How absolutely crazy is it that Sam Bankman-Fried is going to get away with it.

Guy 100% committed fraud and stole BILLIONS of dollars from innocent people. They advertised on the frickin Super Bowl. They had little “FTX” badges on the frickin umps behind home plate in every MLB game. Maxine Waters was literally blowing him kisses in congress. He gets to keep acting like he’s this great philanthropist who made a mistake and all of his customers whose only mistake was believing him and believing the media get fricked over in bankruptcy. On what planet is this acceptable? Really goes to show you that you can get away with anything in this country if the right people get paid.

Don’t get me wrong, by the way, I don’t disagree with the counter-argument that his customers deserved to lose their “investments” because they were dumb enough to “invest” in crypto but still this was a straight up fraud and there should be some kind of consequence. If SBF doesn’t do hard time in federal prison - and it looks like he won’t - then this country is truly falling apart.
