The only thing I trust more than crypto is crypto backed by Facebook

  It's like money, but decentralized. And controlled by Facebook. They'll have some sort of committee to help them pay lip service to social justice, and then promptly ignore their advice.

      If I have to pledge my fealty to a billionaire lord, then I’m going with the Emperor of Mars, Elon, first of his name, long May he reign

        Yep, ditto.

    "decentralized" meaning ... your crypto may go through facebook.co.uk, or facebook.fr, or instagram.co.jp or facebook.com.au, instead of being centralized at facebook.com. much better security for peace of mind. ;)

    But also probably not very decentralized.
