Nope. It’s continuous under reflection iirc

Per the Brouwer Fixed Point Theorem, if you flip a 2€ coin into the Trevi Fountain, then there is a point on the map on the reverse side coin that corresponds exactly to where it lands in the fountain.

Oh no it’s not at all based on tech optimism.

It’s based on a strategic approach rooted in getting everyone accustomed to everything being fucking trash which is achievable due to 1) lack of regulatory oversight and 2) lack of competition

Your best outcome here is inheritance tax, 50% capital gains tax which raises to 97% after the first $5M, and wealth tax on real property.
