SBF considered going Taibbi
By 
Give SBF this — between crypto and EFFECTIVE ALTRUISM, he always knew where the the good marks were. Here’s yet another example:
Sam Bankman-Fried came up with a lot of ideas to rehabilitate his image and launch a new crypto exchange after FTX went into bankruptcy.
Bankman-Fried thought he might “Go on Tucker Carlson, come out as a republican;” “Come out against the woke agenda;” tell people the team running his bankrupt former company “has no idea how to run FTX;” tell people he’s “really glad” the bankruptcy team stepped in and “they’re great.”
In a Google document, which prosecutors attached to a court filing seeking to put Bankman-Fried behind bars for as long as 50 years, the fallen crypto king considered having author Michael Lewis interview him on TV, asking people what to do in a Twitter poll and leaking a document to the press.
This move would have been too late to save his sorry ass, but definitely would have led to a rash of stories from the Intellectual Horse Paste Web about how FTX failed because it was too woke, and more stories about how he was the victim of Uncle Joe Brandon’s corrupt Justice Department led by noted hyper-partisan Merrick Garland.
Incidentally, among the horse paste crew there was a strong conviction that SBF would never be prosecuted because he was a Democratic donor. Surely all these people have updated their BAYESIAN PRIORS accordingly!
