I've never met a radical environmentalist who didn't have (obvious) psych issues.

And I've never met a crypto fan who wasn't (obviously) clinically insane.

Crypto is literally a short cut out of all this shit but people have been fooled and jaded by it all. It's been manipulated by the corporate world but as a tool for financial freedom it's still good. However, I definitely see where you are coming from and yeah it does seem a lot of the "diamond hands" movement have lost their fucking minds, it's a shame.

crypto is literally a short cut out of all this shit... what a load of crap.. you obviously know nothing about the energy used per transaction and the effect that has on the environment. do some bloody research and look at the cost of each bitcoin transaction... just as an example

I knew this was going to come up at least. Not sure how its obvious and if you knew what you was on about you would of had a figure to put out and not tell me to do research. 1 ethereum transaction is equal to about 22 Visa transactions energy wise. Mining uses a lot yes but it's not a payment system it's whole monetary system for the whole planet and once its mined we stop, fiat never stops. Transactions with the real cryptoplayers use fuck all energy compared to the big boys of fiat. Seriously running rhetoric your read from state sponsored fear mongery makes you a pawn on the wrong side of progression. This seems like I'm being a dick, I'm not trying to be it's just the same old shit and the people that spout it have never actually done the so called research. We are only humans I get that but at least ensure your thoughts are your own.

I mean the word radical does have certain connotations so I am inclined to agree. Extremes of any sort shouldn't be tolerated. If an extremist has a good point , accept it and adjust accordingly, don't join their divisions, cause that is all you will be divided.

If we don’t join radical climate activists, there won’t be any division. This is because we will all be dead.
