RE: Why wouldn't someone join Hive?

in OCD4 years ago

Yet, these people continue flapping their gums about evil capitalists while demonstrating total impotence even as consumers regarding choosing a social media platform.

In another comment, I likened this to child labor. People are against it, but also want cheap products.

Sort:  

Except that they are the child laborers themselves.

What do they do when someone comes offering them decent pay? That person gets ignored or scorned at. The worst part of it is that after 5-10 years or however it takes for Hive to grow into a 100x to 1000x bigger platform, the same type of person is the first to express envy and resentment.

Funny eh?

Stockholm syndrome?

"Why didn't you tell me better!"

Stockholm syndrome?

That's what I keep wondering myself. I think it's likely that it just conflicts their theory of value. It could be countered by saying that there's just a lot of loose investor money around or that the real use case is trading against Bitcoin.

"Why didn't you tell me better!"

LOL

While that's a possibility, the more likely version is some murmur about taxing the whole thing to death or outright banning it.

Do you have your keys to "crypto island" yet? :D

Me? Now? Not yet. :D
