this is nasty. steganography. 10 years ago they embed your account id in video game screenshots. today, any photo u take, any screenshot, from camera, phone, or laptop, might embed your device id, or worse. it is nearly impossible to know.

had a bad impression of naval. because on twitter he just post terse cryptic mysticism how-to-be-rich-easily to his million followers. but now, having watched him in person, i think he's super smart guy and probably good.

although this can be viewed as slavery but i think this view is wrong. illegal aliens as servants for the rich are common, and often willingly. Some are treated reasonably well. The system may be unfortunate, but probably not this particular family.

DeSantis seems got a catch-phrase about China pronoun. Chinese lang has just 1 pronoun, ta (it he she). Maybe he means sjw pronouns (like dragonkin or puppykin). China (and japan, korea, and arab) would be the last country on earth to have the sjw faak. But his catch-phrase is
