This video that starts off talking about how dumb Joe Rogan is---a relatively easy target---was fine but it contained an absolute banger of a revolutionary call from Hasan. <media href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YLbaqkDpaLE" src="https://www.youtube.com/v/YLbaqkDpaLE" source="YouTube" width="560px" author="HasanAbi" caption="JOE IS SO GONE..."> <bq>What has stopped you from giving up? Not only am I an unimaginably stubborn person, but I also have a firm belief in my fellow man. I believe in you guys in this community. I believe in people that I haven't met yet. <b>I believe in the kindness of strangers. I know that we can overcome this.</b> I can't just give up.

That world sucks. I think one of the most annoying parts about this is that <b>these delusional losers don't even realize that they are actively and aggressively pursuing a world that is worse than the one that we live in right now.</b> I don't want to live in that world.</bq> Investing is helping <i>them</i>.
