Peter McCormack is the biggest case of cognitive dissonance I’ve ever seen.

The guy spent half a decade hosting "What Bitcoin Did," interviewing hundreds of the world's smartest guests who explained exactly how fiat currency ruins society. He spent years nodding along to the thesis that the only way to limit government power is to separate money and state (Bitcoin).

Then, he pivots to a UK politics podcast, starts platforming fiat economists, and spends months perpetuating the system he was taught to see through.

Now, in his most recent episode, he claims he’s reached an "inflection point." He says he’s "done" pretending the system works and refuses to vote for the lesser of two evils. His big new focus? He wants "strict constraints" on government, arguing that without something like a Bill of Rights or a Constitution, the government will always expand to serve its own interests at the expense of the populace.

No shit. You literally have years of archives of people telling you that fiat money is the mechanism that allows that overreach. You are begging for a "paper" constraint (a Constitution) while completely ignoring the actual constraint (Bitcoin) you built your entire career on. It is painful to watch someone look for a solution they already found years ago.
