I’m sorry the world is so scary you have to segment parts of it away from your daily life, I don’t have that weakness

Yeah some parts of the world are scary and segmenting parts of it away isn’t a weakness. It’s just common sense. (edited to change whats quoted)

And that could’ve been me.

What if people just donated several millions to me because they liked something I did? that’s not exploitation

well yeah but I meant that Truth socials source code is actually a fork of Mastodon. I think they’ve even published the source code somewhere for legal reasons, which is so wired to think about trump doing.

yeah I don’t wanna watch WikiLeaks footage of civilians being shot and you cant convince me to

I’ve seen people here call ai and crypto fascist technologies. There is an element of truth to what cyberblob saying, some people are labeling things as Nazi simply because they don’t like them.

At least we don’t have karma here, that would make it so much worse

this

The amount of times I’ve been blocked on the fediverse because I’ve mentioned that I find the mechanics behind AI interesting, or the math behind crypto, its actually insane. Or anything positive about spacex or the benefits of a free market.

What do you mean? To me the two are synonymous

like Truth social

I’m not saying their policies are any good, but the golden rule still stands, if a Republican who isn’t evil is nice to you, it only makes sense to reciprocate that.

What If I gambled some money I made from honest work and won several millions? Who am I exploiting?

How did Linux Torvalds, creator of the Linux kernel, exploit people?

What did Linus Torvalds do?!

they could also make electric cars…

If USD has to deal with massive inflation that would probably cause the price of Bitcoin to increase because its inflation is effectively set in stone

It’s not as bad as it sounds imo, but its still not the best. Theoretically, if done correctly, this could work really well. Problem is the sheer amount of speculation the creation of the crypto reserve is gunna cause until its made, because Trump is gunna keep tweeting about it to mess with the price, like he did in early March. Ngl if a different president who didnt make such drastic changes in policy did this over the course of many years, it would probably be fine.

oh that was me

Yeah this could actually work really well ngl. But if the government Bitcoin wallets get hacked…

or we could all just switch away from usd

Oh definitely, memecoins and even more credible coins like Solana, the creators of them always own some vast fraction of the value.

More established stuff like Bitcoin or (maybe) Etherium have more reasonable wealth distributions, but most of the newer coins arent like that.
