accelerationists believe the final contradiction of capitalism will usher in some new world order post collapse (Marxist, anarchist, w/e), that people will rise up in revolt once the horrors of capitalism are laid bare, and as such efforts to dull or mitigate the negative outcomes of capitalism are counterproductive. there are imo some quite serious problems with this idea, but they're not nihilists

the real estate market is mostly an open scam as well, and a massive money laundering op, so not surprised they'd accept the buttcoin.

They're screwing over thousands of dumbos and the best they can muster up is eight sentences and an "unprecedented times" cliche. I like that they are also withdrawing from social media, so when they eventually dip out completely nobody will know exactly when it happened.

All the death's head poo poo and 4chan connections were enough to convince me twice over. For me it's the logo being the SS death head alone. Any other digging beyond that makes it muddier. I wish he had actually investigated and turned up something more substantial rather than literally summarizing someone else's conspiracy red line wall. And, again, I AGREE with him, it's so loving obvious - but the way he presented it hurts his case. Butterwagon posted:Yeah, I like Phillion's stuff most of the time but this video isn't really worth watching.

I think he wanted to make the next Line Goes Up. And again, the video ending with a call to buy another NFT... Leaves a bad taste.

Allow the system to fail and only support radical revolutionary social change. It's not wacky nihilism like you say, it's actually a certain sense of progressive. The problem is it goes straight to assuming a mixed market and labour success is impossible despite a few practical cases of that. This in turn makes it super hard for them to sell their point and, in those cases where there is some balance, outright anti-labour because they necessarily have to make things worse to achieve their idealogical end goals. The Euro welfare state is close to perfect and could probably get there with more iteration.

So that seems like something that's not going to look great with the SEC looking into them. 'Yeah, we just printed up a bunch of securities based on our own endorsement of what our collateral is worth, then used them to buy $2bn worth of another questionable financial instrument'.

Some great posts from a lot of people after I went to bed last night!Klyith posted:(Also, a question is, why do you think that it's important to know how & why it works? Bitcoin functions, even us in the critics side are totally willing to say that. All of the problems are separate from the technical aspects.) To answer this specifically, because this is an event now. With all this bullshit finally collapsing, it's something that's on the news nearly daily. More people are talking about cryptocurrency now than they ever have. I chatted about it with my coworker the last week, with my landlord yesterday. Hell I could probably call up my Mum and she'll relay a story of someone she knew who got suckered into all of this. I have less than zero interest in actually getting into cryptocurrency, but this is an event that people are going to be talking about for decades to come. I want to make sure I have a good foundational understanding of it all, for conversational purposes at the very least.

From a few pages back but please don't feel like you can't ask these questions. I don't know anything about finance and when people have asked questions about that stuff I've learned it a lot and find it fascinating. I don't wanna speak for everyone but it adds to the thread for sure I think.

Being a crypto influencer must be a hard job: "Buy now! Now is the best time to buy! Never sell! Hodl! This is just a market fluctuation!" There's never a time to tell people they shouldn't be buying more.
