> MMT is a joke.

I have my own issues with MMT, but I feel like most people that share your position seem to believe that MMT means “you can print as much money as possible without ramifications” which is not correct. One of the core ideas of MMT is that inflation is the limiting factor of how much money can be printed, or rather that inflation should be the gauge of when to stop. The idea is to spend new money wisely, in ways that increase productivity rather than contribute to inflation. I think that part of MMT is quite reasonable.
