maybe one day you'll realize thats also why you "don't trust crypto people"
in the late 90s most broad media references to "computers" were about the viruses and things that went wrong, those newly introduced problems didn't go away and only have increased in frequency and amplitude, we just choose not to make international headlines about them anymore and talk more about what's being developed and working as intended
- hahamaster 3y agoTotally untrue. Viruses and 'things that went wrong' were tiny bits of mainstream coverage of anything computer related.
- yieldcrv 3y agoin my area and circles of luddites, most of the skepticism of computers was based on the limited headlines they saw on mainstream news this dictated whether they wanted to spend any energy learning that a different reality was also happening and possible, this dictated whether they wanted to invest their resources into personal computers or upgrades you can argue the empirical quantity of my experience, it is also the same behavior described about people averse to crypto: the negative sentiment and actions they are bombarded with doesnt compel them to be interested in seeking a different reality
