There is one who determines to take a stand in the world by acting on his own freedom. He values the necessary action more highly than an untarnished conscience and reputation. He is prepared to sacrifice a barren principle to a fruitful compromise or a barren wisdom of mediocrity to fruitful radicalism.

He will condone the bad in order to prevent the worse and in so doing no longer discern that the very thing he seems to avoid as worse might well be better.

Where does the capital come from though? Someone has to pay for the shovels and if there isn’t a profit now, how will they pay for the next bubble?
Lol. I’m sure some new fangled NFT AI Slop wouldn’t be another bubble.
Another example of police on police violence. What a clown show
