What exactly is the social base for wanting a devalued dollar?

...I first noticed it in the comments at ZeroHedge, where goldbugs who used to speak entirely in Rand and Mises quotes suddenly started getting Putin-curious in the late '00s.

Goldbugs, Zerohedge, etc used to do this all day long on Twitter. Probably still do, I wouldn't know. This is just the same thing but for ideological fellow travelers of anyone reading this on Bluesky. Also probably less monetized tbf (laudatory).

Similar to how for 15 years there were goldbugs and inflation hawks who predicted that runaway inflation was RIGHT AROUND THE CORNER and then when we got one year that really did have moderately high inflation due to Covid effects they acted like all their previous predictions were vindicated
As Tommy Vietor likes to say, they’ll be right eventually

oh it will ruin lives and could definitely lead to a recession, make no mistake.
combine this with the fact we have an admin that is largely packed with goldbugs and thatcherites, and it makes the prospects of fiscal stimulus look pretty bleak.
add in Trump putting more morons on the FOMC and lol

this has uh always been pretty common with libertarians. it’s like their rational for being goldbugs
And, just to round out the field, the Libertarian Party continues its descent into a collection of bigoted edgelords. I think my post on their corruption by MAGA was too optimistic.

Weirdly, the world of lawless “currency” for goldbugs and ponzi schemers is a cesspool of grifters, opportunists, and mobsters.
Two members of the NYPD, including a detective in Mayor Eric Adams’ security detail, have been placed on modified duty this week after links surfaced to two crypto businessmen charged with kidnapping an Italian tourist earlier this month, sources say.
NYPD detective on Eric Adams security detail tied to crypto millionaire torture case, sources say
NBC New York obtained exclusive video that shows the torture victim running down the street after his escape, 17 days into captivity, and seeking help from a police officer.

At some point in the next 5 years we're going to see a major right-wing pissfight schism between the fascists who believe in chartalism (the idea that money comes from the government) and those who believe in metallism (goldbugs) and it's going to cause the dumbest recession you've ever seen
