Yeah. Yeah. I mean, it's it's funny because the Bitcoiners don't really understand the way the journalism industry works. And you see it all the time where, you know, they'll get super upset</span> <span class="cue" id="t-401" data-t="401">at a credentialed journalist for writing fake news, and they think that,</span> <span class="cue" id="t-407" data-t="407">like, that is being done because,</span> <span class="cue" id="t-412" data-t="412">that's actually what they believe when in reality, they're just, like, you know, laughing.

They say that people reply</span> <span class="cue" id="t-430" data-t="430">to the journalists,</span> <span class="cue" id="t-431" data-t="431">especially if it is Bitcoin FUD.</span> <span class="cue" id="t-433" data-t="433">They say, you just don't understand Bitcoin. You need to spend more time researching it. Really,</span> <span class="cue" id="t-439" data-t="439">they do understand it, and they wrote it wrong on purpose because they knew</span> <span class="cue" id="t-443" data-t="443">that the only way that anybody would read it or click on it, because nobody else cares about Bitcoin,</span></span></p>

I mean, it's funny because, like, I mean, if you think about it, the the formula of what they're doing</span> <span class="cue" id="t-471" data-t="471">in this process is they're</span> <span class="cue" id="t-473" data-t="473">by triggering</span> <span class="cue" id="t-474" data-t="474">Bitcoiners, they're actually getting more Bitcoin out of it</span> <span class="cue" id="t-478" data-t="478">because Right.
