I’m no OG bitcoiner, but having a first edition hardcover of The Bitcoin Standard with the N.N. Taleb foreword makes me feel like one.

Currently blocked on twitter by both of them.

You’re blocked by Saife?

Yep. I dared to defend abortion rights using a screen shot of a tweet of #[3]’s that was refuting Saifedean’s cheering of Roe being overturned. I didn’t tag either of them. It didn’t go crazy, maybe a dozen likes and retweets, but apparently enough for him to see it. Boom, blocked.

Taleb is so fragile that I literally just replied to one of his tweets with a non-aggressive question and got blocked.

I would have imagined Saifedean to be against government overreach into peoples’ bodily autonomy, but 🤷🏻‍♂️

Turns out he just loves wealth and attention.

Fiat standard FTW

Interesting. I expect Taleb to block anyone who disagrees with him, but definitely not Saife.

I believe Bradley Rettler (not here… yet) got blocked for daring to suggest that vegetables *also* have nutritional value.

Saif loves his safe bubble.

That’s a badge of honor, sir.

From what I’ve heard this is not a difficult achievement.

Evan 2y ago

Indeed, it is not.

I think Taleb cheated me out of earning it.

He must have used a massive block list or script.

Evan 2y ago

Pretty sure both of them have used tools that block anyone that likes a specific tweet.
