An appeal like this is a kind of concession, and I'm glad you agree that the video is accurate and that he did say that he didn't wash his hands. Edit: specifically this fallacy... Even Snopes says he hasn't been clear even s

Yes exactly that is the exact definition of whataboutism, a classic propaganda tactic. At no time did you address the fact that I brought up that the rights propaganda is worse, nor do you bring up any aspect of refuting that they all belie

Right the I'm just joking defense. That's what everyone said about all of the horrible racist things that Trump said. That he was just joking. And then he looks straight into the camera and said that he never jokes. It is clearly

I think there's a lot of stuff that goes around and left circles that is pretty bleeding heart sort of exaggeration. A lot of the "Now This" content is rather heavy handed. But the vast majority of people on the right swallow

If you can already launder the cryptocurrency you probably don't need the NFTs, so yeah you're probably right they're not worth much.

That's not an argument against their points Edit reply: you actually don't have any argument, I guess then why post? Ad hominem isn't very useful nor informative, especially without any citations

So if I sell an NFT how many third party sales forked off of how many subsequent sales should I consider official or not? Also, during the split, they were worth about the same, and you could sell one for the other on many exchanges. Is thi

Right no for sure. For instance people forked Bitcoin and suddenly everyone that held Bitcoin also held Bitcoin Cash. I can see the not too distant future where a dispute arises as to who owns a particular NFT though because of such kind of

A great many people are starting to look down on NFT buyers and sellers. I'm not sure what status they provide since either someone has to maintain the chain somehow forever which is impossible, but also there isn't anything stopp

I'm not sure why people buy NFTs, but I suspect they think it somehow implements digital rights management of a bill of sale, and it doesn't.
