Interesting that VOX of all websites is now being vocal about Crypto instead of being its cheerleader as it has in its past. is that there must be a lot of executives that got burned by the advice of Nilay Patel over at The Verge.
He was the biggest pusher of Crypto going. As was the Verge. I remember an article where they literally used FOMO to show how exclusive some dinner party was, implying if you could attend you might as well be in with the Hollywood elite clique.
And then you had his article about how good Crypto is for the Ukraine with its war with Russia. That's right, Mr Patel would have had you believe that Crypto was everything. But then that's typical for your general 'woke' person. Scratch beneath that particular veneer and you'll truly see some dirt and grime, hence why they are so keen for you to attack the people they are pointing the finger at.
It's an age old tactic. The Spanish Church used to use "heathen" and "witch" to excuse its behaviour. These days the woke use "racist" and "far right" in exactly the same manner.
You only have to witness an article about Twitter over here at Ars to see this BS in effect. When you have a bunch of the pious attacking one person with so much sheer hatred, and adhom attacks, but Ars does nothing to remove despite it being against their terms and conditions of posting.
It's always okay to break their own rules as and when the need arises.
But then, that's the pious for you. Go and watch FIFA's boss in action. He uses the exact same tactics the pious in the West, and here on Ars use to disguise his own terrible behaviour.
And the knee taking footballers themselves are not much better. Happy to take a knee for a dead American felon who puts guns to pregnant women's stomach, but will they take a knee for all the dead slaves that built the stadiums they are playing in...
Ha ha ha.. What do you think...
There's a reason that over time I became this jaded misanthrope. Can you guess why yet.
As far as I can tell, everyone on this planet is full of shit. Everyone. And what annoys me the most, is when they believe themselves to be all high and mighty, and give themselves the platform to sit on their lofty towers to pass judgement on all those beneath them.
Including myself!!
