I am surprised at the many nice, fair, liberal people from my past that, 5-10 years later, have transformed into turbo-racists and Christo-fascists.
I know a bunch of trekkies, a fandom around a post scarcity, pseudo communist utopia, embrace crypto despite it being an artificial scarcity concept that doesn't really fix any of the issues of the preceding system. I make fun of them whenever nfts come up, including posting any negative nft news into the humor channel of their discord.
The right wing trekkies is the weirdest one for me.
Like, let me introduce you to the original SJW, a little know fella named idk, Gene Roddenberry.
They're not really right wing. Very suburban, sheltered and privileged, but I've never heard them talk politics. I can say extra privileged because one of them wanted to put an Battlefield sound board in their car. Sure, that's what you want. Making it easy to accidentally make the sounds of gunfire if you ever get pulled over by a cop because your taillight is out.
As far as star trek goes, they're rather talk about the power output of the phasers then character arcs. They're very basic.

They admire the technical details of the blue curtains, in other words, ignoring that it's a story typically being told with an intended point to it besides "fictional energy beam go psheeeeew."
Just to cover all bases. Maybe you're just too late due to your brainwashing making you not realize how delusional you are? But of course that's not the case, because you're the Super Smartest Guy(TM), and everyone else is so stupid to not understand your true genius.
Congrats... I guess?
Do you know this person or do you just act like a half coherent smug weirdo at random?
You chose to make this post here, in the defense of religious bigotry. Somehow, something about this vague post was enough to trigger the reply you wrote.
Congrats. No guesses, you achieved exactly what you wanted: Everyone knows you're an idiot.
Maybe you've never been to America, but christian fascists are staggeringly common here
Maybe you're just too late due to your brainwashing making you not realize how delusional you are?
Surely it is mental illness if people disagree with you! And mentally ill people are intrinsically bad and deserve contempt!
Your armband is showing.
I have to admire the persistence and endurance of crypto bros tbh. One million scams in a row and they still legitimately fool themselves into thinking number one million and one is the redeemer of humanity and not yet another scam.
That or they are full of shit con artists lying through their teeth who know it’s a scam but want to profit off it.
At this point it’s like 50:50
Here, we even got the claim that the "Darknet" is somehow a net plus for humanity because the peddler heard it saved the economy once for realsies and that human trafficking and kiddie creeping would have happened anyway (but the humanity saving needed the internet funbux!).
The one good reason for crypto is dodging sanctions, and that’s an entirely artificial thing that could be addressed by just… not having sanctions and using normal fiat currency
It's a solution always looking for a problem... while making more problems.
damn I didn't know that they turned into the male equivalent of MLM boss babes
Maybe his account was hacked? One of my friend's Instagram account was hacked and was sending messages to invest money. Another friend really thought it was him and sent some money. If he contacted you directly then it's another case
What if it's this one good-one-grift over the other trashy grifts?
It's like asking "what if it's the good one billionaire" that still preys upon everyone else but has a better PR team to hide the bodies.
It's still internet funny money with all of the same capacity for pump and dump hype and dubious use cases like "get rich by making others believe more in it."
this thing is actually already widely used by most of darkweb
So your use case involves human trafficking.
false equivalency intensifies
Why are you peddling your internet funny money in a thread that's specifically about people tired of people peddling internet funny money?
there's even a theory that drug money saved the world
Suuuuuuuure, but you could say the same thing about normal money saving the world sometimes with your same mental gymnastics.
You don't get to brush off how many of your fellow cryptobros are human trafficking enjoyers then at the same time declare a unique and special savior moment for your favorite human trafficking marketplace.
Hmm... I'd like to know what you think about Tor, and VPNs and privacy increasing tools in general
Hmm...
Considering where you've already gone peddling your internet funny money and now that pretentious opener for your reply, I don't think I'm going to humor you further because it's going to wrap right around to your lowkey support for human trafficking and kiddie creeping pornography because you heard once that it "saved the world" somehow once.
