-quality hinge, and the interior of the box magically lights up when opened. (more…)

If you’re new to high finance, then the concept of “shorting” is bizarre and convoluted. People actually make money from stocks falling? How is this possible? Why is it legal? Does this contribute anything to society? Am I missing out? Here’s how shorting works.
Let’s say you have a neighbor who is a cat lady that collects Beanie Babies. She has one prized beanie called Roary the Lion, worth $5000 (according to the intellectual darkweb, where these things are traded). (more…)

Part 5 of 5 (Part 1 here, Part 4 here)
JM: One of the things that really infuriates me is people willing to toss out tradition, history, heritage, as if they don’t matter. “Why do you care that you’re white? Why do you care about your culture, history, country?” Any of those questions. It seems very common sense to me that this is my group, my culture, my family. I don’t know why I should ever have to defend that. And in so many conversations I do. I don’t understand how it even becomes controversial to begin with. (more…)

Part 3 of 5 (Part 1 here, Part 2 here, Part 4 here)
JM: Our laws were written in that way to say this is what we have, a white country, and European nation. It’s only recently, because of mass transportation, that we’ve had so many nonwhites moving in. It’s an unheard of idea to say we don’t like that. (more…)

Is there any validity to that argument? That you’re just a white supremacist, etc. I have my own response to this, but I’m curious how you’d respond. (more…)

Bitcoin is one subject that causes a lot of disagreement. Many people think it’s a scam. It’s often cited jokingly as the cause of someone’s wealth, or their poverty. It has been around for more than a decade, and yet many people still file it away in their minds as “that newfangled thing that’s a bubble that will fall to zero any day now.” (more…)
