Who is them?
“Lemmings whose whole identity is 1920s propaganda…”
The rest of your comment doesn’t contain anything useful to the debate. If you just want to insult people, here is not the place
If you don’t have anything interesting to say, just don’t. Saying “other people are stupid so why should I listen” is just level 0 and uncalled for
Am I weird if I like to keep my socks on?
blahaj.zone basically
Turns into an authoritarian cult. You’re either completely with them or fully against them
Living with your parents while working = being rich speedrun
who else call people virgin anyways?
thinking people use it just as ‘virgin’ is either deliberately obtuse or ignorant
That’s just what people say these days, even if it’s inaccurate. They don’t care, they just want to insult and trigger. Who is the ignorant?
all I see are green flags
then you’re a pesky liberal, according to them
choose your team
I have always criticized the current system
Payment processors are just part of it. Each time similar issues arise, I’m here
The current system’s problems are not just the actions of a few. The few in question have an incredibly high market share. Crypto would fix these issues: no need for middlemen, more privacy and anonymity (for applicable cryptocurrencies), cheaper international transactions, decentralized to prevent censorship (as long as governments don’t fuck it up too much)
Not to mention your original message was about criticizing Mastercard which is a single entity, and you’re comparing that to criticizing crypto which isn’t
What isn’t essential to you could be essential to others. For many people, card payments are not essential. Emails aren’t essential. Cars or public transport aren’t essential. You’re saying something is useless based on adoption. So it is just useless until it becomes essential at an arbitrary point? So it does not prove anything
Cryptocurrency is essential to protect your online financial privacy. If you don’t care about it, that’s on you.
Let me just give it a good sniff 👃
Always good to specify, you never know
If one leaves shit stains on a chair, don’t expect them to know this
Why blame crypto instead of the specific parts of a different community? You can’t generalize a group because of the actions of a few individuals
Cryptos impact is high but not as much as many other fields, and it’s not for the love of profit, but as a necessity to protect a decentralized currency used by lots of people
Many cryptos don’t even have any environmental cost
Only violence really works, sadly
Rincing vigenar might be useful so the chair doesn’t smell equally bad again
Like people smoking in public?
This, but hating on crypto is trendy
And then people associate crypto with scam even if that’s incorrect because they don’t know better
So it’s a people problem?
I was really surprised when I saw this
I mean I have met many chill lemmy.ml, lemmygrad and hexbear users. They’re just a pain when you talk about their specific topics. The same applies to blahaj users. The main issue is ada, the instance admin of blahaj
