Yes. Curiously, one of the hosts draws parallels between right wing bitcoin supporters and supposed gold bugs who spread that "elders of zion" book.

Yeah I listened to it, beginning to end. At least they realized somewhere after the 40 minute mark that what they are really afraid of is people being exposed to Bitcoin ETFs without their consent, and I think that if instead of all the fluff and scripted narrative, they ought to focus on solving that particular problem (though doesn't HSBC have a zero tolerance policy towards Bitcoin? Also remember #1034520, lol.)
I still like Molly despite her political alignment because she has been working hard on documenting scams, and hopefully she's here on SN under nym to at least be able to gauge more from Bitcoiners than what happens on the bird app.

bitcoiners need to make common cause with those who would regulate and suppress crypto scams.
right now Bitcoin is being lumped in with shitcoin, and that's not good.
how to make it happen?
