2 block lists for crypto

1 for Nazis

lmao

I think the reason for this absolute hatred of crypto is that the predominant modern leftist mindset depends on a belief in governance making everything better

how to fix healthcare? more government involvement 

how to fix income inequality? more government involvement

crypto is an oil and water situation when it comes to this mindset

one of the most OBVIOUS governmental duties is issuing currency 

crypto being legitimate would mean that this, a basic core use case of governments, is outperformed by the free market

it's easier to block out the possibility of this being true than to adjust your fundamental worldviews

Until we’ve removed the power of capital, neither state, nor free market interventions can ever serve the people. 

That’s what I find funny about these arguments. Neither side gets it. Crypto and decentralization provide the tools to undermine the dumb ideas of their creators, fortunately. But the “free market” is only possible without capitalism.

No capitalism ≠ capital are not exactly the same things. You surely mean money when you say capital. But capital is both money it a capitalist system and all goods that make money (known somewhat controversially as “private property”).

And capitalism specifically is the system under which those with money and other forms of private property can own the things they “fund”

The alternative is not state ownership as that is almost identical to private ownership. The alternative is collective ownership by the people who use the things. Cooperatives, guilds, associations, collectives.

I’ve written a lot about why I believe money is useful and even markets. But I see no redeeming case for protecting the private property rights of capitalists who are effectively just the aristocracy or this system.

Can you even remove the power from capital when capital's essential function is the facilitation of resources? 

The only way I see is if a central power not capital is responsible for all resources, and that doesn't sound pleasant.
