This is a very, very interesting and high-quality interview that discusses the state of the world economy and the predicament we find ourselves in.

Feliz Zulauf talks about what the inevitable over-reliance of societies in the developed world on central banks causes. In his view, the end result of central banks having to create demand will result in a loss of prosperity and freedom.

Starting from 23:25 Zulauf and Pal talk about regulations, including government regulation and control over the media. Zulauf talks about how the goverment in Germany has bought the print media through media subsidies. He said free social media died during the US elections. Zulauf says governments will try and come after social media a few years down the road simply because they need a tool to get the masses to consent.

This is where a global decentralized social media platform such as Hive comes in. Hive will be very hard to take down based on securities laws because, first of all, it's a fork of Steem and Steem did not have an ICO. Hive witnesses are based everywhere in the world. Take out some of them and others will fill in as consensus witnesses. We have already seen how a money attack will fail: just fork the damn thing and be done with it. :D

It seems clear that while Raoul Pal, being a finance guy, is focused on the large caps, DeFi and the hot NFT market right now, hints are being dropped that at some point decentralized social media protocols may become a focal point in the struggle between decentralization and centralization.
