Pseudonymity is a meme

Alright ya beautiful lovelies, CryptoFirstNewsBadger here filling in for yer regular old presenter. And I know you’re thinking you look just like him. You sound just like him and you probably saw me getting me groceries at t’same superstore in t’same town at t’same time. But I assure you I am someone completely different and it would be hapsolutely impossible for you or anyone else to ever ever know me true identity. So I can say whatever I want, I could say Beanie is a ginger twat and there would be no comebacks. As far as you know or care, I am a ghost.
