Explain what you mean here.

it can print as much money as it wants with impunity and if inflation runs hot money can be removed from the economy via taxation.
Is this what MMT says?

Dogecoin doesn't have a use case, other cryptocurrencies do. It doesn't have a scarcity component, which is probably one of the single most important aspects to the dominant proof of work crypto operating in the same space as Doge, which is BTC.
What are the fundamentals behind cryptos in your opinion? What drives the majority of their value?

When someone says this they have to explain how interest rates have to go up.
If the Fed keeps buying treasury bonds to fund congressional spending that no one else will buy the interest rates will remain low.
Inflation will get out of control if interest rates do not rise in time. They will never be able to print enough money. It gets out of control. Every time this has happened in history it turned out very bad.

The great thing about macroeconomics is that you can be wrong half of the time and still be respected in that field.

They have to crash the system for the "Great Reset"

It’s clear that the Fed has shifted its policy of controlling growth and inflation through interest rates that it has maintained since the last rise of inflation in the 1970s to deploying quantitative easing and stimulus injections.
They have become addicted to and dependent on low interest rates and printing money. This, coupled with massive spending, skyrocketing depth, and movement to a regulated economy makes for a dangerous road ahead.

When 51% of the population don’t really care that the bread is $1,350,000 because the government is printing that and handing it out in exchange for their vote, then the masses smile and say more bread please.
And the 49% are a permanent minority, watching a life of saving evaporate, and learn that personal responsibility was just a bad idea.
