Speaker 1: All right, welcome back. You are listening to the Mark
Speaker 1: mo Show and we are talking, of course each and
Speaker 1: every week about the decentralized revolution, and we are running
Speaker 1: through some of the biggest headlines of the week, and
Speaker 1: we look at it through the lens of politics, finance,
Speaker 1: and technology. We mostly just talk about the finance side
Speaker 1: of things. Of course, on the technology side bitcoin, which
Speaker 1: is leading the decentralized revolution. But you've got to look
Speaker 1: at the whole picture if you really want to understand
Speaker 1: the context of what's going on. And so we look
Speaker 1: at all the different news articles and I saw one
Speaker 1: this week that was very concerning. So we saw the
Speaker 1: G twenty Leaders of the world. So these are the
Speaker 1: top twenty nations in the world we're meeting. One big
Speaker 1: question I have is why in the heck was claud Schwab,
Speaker 1: the head of the World Economic Forum. Why was he
Speaker 1: there presenting to the G twenty. What top twenty nation
Speaker 1: does he run? Of course, the answer is none. He
Speaker 1: is not an elected leader, He is not a part
Speaker 1: of any company or or say country, So why is
Speaker 1: he there then talking to the G twenty telling them
Speaker 1: that they need to rebuild the world in the way
Speaker 1: that he sees fit. I don't understand that part. But
Speaker 1: that's a whole different topic for a whole another time.
Speaker 1: But one thing that was very shocking and scary and uh,
Speaker 1: maybe we still have some time to push back on
Speaker 1: if you don't like it. But the G twenty leaders
Speaker 1: issued a joint declaration promoting global health passports to facilitate
Speaker 1: international travel. Big news coming out this week as they
Speaker 1: all met in Indonesia for the seventeenth annual summit under
Speaker 1: the name quote Recover Together, Recover Stronger, Big, big, big deal.
Speaker 1: So yeah, top twenty countries responsible for more than eight
Speaker 1: percent of the world's gross domestic products, and mean, if
Speaker 1: I was in a global trade and six of the
Speaker 1: world's total population all got together, it's nineteen countries, UM,
Speaker 1: nine in countries and the European Union And so basically
Speaker 1: they got together and they issued a joint declaration at
Speaker 1: the end of the summit advocating for universal standard on
Speaker 1: proof of vaccination for international travel and urging the creation
Speaker 1: of quote a global digital health network. Mm hmm. Sounds
Speaker 1: uh sort of like China's social credit course system. They
Speaker 1: want to have basically a big database where they can
Speaker 1: all share information and they could make all of us
Speaker 1: then have to show like an app um that would
Speaker 1: allow us to move around freely. Well not freely, because
Speaker 1: they'll take away our ability to move freely. Instead, they'll
Speaker 1: make a series of checkpoints and gateways that we have
Speaker 1: to go through. There was a story that I heard
Speaker 1: when I was a kid, and it was like, how
Speaker 1: to catch a wild boar, how to catch a wild pig?
Speaker 1: And uh, I grew up in Texas, and so we
Speaker 1: used to do quite a bit of hunting back there.
Speaker 1: And you'd set up like a you'd set up a
Speaker 1: feeder and you would throw corn on the ground every day.
Speaker 1: And you'd set up this feeder and you'd set it's
Speaker 1: a program. It like at five o'clock every day, it
Speaker 1: throws corn on the ground. And what happens is then
Speaker 1: the animals start to realize that the corn comes on
Speaker 1: the ground every day at the same time, and then
Speaker 1: the animals come in and then of course you can
Speaker 1: go hunt them. But if I want to catch a
Speaker 1: wild pig one way, and I want to do it
Speaker 1: live on, one thing I could do is I could
Speaker 1: put corn on the ground every day and then as
Speaker 1: this pig comes in and gets the corner every day.
Speaker 1: Then eventually I build a wall on one side, but
Speaker 1: the pig doesn't notice, and he still gets the corner
Speaker 1: every day. And then eventually I build a second wall,
Speaker 1: and the pig doesn't notice, and he still comes and
Speaker 1: gets the corner of day. And then I build a
Speaker 1: third wall, and then finally one day he comes in
Speaker 1: and I add the fourth wall, And each one of
Speaker 1: these things are another wall that's being put around us. Now,
Speaker 1: you might be the type of person that believes that
Speaker 1: you don't know what you're doing, and you don't know
Speaker 1: what's going on in the world, and you just want
Speaker 1: someone to tell you what to do and keep you
Speaker 1: safe and just put you in a cage and bring
Speaker 1: you that meal every day. I just don't believe that,
Speaker 1: and so we might have a big discrepancy in our viewpoint.
Speaker 1: You know. I like to think of it like a
Speaker 1: lion that lives on the on the pride, right, a
Speaker 1: lion in the pride out on the on the plane,
Speaker 1: and the lion is the king. Right. The lion can
Speaker 1: basically kill any animal at once. It's the top of
Speaker 1: the food chain, right, the alpha, the apex predator, if
Speaker 1: you will, But it's not it's not safe for that lion.
Speaker 1: The lion is free, but it's not safe. And so
Speaker 1: you know that lion has to fight other lions and
Speaker 1: has to you know, um kill its prey. If it doesn't,
Speaker 1: it could starve to death. It has to you know,
Speaker 1: run from hunters and all those types of things. But
Speaker 1: it's free, and we could take that line. We could
Speaker 1: go put it in a cage in a zoo, and
Speaker 1: we can keep that lion safe, and we can give
Speaker 1: it its antibiotics and it's it's hormones and and we
Speaker 1: can we can throw it at one meal a day,
Speaker 1: and that lion is safe in that cage, but it's
Speaker 1: not free. And so freedom and safety are not the
Speaker 1: same things. Unfortunately, a free life is not necessarily safe life,
Speaker 1: and vice versa. And so you know, if you're the
Speaker 1: type of person that that wants the government to just
Speaker 1: basically throw you in a cage and give your antibiotics
Speaker 1: and one meal a day, well, this is the world
Speaker 1: that they're bringing. So maybe you like that. For me,
Speaker 1: I don't like it, um. And you know, each one
Speaker 1: of these things is one step closer to that. The
Speaker 1: other thing that I really don't like is I don't
Speaker 1: like this uh global cooperation, this did this global network,
Speaker 1: because I don't believe that one group of people know
Speaker 1: what's best for the entire world. They don't have the information.
Speaker 1: Their version of utopia is probably not my version of utopia,
Speaker 1: and and I'm I'm more than happy to realize that
Speaker 1: my version of utopia is not yours either. And that's
Speaker 1: why there is no such thing as utopia, because one
Speaker 1: man's version is maybe another man's hell. And so I
Speaker 1: am smart enough to know that my version of utopia
Speaker 1: isn't yours, which is why I'm not trying to make
Speaker 1: laws and rules and regulations for you, which is why
Speaker 1: we shouldn't have one group of people making laws and
Speaker 1: rules and regulations for everybody. Now, we also know that
Speaker 1: good ideas are found through competition. You try your idea,
Speaker 1: let me try my idea, and let's compete and see
Speaker 1: which one works better. But instead, if they have some
Speaker 1: global initiative where they pass this to everybody, where there's
Speaker 1: no way to opt out, there's no way to try
Speaker 1: another um another way, will never know which way is
Speaker 1: better or worse. Now we know that if you've ever
Speaker 1: spent time going to the Department of motor vehicles or
Speaker 1: something like that. When the government has no competition, how
Speaker 1: is their product and their service? It's very poor? Right?
Speaker 1: And so because when when when when companies are forced
Speaker 1: to compete, we know we get better products, service and prices,
Speaker 1: not for uh, one group of people making global global
Speaker 1: laws to um go over everybody, Nor am I for
Speaker 1: the safe and less free option. That's happening. But it's
Speaker 1: exactly what's happening with our money. So central bank digital
Speaker 1: currencies which are coming down the pipeline, which again are
Speaker 1: programmable money. So if you don't do what they say,
Speaker 1: then your money doesn't work. If you don't spend your
Speaker 1: money by Friday, it comes back to you. If you're
Speaker 1: saving too much, you have a negative interest rate. Uh.
Speaker 1: If you want to try and spend it on red meat,
Speaker 1: which we think is bad for you, then you can't
Speaker 1: buy that, right or whatever? Baby, or you don't have
Speaker 1: your passport, your health passport, and now you can't use
Speaker 1: your money to buy travel, a plane ticket, a train
Speaker 1: ticket or whatever. There's a very very very scary world
Speaker 1: that we're going into where one small group of people
Speaker 1: are going to try to dictate the freedoms and the
Speaker 1: movements of otherwise free people. You know, in the United States,
Speaker 1: we are found did with the with the pursuit of life,
Speaker 1: liberty and happiness, which was actually taken from life liberty
Speaker 1: and property and life liberty and property means that my
Speaker 1: life is my property to do as I see fit.
Speaker 1: Of course they don't like that. And so anyway, that's
Speaker 1: a big headline coming out this week, something that you
Speaker 1: should be aware of as we talk about the world changing,
Speaker 1: the decentralized world. It seems like the world is centralizing
Speaker 1: under one control. I believe this breaks and it moves
Speaker 1: to decentralization. I have some more headlines to show how
Speaker 1: this world is transitioning into this decentralized revolution that we
Speaker 1: talked about every week. So I got a couple more
Speaker 1: stories I want to break for you that are very
Speaker 1: important that you keep your eye on. I'll be back
Speaker 1: with those and more in a minute. Don't go away,
Speaker 1: I'll be right back. All right, Welcome back. You are
Speaker 1: listening to the Mark mo Show. We're talking about the
Speaker 1: decentralized revolution that we talked about each and every week.
Speaker 1: As we look at it through the lens of politics, finance,
Speaker 1: and technology, and there's a lot going on. You know,
Speaker 1: I talked about this decentralized revolution as the world is
Speaker 1: moving the pendulum swinging. It's been swinging on, truning for
Speaker 1: to your time frame, to a world of centralization, and
Speaker 1: now we can see that it's pushing back and we're
Speaker 1: moving back the opposite direction into a world of de centralization.
Speaker 1: And like I said, I like to look at it
Speaker 1: through all of those things. Now. One of the things
Speaker 1: that's leading us into this new world is of course politics, finance,
Speaker 1: and technology, the financial peace. We know that we're at
Speaker 1: the end of a hundred year sovereign debt crisis. Um
Speaker 1: all the governments of the round of the world are
Speaker 1: going bankrupt. If you've noticed what's happened with this whole
Speaker 1: FTX situation where they basically collapsed almost overnight and took
Speaker 1: everybody's money with them, you can understand that that's a
Speaker 1: perfect microcosm for what's happening in the greater financial system.
Speaker 1: And just like it was the small cryptocurrency companies that
Speaker 1: went down first, and now it's taking out bigger and
Speaker 1: bigger ones, exactly what's happened in the greater financial system.
Speaker 1: And so we've already seen the small countries, the Venezuelas,
Speaker 1: the Zimbabwe's go down. Then we've seen the Perus, the
Speaker 1: Ecuadors go down, We've seen the Lebanons. Now Turkey he
Speaker 1: is going down. Now we're about to witness Japan, which
Speaker 1: might be the next one. Japan, and then the UK
Speaker 1: and then the Euro going down, and eventually it comes
Speaker 1: to roost in the United States and the dollar as well.
Speaker 1: The FED trying to control the monetary policy, the inflation
Speaker 1: and everything around the financial system. The United States is
Speaker 1: up against a serious, serious problem. And there was a
Speaker 1: story that came out this week that is something that
Speaker 1: that basically said the quiet part out loud, the part
Speaker 1: that they haven't really said, but I've been trying to
Speaker 1: make sure that you hear. But they actually came out
Speaker 1: and said it right now. And so we know that
Speaker 1: the Federal Reserve is trying to fight inflation, and so
Speaker 1: their goal is to restrict the monetary supply um to
Speaker 1: bring prices down what they consider inflation or prices going higher.
Speaker 1: They want to bring prices down. Of course, I've talked
Speaker 1: about this. It's very simple supply and demand. If you
Speaker 1: want to bring prices down, you either one bring more
Speaker 1: supply to the market, or two, you reduce the demand
Speaker 1: and the central banks, the Federal Reserve cannot bring more
Speaker 1: supply to the market. They can't bring more oil or
Speaker 1: gas to the market. They can't bring more food to
Speaker 1: the market. So the only thing they can do is
Speaker 1: crush demand. How do they crush demand by making you pour?
Speaker 1: A better? Better said, by making you broke. If they
Speaker 1: can make you broke, then you don't want to drive
Speaker 1: your car, you don't want to go out to dinner,
Speaker 1: and you don't want to go onification. Sounds bad, doesn't it?
Speaker 1: The job of the Federal Reserve their goal right now?
Speaker 1: They're stated goal. I'll say their stated goal isn't to
Speaker 1: try to bring prices down so your life is easier.
Speaker 1: Their life is to make Their goal is to make
Speaker 1: your life harder by making you broke, so that then
Speaker 1: prices come down they can say they won. So in
Speaker 1: order for them to win, they must make you broke.
Speaker 1: How's that sound not so good? Right? So their goal
Speaker 1: is for your retirement account to cut in half, for
Speaker 1: your home value to get cut in half um, and
Speaker 1: for a lot of you to lose your jobs, and
Speaker 1: for your jobs or the new job that you might
Speaker 1: find to pay you less money. The fact that more
Speaker 1: people are working, and more importantly, the fact that you're
Speaker 1: getting paid more for your job is in direct contrast
Speaker 1: to what they want. Now, I know that sounds really bad.
Speaker 1: That sounds um Maybe it's a controversial, maybe conspiratorial. You're
Speaker 1: like Mark, there's no way the Fed doesn't really want that.
Speaker 1: The FETs trying to do the best they can for
Speaker 1: the economy. Well, they said the quiet part out loud.
Speaker 1: As a matter of fact, the story came out this week.
Speaker 1: It says right here, quote, wage growth has been a
Speaker 1: contributing factor to inflation, especially in the service sector. So
Speaker 1: it's important to get the labor market into better balance,
Speaker 1: to bring future wage growth down to a more sustainable
Speaker 1: level that will assist in moving overall inflation lower end. Quote,
Speaker 1: let me break that down for you. Wage growth, So
Speaker 1: the fact that you're getting paid more money has been
Speaker 1: a contributing factor to inflation. So, first of all, wage
Speaker 1: growth has been flat as a matter of fact, when
Speaker 1: you adjusted for inflation. So when Biden was elected president,
Speaker 1: I believe gas was in like the two dollars and
Speaker 1: thirty cent range, So they it's like three fifty or
Speaker 1: four dollars, So gas has gone up by whatever fifty
Speaker 1: Have your wages gone up by fifty or sixty percent?
Speaker 1: You were making a hundred thousand before and now you're
Speaker 1: making a no. Uh. In that same two year time span,
Speaker 1: home prices are up about thirty five. Has your pay
Speaker 1: gone up by thirty uh? Steak has gone up, airline
Speaker 1: travel has gone up. Have your wages gone up to
Speaker 1: keep up with the rising price of everything else? Of
Speaker 1: course the answer is no. So that means that the
Speaker 1: quality of your life is going down. Out. That means
Speaker 1: that you work just the same amount and you're not
Speaker 1: able to afford the things that you used to afford,
Speaker 1: So your wages are not growing enough to keep up
Speaker 1: with that. But here it says, I'm gonna read it again,
Speaker 1: wage growth has been a contributing factor to inflation. So
Speaker 1: they're saying that the reason why prices are going up
Speaker 1: so much because you're getting paid more, but you're not
Speaker 1: getting paid enough. It says, uh, it's important to bring
Speaker 1: the labor market and wage growth down. Wage growth down,
Speaker 1: so they want you to your pay raises to go
Speaker 1: down to assist with inflation. And this is by a
Speaker 1: member of the Federal Reserve six member board Christopher Wallace.
Speaker 1: That's what he said. Wage growth, it's a contributing factor,
Speaker 1: and that's the problem. He said. Uh. At at any
Speaker 1: other time, I would be pretty unhappy about slowing growth,
Speaker 1: But not now, he said, So not now. Uh Now
Speaker 1: we need you to make less money. Now, we need um,
Speaker 1: you to get paid less. Now, we need more people
Speaker 1: to be unemployed. Too many people are working. That's the problem.
Speaker 1: And we'll see. When too many people are working, that
Speaker 1: means that means employers now have to compete for you. Right,
Speaker 1: there's not enough people to go around. So now there's
Speaker 1: a bidding war for employees, which is good, but not
Speaker 1: for them, not for the FED. That goes against everything
Speaker 1: that they want. It's a scary, scary world that we're in.
Speaker 1: You would think that their goal would be human flourishment.
Speaker 1: You would think their goal would be that you would
Speaker 1: have a better life. But that's certainly not the case
Speaker 1: the Federal Reserve, like I said, they can't just create
Speaker 1: more supply. All they can do is crush demand. Now
Speaker 1: they could, um, you know, they could incentivize people to
Speaker 1: make more right, they could take some of that money,
Speaker 1: those trillions of dollars they've printed in you know, sent
Speaker 1: over to Ukraine, for example. They could use that to
Speaker 1: bring more gas to the you know, people in the
Speaker 1: United States, to bring gas prices down. That would help.
Speaker 1: But instead now, instead they continue to shut oil and
Speaker 1: gas leases down, so we have less oil and gas
Speaker 1: than we had before. They could try to influence the
Speaker 1: government to relax regulations so that it's cheaper to run
Speaker 1: your business, but no, that wouldn't be the right way
Speaker 1: to do it. Instead, we want to crush demand. We
Speaker 1: want to make everybody broke. It's what they call the
Speaker 1: wealth effect. The wealth effect is that when you see
Speaker 1: your retirement account going up, when you see your house
Speaker 1: going up, you feel more wealthy. You feel more optimistic
Speaker 1: about the future. Dare I say happier? Right? When you're optimistic,
Speaker 1: you feel good about the future. You feel happier, you're
Speaker 1: in a generally in a better mood, and so then
Speaker 1: you're more productive. You're spending more money, which is good
Speaker 1: for businesses because now businesses have more customers. And when
Speaker 1: those customers have when those business and more customers, they
Speaker 1: sell more goods. Means they can buy more from the suppliers.
Speaker 1: Those suppliers do better, and everybody does good in that system.
Speaker 1: But when they crush demand, it's what's called the reverse
Speaker 1: wealth effect. When you see a retirement cutting half, in
Speaker 1: your home price cutting half, you feel poor, and then
Speaker 1: you feel pessimistic about the future. You feel scared, you
Speaker 1: feel uneasy, you feel anxious about the future, and so
Speaker 1: then you want to hoard. I don't want to spend.
Speaker 1: So now you don't go out, but think about the
Speaker 1: state of the of the nation or the world. At
Speaker 1: that point, you went from a state where everybody was
Speaker 1: optimistic and happy and peaceful and loving to a state
Speaker 1: where people are angry and bitter and scared and anxious
Speaker 1: about the future. Now, which world would you rather live in?
Speaker 1: I mean, I don't know about you. I'd rather live
Speaker 1: in a world where people are optimistic and happy and hopeful.
Speaker 1: That's the world I want to live in. But not
Speaker 1: the Fed. The Fed wants you to be angry and
Speaker 1: and scared of the future. And now you know, anyway,
Speaker 1: you're listening to the Market show, we're talking about the
Speaker 1: decentralized Revolution, breaking down some of the latest breaking news headlines.
Speaker 1: I got a lot more to cover when I come
Speaker 1: back in a minute. Don't go away. I'll be right back,
Speaker 1: all right, Welcome back. You are listening to the Mark
Speaker 1: Moss Show. We're talking about the decentralized Revolution, talking about
Speaker 1: the way the world is changing, of course, and we're
Speaker 1: looking at the latest breaking news of the week, some
Speaker 1: of the news headlines that kind of show us how
Speaker 1: the world is changing right before every eyes. And it's
Speaker 1: important to understand this because it brings everything into context.
Speaker 1: And so a couple of things that I'm seeing this
Speaker 1: week that we're pretty shocking. One big thing that I saw,
Speaker 1: which is, um, you know, we're on the other side
Speaker 1: of the mid term elections. I don't I don't like
Speaker 1: to typically spend a lot of time talking about politics
Speaker 1: necessarily unless it kind of corresponds with UH, finance and technology.
Speaker 1: We're looking at the intersection of those three things. But
Speaker 1: looking at that, we saw that the mood is really
Speaker 1: shifting towards some stories that were being broken about the
Speaker 1: Biden family, specifically maybe the Biden crime syndicate family. And
Speaker 1: it's not a story that I typically jump into, especially
Speaker 1: because of the amount of censorship that's been around this,
Speaker 1: but it's interesting to see how this whole landscape is
Speaker 1: shifting by a couple of things. And I think one
Speaker 1: is that trum or Twitter has now been taken over
Speaker 1: by Elon Musk, and he took it over privately. So
Speaker 1: Twitter was a publicly held corporation, and even though Jack Dorsey,
Speaker 1: the founder, was still the CEO, I believe he owned
Speaker 1: like less than five percent of the company and he
Speaker 1: wasn't really able to affect any change. And that's kind
Speaker 1: of the way it is when you have these big,
Speaker 1: publicly traded companies. Um, there's just so much bureaucracy. And
Speaker 1: so Elon Musk took it over and made it private,
Speaker 1: and now he's enacting massive amounts of change in a
Speaker 1: very very very short amount of time. Now there's all
Speaker 1: types of good things and bad things in that, I'm sure,
Speaker 1: and neither neither of us me or nor you listening
Speaker 1: I really know the intricacies of this, the ins and outs. Um,
Speaker 1: even if you worked at Twitter and we're maybe one
Speaker 1: of the people fired or subject to this, you maybe
Speaker 1: don't even understand this because these these complexes, these are
Speaker 1: complex issues. But what we do know is that things
Speaker 1: are happening very very fast, and not just within Twitter.
Speaker 1: But I believe in the greater um information space overall,
Speaker 1: and so we're seeing things happening. So for example, one, uh,
Speaker 1: Elon musk Man, he is uh, he's definitely a character
Speaker 1: and he let me let me just state for the record,
Speaker 1: I've never been a big Elon musk fan. Uh, mostly
Speaker 1: because of the business side of things, specifically in regards
Speaker 1: to Tesla and Solar City. Um, but I have been
Speaker 1: enjoying watching him on Twitter because he is just like
Speaker 1: the ultimate troll. A troll is like when you just
Speaker 1: kind of make fun of people and things like that,
Speaker 1: and he can troll with the best of them, if
Speaker 1: not the best of them. Maybe he's got somebody on
Speaker 1: his staff help with him. I don't know, but I
Speaker 1: mean his meme game is like on point, and he
Speaker 1: almost seems to be everywhere all times, like commenting on
Speaker 1: all types of people's um, you know post and I
Speaker 1: saw this week one that just got me so it
Speaker 1: was just so funny. Basically, CBS basically came out and
Speaker 1: said that they can't they can't trust Twitter anymore. Twitter
Speaker 1: is too dangerous. Let's see if I can find the
Speaker 1: exact tweet. Uh. Yeah, CBS News came out and said
Speaker 1: that they're going to suspend all Twitter activity due to
Speaker 1: uncertainty with Elon Musk's new leadership. Fearful, they said, of
Speaker 1: the uncertainty surrounding Elon must management on Twitter. CBS News
Speaker 1: announced that it would be suspending its usage of the
Speaker 1: social media site. Oh no, um. And then what was
Speaker 1: funny is they came out and said that, and then
Speaker 1: not more than twenty four hours later they came back
Speaker 1: and reversed that, and they said, well, you know what
Speaker 1: on on on other news. Um, you know, we're gonna
Speaker 1: we're gonna stay on Twitter, but we're going to you know,
Speaker 1: we're gonna observe, We're gonna watch, We're gonna see what happens.
Speaker 1: And Elon Must put out a picture it was like
Speaker 1: I don't know, like Brokeback Mountain or something like that,
Speaker 1: UM with like him with like a cowboy hat on
Speaker 1: and like someone else like hugging around his neck and
Speaker 1: he said like CBS, I can't quit me or something
Speaker 1: like that, which was just like I said, he can
Speaker 1: just troll with the best of them. You know. The
Speaker 1: thing with CBS is like they had to announce to
Speaker 1: the world that they were going to leave, and everybody cared.
Speaker 1: CBS News has eight point eight million followers or subscribers
Speaker 1: on Twitter, but when I scrolled through Twitter, it looks
Speaker 1: like their posts get about a hundred likes on average,
Speaker 1: maybe less even. I mean a lot of them get
Speaker 1: a less Um yeah, I mean I would say they
Speaker 1: get less than a hundred likes on their posts. With
Speaker 1: over eight million followers, it's like legacy media has a
Speaker 1: place on Twitter, but nobody cares like they post they
Speaker 1: followed them. A lot of people probably haven't gone through
Speaker 1: and unfollowed him. Um, but they're getting less than a
Speaker 1: hundred likes. Now my Twitter account, which is nowhere near that,
Speaker 1: I'm about just over a hundred thousand subscribers, which, by
Speaker 1: the way, if you're not following me on Twitter, you should.
Speaker 1: I put a lot of play by play information on
Speaker 1: there every day. It's just the one Mark Moss at
Speaker 1: one Mark Moss. But I have I have about a
Speaker 1: hundred thousand followers, and I'm probably getting like double the
Speaker 1: engagement rate, if not triple the engagement rate on average
Speaker 1: that they are. Um. So they came out and said, Hey,
Speaker 1: we're going to uh, you know, we're gonna suspend it
Speaker 1: because it's it's so dangerous and then like less than
Speaker 1: two days later, they're back and we're coming back, which
Speaker 1: is a joke. But I think the bigger thing that
Speaker 1: I kind of want to highlight is that it's forcing
Speaker 1: these news organizations to change the way they operate because
Speaker 1: they're being called out in real time. Like the amount
Speaker 1: of breaking news happening on Twitter happened so fast because
Speaker 1: it's like it's crowdsourced information and these centrally controlled news
Speaker 1: organizations that used to be able to control the narrative
Speaker 1: can no longer control the narrative. If if if they
Speaker 1: come out and say something, they might say, hey, you
Speaker 1: know there's a protest happening in Iran, for example, then uh,
Speaker 1: they can say that they could show some pictures showing that,
Speaker 1: but then all of a sudden, people on Twitter ago
Speaker 1: with a minute, I'm here right now, and it's not
Speaker 1: look like, here's pictures right. So they're not able to
Speaker 1: control the nerve that the news information moves too fast.
Speaker 1: And so a highlight of this this week has been
Speaker 1: a big pivot is that seat back to CBS has
Speaker 1: a massive pivot this week. I believe they are forced
Speaker 1: to pivot this week because they came out big time
Speaker 1: against the Hunter Biden laptop story. And if you remember,
Speaker 1: right before the presidential election, the Hunter Biden laptop broke
Speaker 1: and it's not about Hunter Biden, it's about the Biden family,
Speaker 1: specifically Joe Biden's relationship within that. And all this information
Speaker 1: came out on the about the laptop, and all the
Speaker 1: news outlets censored it, including Facebook, including CBS, etcetera. Now
Speaker 1: Mark Zuckerberg from Facebook went on Joe Rogan and said
Speaker 1: he was told to censor it by the FBI. CBS
Speaker 1: of course censored it, and now this week CBS confirms
Speaker 1: the Hunter Biden laptop is real, seven sixty nine days
Speaker 1: after The New York Post broke the story. Now you
Speaker 1: might remember the New York Post had its account canceled
Speaker 1: for even posting that story. Anybody that retweeted their their
Speaker 1: story also had their account shut down just for even
Speaker 1: saying it. And now here CBS News confirming that it's
Speaker 1: all true. Now, why is CBS flip flopping? Why are
Speaker 1: they pivoting? First, they're canceling their account now, they're not
Speaker 1: canceling the account first, their sense or anyone who talks
Speaker 1: about the laptop now they're not. And I believe this
Speaker 1: is a symbol that shows how the centrally planned system
Speaker 1: is breaking down. Decentralization is winning out. We're able to
Speaker 1: share information, We're able to share ideas. We're able to
Speaker 1: have free speech, which I think is the most important
Speaker 1: bedrock of a free society. What separates humans from animals
Speaker 1: is that humans can talk. Animals can't, and we can talk,
Speaker 1: and we should be able to talk. We should be
Speaker 1: able to share ideas, good ideas. The truth is found
Speaker 1: through discussion. If something's a lie, it's gonna be very
Speaker 1: quickly found out to be a lie. Everyone's gonna say, no, look,
Speaker 1: here's the evidence. This is a lie, and if it's
Speaker 1: the truth, it will be found to be the truth.
Speaker 1: All this talk about hiding disinformation, they say that cutting
Speaker 1: a man's tongue out does not prove him wrong. It
Speaker 1: only proves you have something to hide. And so that's
Speaker 1: what's happening. It's interesting to see it happening in real time.
Speaker 1: CBS News has come around in just a couple of days,
Speaker 1: they've confirmed the information of the Hunter Biden laptop story.
Speaker 1: They've had to pivot and keep their account on Twitter
Speaker 1: so they can stay relevant in the conversation even though
Speaker 1: nobody cares about them anymore, and that is a massive
Speaker 1: signpost to show the world is changing right before our
Speaker 1: very eyes. You're listening to the Mark Mos Show talking
Speaker 1: about the decentralized Revolution, talking about the way the world
Speaker 1: is changing through the lens of politics, finance, and technology,
Speaker 1: and that's what I got. Thanks for listening.
