I have set myself on fire outside the Trump Trial (removed from "world" news because apparently a call towards the global population was too US-centric) (web.archive.org)

My name is Max Azzarello, and I am an investigative researcher who has set himself on fire outside of the Trump trial in Manhattan.

This extreme act of protest is to draw attention to an urgent and important discovery..

One of the key findings of this research is that Harvard University is one of the largest organized crime fronts in history, which is how they churn out billionaires – it’s a major hub of this sprawling criminal network.

As it turns out, dozens of the writers of The Simpsons went to Harvard. So I asked myself the question: If The Simpsons served the interests of organized crime, how would it do so?

Well, it offers a dysfunctional family suffering from moral decay, a community incapable of solving its problems, a worker drone who slaves away for an evil billionaire, and cathartic laughs for our poor collective circumstances.

this is so unhinged LMAO its not even attached to the doorframe

The other big breakthrough came when I was posting these essays on Reddit, which is owned by many of the financiers of the crypto super-Ponzi. Over and over again, I received the same types of comments that would attack my credibility without engaging with any of the evidence I was surfacing. They were practicing fear, uncertainty, and doubt.

LMAO they are doing the same think cryptobros do

literary , I shit you not , this is one of the "proofs" he uses that this global conspiracy exists :

Bart from the Simpsons standing infront a newspaper with a 9$ price printed in large characters with two large towers in the background , kinda looking like ab 11 with a headline saying New York

I didn't remove it, but I would have. The event happened in the US and reading his manifesto it's all about US personalities and instiutions.

World, specifically, is about non-US events. It's to keep it from being flooded with US news which already has News and Politics.

Bad enough that it's almost all Ukraine/Israel/Gaza all the time, it doesn't need US too.

this post is so far getting downvoted, but its the first bit of info I have seen claiming to be sourced back to max azzarello.

if the sourcing is correct, its an interesting view into a mind and pretty reflective of the absolutely insane moment we live in. so many attacks on our collective mental state and so many individual reactions to those attacks.

nothing new or innovative in his "research", but holy hell are we clearly adrift as a species.

Wow, I got almost halfway through that and it was a wild ride.

Tl;dr - Dude things cryptocurrency is a massive ponzi scheme that's somehow being used to start a global fascist coup. Like any good conspiracy theory, there are a lot of facts (some of them even true!) and weird relationships between them.

I'll probably finish it later tonight, just to see what else this dude has been up to.

Well, he's not wrong about them individually but the insanity is thinking crypto is the driving force behind fascism or that it was necessary to create to facilitate the latter

[–] [email protected] 4 points 6 months ago (2 children)

Exactly.

I think most crypto projects are scams, but they're relatively independent scams. We've got:

YouTube channels pumping and dumping coins
exchanges stealing wallets
digital wallets stealing keys
individuals selling NFTs and misrepresenting what they are

And so much more.

But these are mostly just people jumping on the bandwagon, not some concerted effort by fascists to control the money supply or something. You get the same thing with any fad, like scalping GPUs during COVID supply shortages, Pokemon card fakes, GameStop stock manipulation, etc.

But it's still incredibly interesting to see all the connections a very dedicated individual can make. I mean, somehow Bill Clinton is in cahoots with G. W. Bush to push crypto?

What else would they discuss while on Epstein Island?!!

That said Thiel is absolutely funding their creation for his fascist goals. If he controls how money works by having a lot of it he has more influence on it. But aside from the funding of Etherium he’s got no hand in the shit that screws the common rube.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 6 months ago

Thiel is an absolute piece of shit & the day I wake up to news that he's choked on his own hubris will be great.

Also apparently the Simpsons are intimately involved...
