smdh y’all should know better
The answer to “corporations are exploiting workers and the product of their labor” is not to set up yet another system that buys that labor for free and resells its product for massive Capitalist gains
The truth about blockchain is that the entire machinery isn’t being run by miners who facilitate interesting transactions and computations.
It is a global machine fueled by an increasing number of suckers, duped by “luminaries” into pouring more resources into a bottomless pit.
The reason blockchain works the way it does isn’t because it’s a cool winning technology and strategy.
It’s because it’s been repeatedly force-memed through fake success stories and new implementations to funnel fresh suckers into the machine.
And a sucker is born every minute
50 years of "TINA" nonsense pumped into their skull, and the previous 450 years of bullshit.
