toxicbitcoiner on nostr

Bret talked with this bcasher Patterson a bunch of times. Bret and many others have whole brands based on complaining about losing. They don’t know how to win, aka adopt and promote Bitcoin.

I listened to this and still love Brett. Even though he sold all his bitcoin and is getting caught up in the whole “hijacked” Bitcoin narrative. I don’t think it has anything to do with intelligence though - just a misunderstanding of what Fiat is. These bcashers are bitter that Lightning so...
