Saifedean was trying to convince him that his stance on COVID was idiotic in private DMs. Nassim kept advocating for lockdowns, vaccines and all kinds of stuff that proved to be completely idiotic and basically couldn't take the L. So he blocked Saifedean and went on to speak at a BSV conference of all places and started railing against BTC.
Since then, he's been exposed as a financial fraud as he's apparently lost a ton of money on his fund. But basically, COVID is what happened and he's been wrong on all of it.
Hey thanks for the explanation. I read Skin in the Game and found it interesting but his written style is difficult and ‘intense’, like he is on edge.
