@MarcGoldwein You need to peg emergency status to an objective measurement, like whether or not Disney is altering the release schedule of MCU movies. — PolitiTweet.org

@lionel_trolling @philoshua I would genuinely appreciate a step back examination of what you take the stakes in the Fascism Debate to be, since I feel a little turned around on it. — PolitiTweet.org

@lionel_trolling This I think is why Donald Trump was always against crypto — he recognized the traditional role of money-laundering as a source of capital for actual real estate projects. — PolitiTweet.org

As @matt_levine said, I found it kind of appealing that SBF himself didn't seem especially big on crypto. They say selling shovels in a gold rush is a good way to make money, and the logic applies even if it's fool's gold.

It can be easy to miss this but there are two parallel discourses — one that's like "of course FTX was a scam, all crypto is a scam" and the other is like "of course FTX was a scam, FTX was working with regulators and abandoning the true faith of DeFi and Bitcoin maximalism." — PolitiTweet.org

Of course my SBF/EA take is the best one but I do also recommend these two from @EricLevitz (https://t.co/1xQjCQbZLw) and @mattzeitlin (https://t.co/f7W9NzbKEJ) which cover some different angles. — PolitiTweet.org

I feel much worse now about “EA” as a brand or an overlapping set of communities but still feel good about most of the ideas that got me interested in the first place. https://t.co/bKy86nm5Rt https://t.co/iQ7v6wEjuN — PolitiTweet.org

We still don’t know at this point what the deal is with the downstream spending of SBF’s PACs and philanthropies — I feel confident that *some* of it was legit funding of good activities but I’m nervously waiting for more shoes to drop. https://t.co/bKy86n52Pt https://t.co/uU9A8xmDNW — PolitiTweet.org
Matthew Yglesias @mattyglesias
Those ideas make some sense if you’re talking about doing direct cash transfers on a modest scale, but the games SBF was playing require creating durable credible institutions and the overt stated plan there was reckless over and above anything else. https://t.co/bKy86n52Pt https://t.co/h15oNhJC5l — PolitiTweet.org
Matthew Yglesias @mattyglesias
To me the most damning thing about EA institutions isn’t that they somehow should have detected a financial fraud that professional investors missed it’s that they actively promoted this theory of risk. https://t.co/bKy86n52Pt https://t.co/4kwZH049o9 — PolitiTweet.org
