True. No taxes for them in that case. No food either, after a while.

At this rate it won’t be anthropogenic climate change or the associated risks that will kill us.
It’ll be war and chaos sparked by some AI generated misinformation peddled by morons like Elol and these other braindead wastes.
Bad bot
You seems surprised and yet Trump has been charged with almost the same thing for inciting the Jan 6th riots.
Maybe not the majority, but clearly it’s common enough to warrant mentioning for the people affected by it.
Point 2 is better explained in the article. I don’t take this as discrimination, more that while I will always aim to empathise and understand as much as I can about the black experience and be an ally, it’s something I will never have direct experience of, so maybe there are some conversations that I don’t need to muscle in on.
Yeah haha, I think point 2 is well explained in the article, maybe it’s too generalised here.
Still good general advice for posting in my opinion, better to think in general.
Indigenous population? Hahaha go and read some history.
I don’t really understand why this is getting so massively downvoted.
Seems perfectly reasonable to me as a white person. Yes, point two could be more nuanced, but otherwise aren’t all these downvotes kind of illustrating the point the OP is making here?
Are you upset because you got rejected by a taller guy?
Not related, but nice username. I just watched that episode :D
Just use an ad blocker? I’ve used that wiki loads and honestly can’t blame the guy for wanting to try and make a bit of money for his and other people’s time and effort.
That said maybe patreon or something would have been a better idea.
Yep I definitely agree with your last point. And likewise, appreciate that we could have a discussion about this sensibly. Not sure a finite currency would solve these issues as they are human issues. My take would be addressing the human aspect of these problems through education, which is to be fair pretty unlikely to happen.
As you say though conversation is the way forward, whether we’re taking about crypto or anything else. Cheers :)
God this is ridiculous, sorry to hear you have to deal with such idiotic bullshit.
So you think it’s an asset, not a currency?
You know bank transfers are almost instant across most of Europe right?
That’s a US specific problem. Solutions already exist.
Yes, there are serious problems with the current system. I hear you, and I agree.
Fiat isn’t the problem. These are problems with human behaviour, lack of oversight, and a system that incentivises bad practice.
Crypto does nothing to fix any of them, and in most cases simply makes them worse. It’s not a solution, it’s just touted as one by the crypto rich to bring in new money.
Just look at the rhetoric vs reality. It’s not ok for governments to just print money on demand, but it is ok for Tether to print Tether on demand which they then use to buy shitloads of BTC to pump and dump the market?
It’s the same shit, just even worse.
We’re all being fucked over by the same ultra rich, and technology is not the answer to that.
Voting in and supporting people who want to start taxing these fuckers and holding them to account is a step in the right direction.
Do you know what a blockchain is? It’s not cutting edge technology at all.
You’re right though, there is a compatibility problem.The BTC network is designed to be inefficient and it’s slow as fuck. Why would we replace a fast and pretty efficient system with a slow one that also makes your money unrecoverable if you make a typo?
That’s not even touching on how fun it would be to buy your groceries when BTC crashes 20% overnight.
Or how ridiculously convoluted using crypto is in general. And how easy it is to get hacked, scammed, rug pulled.
It’s complete fantasy mate. I’m guessing you’re deep in the crypto space from your comments, which are the same old non arguements over and over, so no one ever talks about any potential negatives. That in itself should tell you everything you need to know.
I’m not saying you can’t make money with crypto, but it’s a casino and nothing more. The rest is just feel good bullshit sold to you to make you buy and hold, generally.
Is it a currency or an asset? You replied claiming it’s a currency below.
Calling it a currency is generous. I know it’s meant to be, but let’s be honest - you’re not buying the majority, or probably even any, everyday goods or tech with your BTC are you? Most people certainly aren’t. And most BTC owners certainly aren’t. They’re holding to the moon.
Divisive? Let’s call him what he is: a dribbling, brain-dead misogynistic cunt grifter (and now potential pedo).
