Netflix is literally 50% of "Bread and Circus".
Bitcoin is a threat to the most important part of the power structure.
With inflation raging and a cold European winter coming (and that's not to say that plenty in north america won't be choosing between heat and food) if I were you I would be more careful with how overtly you defend the propaganda outlets of the status quo.
- socialismisok 4y agoI'm really not. Human entertainment has been valuable for as long as there have been humans. We bond as a society over shared oral traditions. Music, art, dance, performance... We value it deeply. To try and wave it away as frivolous or somehow unimportant denies something deeply fundamental in what we are as a species. Bitcoin does little to nothing. It's not a threat to any power structures. It's just not. At best it's a way to move some value around that's too small scale for governments to care about. I have no problem with the ideas of distributed ledgers. Hell I'm about as anti capitalist as any leftist, I just think Bitcoin is a stupid way to achieve the goals it has. > if I were you I would be more careful with how overtly you defend the propaganda outlets of the status quo. Is this a threat? I can't even understand what you are implying. That the proles will tear me apart for saying "I think Netflix is ok"?
