Shiny_Flakes: El cibernarco adolescente

Actually when it comes to time served, some probably will argue not enough time served. Now starting right off with that: depending on your moral understanding and on your willingness to run with the "whataboutisms" Max fka as the Teenage Drug Lord (or Shiny Flakes I reckon) also dishes out: If I didn't do it, someone else would.

Again I am not telling you how to feel about this, because only you know what your morals are and if this is just an excuse or a legit argument. I know where I stand on this. One thing is for sure, he may have served time, but it's not like he seems to have learned his lesson(s). There are new allegations of him dealing or rather distributing again.

The documentary is really in depth though, so no matter what you think ... it will try to give you both sides. And it asks things relentlessly ... even the things Max does not want to reveal. At times therefor it almost feels like a mockumentary ... like this is just made up. Some of the things that happened seem way too far out there ... but then again "stranger than fiction" and all that.

Interesting to say the least and maybe more controversial to some than to others ...

I found it pretty entertaining and I couldn't resist chuckling because law enforcement was so annoyed about Max and at certain points even personally offended about his lack of remorse. Their demeanor and facial expressions were the best!

It looks like the production team interviewed the guy running the shop and then displayed the video material to the people who had to deal with him professionally wise (police, psychologist, prison warden etc.) for comment. This gives the documentation a very consistent look and feel.

Recreating his bedroom that he used to run the store from is good for illustration and beats the regular documentary by using the real perpetrator.

The "drug lord" gives the impression of a charming and eloquent young man. The documentary though does not question, whether this guy might be a narcisist, who loves to present himself and they are giving him a platform to do just this.

As for the documentary, it was very well made and engaging. I didn't plan on watching it, but I was too late pushing cancel after the preview and found myself watching the lot!

As for Max, I found him irritating. I've looked through the other reviews and people generally see him as some sort of hero, but working in mental health, I just found him to be a gloating narcissist.

Just out of interest, the amount of bitcoin he made - 15,188 - if he kept all that and transferred it to US dollars in April 2021 he would've had $987,000,000, a few thousand short of a billion dollars. Where did all that go?

If this guy was paid in Bitcoin all the time and he managed to store them somewhere safely.. regarding the crazy increase of Bitcoin worth he must be crazy rich.. for those who don't know what that means google Bitcoin worth increase of that past years ;) One Bitcoin in 2014 when he was active was worth around $700.. today one Bitcoin is worth $40,000 (yes 40k) it's getting even higher.. so imagine. He could be a billionaire.. pretty sure.
