    Hopefully we can send all the cryptobros to prison along with the rest of the elites trying to drive society into a wall, before this ridiculous and calamitous change comes to pass.

        No, it isn’t arbitrary.

        Cryptographic money people seek to privatize governance.

        A return to serfdom and kingdoms.

        This is not the be allowed.

        People who try to dismantle and corner a foundation of society so they can keep it for themselves and beyond to reach of the consensus, are thieves and should be treated as such.

          Private governance cannot be any worse than current governance, maybe we will get less mass murder known as war.

            Of course it can be worse, are you so bereft of imagination, so drowned in ideology that you cannot imagine another megalomaniac sniffs his own delusions of gradeur and ride them straight to hell ?

            How many more examples from history does there need to be before it will get in the thick skulls of the dollar-sign-eyes that this always ends in catastrophe ?

            We don’t have too many tries left before actual stable governance crumbles for good and we have a couple dozen centuries of unchecked warlordism.

            “Private governance cannot be any worse than current governance”

            You have no imagination

            “maybe we will get less mass murder known as war.”

            You are a fool

              You think that current government is not controlled by dollar signs? The state is just a tool of the banks and the military industrial complex, all they do is lie in order to conduct mass murder.

              Crypto is our opportunity to put power and control back into the people’s hands by ripping control over currency from banking and corporate interests.

                The government prints currency, it is a tool to it. Of course the slimeball politicians are just as dollar-sign obssessed as all of the “business community” for they have become one and the same as money has been allowed to be converted directly into political power.

                But “money” should hold NO influence whatsoever a properly functioning government. Business should never be allowed to infiltrate it’s putrid tentacles into governance because it will ALWAYS ALWAYS ALWAYS do the same thing, change the order of things to empower itself. If allowed it will suck the bone marrow right out of every newborn infant.

                If you think crypto currency, which is the handing over of the money printers to unaccountable private powers and their never-ending shenanigans, is any kind of opportunity, then you have been fooled.

                But let me tell you how, since you are obviously been turned into one of their proselytizers.

                Like any addict, you have been allowed a little sip of unearned value from the speculative value. And now your entire moral system has been corrupted, like the employee of a multi-level marketing scam, into seeking more converts, to keep the marginal price pressure on “your precious” as high as possible.

                Getting others to sink their life’s savings into the crypto currency anti-social disease is for you a way to grow your value. But if you are here, doing the work of the rank-and-file, you should be aware of what happens to MLM victims when then are not at the top of the pyramid.

                Increasing the bitcoin value, effectively hands over more and more unearned economic power to speculative early adopters. Who have invested into a technology with no merits and a contagious mental illness with the false promise of escaping the system.

                There is no escape, there is not another Earth to escape to. The power of money under a private money regime, just means that it will care even less about you, as an individual than before, which is probably hard to even imagine.

                The people most pushing behind crypto, are the naive libertarians, the one they think they can make their big money and escape to their bunkers with it scott free. They are the people that have been breaking society on purpose, creating crises so they can sell us the cure and be our saviours. They are the people who have infected the body-politic with their narcissistic nihilism, their hopeless, futureless nightmare of a life and have been allowed to fester in the name of freedom.

                “Private governance cannot be any worse than current governance” This has been the prophecy they have worked all my life to come about. It is a religious belief that nothing can be done unless it is profitable and done for profit. This kind of diseased thinking will make a few people rich beyond measure while leaving the rest of humanity destitute and then outright dead.

                So do keep spreading your “good news” far and wide if you like but know that what you are spreading is just the latest of the pestilences of the modern era. Palantir thanks you for your service.

                  #The Interdimensionalmeme Manifesto

                  An indictment of privatized power and the crypto-financial techno-cult “There is no escape. There is not another Earth to escape to.”

                  #I. On Governance and the Role of Money

                  A functioning society must distinguish between governance and capital — between the stewardship of the public and the motives of profit. When these become one and the same, democracy dies not with a bang, but in the language of venture capital decks and algorithmic markets.

                  Currency is not simply a medium of exchange; it is a public trust, the circulatory system of a body politic. To surrender its issuance and control to private, unaccountable interests — be they corporations, anonymous developers, or speculative early adopters — is to strip society of one of its last remaining instruments of collective sovereignty.

                  Crypto is not a revolution. It is a coup d’état in slow motion.

                  #II. The False Gospel of Decentralization

                  Decentralization is the sacred chant of the blockchain faithful — but what is decentralized is not necessarily democratized. To spread control across nodes and servers does not spread justice, responsibility, or empathy.

                  Cryptocurrency is not neutral. Its very structure rewards the earliest, richest, most computationally resourced — and calls this “fairness.” It buries inequality in the code itself, hiding plutocracy under the banner of “consensus.”

                  The crypto evangelist, addicted to speculative gains, becomes a missionary of self-interest. The chain-letter economics of this new digital order create converts not by vision, but by the promise of unearned value and imagined escape. III. The Corporate-State Convergence

                  Yes, governments are compromised. They have been infiltrated by the dollar, bought by the lobbyist, colonized by the corporation. But the answer to corrupted governance is not to abolish governance — it is to reclaim it.

                  Crypto offers no resistance to this convergence. It accelerates it. It hands over power from flawed but at least nominally public institutions to venture-backed technocrats, data merchants, and ideological profiteers.

                  To abandon the state without building democratic alternatives is not liberation, it is abdication.

                  #IV. The MLM of the Modern Age

                  Like all pyramid schemes, the promise of crypto lies not in what it is, but in what it might become — if others believe, if others buy in, if others come after you.

                  The blockchain isn’t a chain of freedom. It is a ledger of dreams sold and lives ruined, a speculative suicide pact dressed in libertarian robes. It is the digital cousin of the payday loan, the unregulated casino at the end of capitalism.

                  And yet the faithful continue to preach, because their salvation depends on your belief. The higher the adoption, the higher the price. The higher the price, the closer they are to an exit.

                  #V. There Is No Outside

                  The dream of “opting out”, of escaping fiat, taxes, nations, systems, is not just naive, it is delusional. There is no “outside” to the world we have made. The consequences of economic systems ripple globally, shaping policy, resource extraction, and ecological collapse alike.

                  Those who seek exile in crypto-fortresses or digital bunkers are not building freedom. They are seceding from solidarity, retreating into nihilistic techno-feudalism.

                  There is no Earth 2.0. There is no safe haven from collapse when collapse is a planetary system failure.

                  #VI. The Call

                  We do not reject innovation. We reject the perversion of innovation into a religion of capital accumulation and anti-social escape.

                  We do not romanticize the state. We demand a democratized public, a radically transparent and accountable governance, shielded from the ever-expanding reach of the market.

                  We do not reject decentralization. We reject decentralized despotism, where opaque code replaces public law, and anonymous whales replace accountable representatives.

                  We do not fear the future. We fear a future owned, not governed, by the architects of financial abstraction and speculative cruelty.

                  We do not need new currencies. We need new values.

                  “The people who have infected the body-politic with their narcissistic nihilism, their hopeless, futureless nightmare of a life… have been allowed to fester in the name of freedom.”

                  Let the festering end.

                  Let us build systems worthy of the future, not just profitable in the present.

                  Let us not be fooled again.

                  Signed, Interdimensionalmeme (And those who have had enough)

                    This is delusional. The real solution is money that cannot be corrupted by some politician’s or banker’s decree.

                    Open source technology and cryptography gives us this ability. Now the playing field is leveled, ordinary people can hold and transact real value without some crook reaching into their pocket.

                  That is a lot a “should”. Unfortunately that is not how the world works. So the solution is money that cannot be corrupted by scumbags in government or business. Hence cryptocurrency.
