You funcking dumb shit greedy-ass m/f-fos. What in the shitty-shit is up with this shit? Think yo gonna make some dough making jpegs and shit? #wagmi #wen_lambo? #take_my_money is what it is, LMAO. Hate to break it to ya but it ain't gonna happen. Unless you already rich. Or, unless you poor but get extremely lucky and get to be the first in line. Like you got an inscription in the first 1k or some shit. It's a rigged world and crypto ain't gonna change that. Rich get richer, the poor get poorer. Bitcoin and the rest ain't gonna change that shit. Hell, it only entrenches the existing inequality and writes it in the digital history books. It's all about giving you 'true ownership' of your shit but the blockchain doesn't ask where you initially got your cash. You got some dough from thieving conniving ancestors that popped you out? You can put it in your wallet and say it's truly yours now. I see it a mile away, fam. It all comes down to influencers and wannabes shilling some shit and creating #fomo...and the exploited unfortunately gullible enough to go #yolo in on a game that benefits the few and dubs it as unprecedented opportunity. We've been there before fam and we'll be there again in another 20-30 years. Nothing wrong with wanting to be rich, but always know whose game you're playing, fam. Unless you make it a way for last to be first and the first to be last, it ain't revolution enough. Crypto ain't gonna do that. Think about it, fam. You think in a 100 years there's gonna be wealth equality cuz of some crypto shit? It's a bunch of white guys circle-jerking each other--and if you ain't that, you're an exception that proves the rule. If the world becomes fundamentally fairer in a 100 years, it ain't gonna be because of crypto but despite crypto. peace out. #NFA #DYOR . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Actually, I'm gonna let you in on the good word from the patient ReVeRend: . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . "NFTs and the Crypto Space: A Sermon on the Temptations of Wealth and the Call to Justice" Beloved congregation, it is with a heavy heart that I address a most concerning development in our modern age, that being the rise of NFTs and the crypto space. These novelties in the realm of digital assets and ownership, do but serve to reflect the deeper and more pernicious maladies that afflict our society, to wit, the inequalities of wealth and the perpetuation of poverty. The NFT market, I say unto you, is but a tempest of temptation, a siren song to the wealthy, who are but lured by the allure of material wealth, at the expense of the poor. The rich grow richer, whilst the poor are left to suffer and to want. And it is not only the poor who suffer, but also those communities of colour and the colonised, who are left behind in this race to accumulate riches. This is a great tragedy, a moral affront to the principles of fairness and justice, and a testament to the legacy of colonialism and the systemic racism that continues to perpetuate poverty and suffering. Dear friends, let us heed the words of the great philosopher and abolitionist, Frederick Douglass, who said, "Power speculates, as well as wealth; and the humble members of society are as much the objects of speculation as the more elevated." Let us not be tempted by the seductions of wealth and material possessions, but instead, let us focus on the greater and nobler things in life, such as love, kindness, and compassion. For verily, I say unto you, wealth and material possessions do not equate to happiness or fulfillment. The wise Aristotle taught us that, "Happiness is an activity of the soul in accordance with virtue." The pursuit of wealth may bring temporary satisfaction, but it will not bring lasting happiness or fulfillment. It is our divine obligation to speak out against the injustices and inequalities that afflict our world, and to work towards creating a more equitable and just society. As the prophet Micah wrote in his holy scripture, "What doth the Lord require of thee, but to do justly, to love mercy, and to walk humbly with thy God?" Let us heed these words and strive to create a world where all people are treated with dignity and respect, regardless of their race, class, or background. Dear congregation, let us be vigilant against the temptations of wealth and material possessions, and let us not be swayed by the siren song of the crypto space and NFTs. Let us focus instead on the things that truly matter, such as love, kindness, and compassion. May the Lord guide us in these trying times and may we find the wisdom to see the error of our ways. Amen." -ReVeRend . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . ─────────────────▄▄▄───────────── ─────────────────▌──▀█─────────── ─────────────────▌───▐─────────── ───#DYOR─────────▌───█────#NFA─── ─────────────────▌───▌─────────── ────────────────▐────▌─────────── ────────────────█────█─────────── ────────────────▌────▐─────────── ───▄───────────▐─────▐─────────── ──█░▀█─────█▀█─█─────▐▄▄▄──────── ───██─█────█░░█▌─────▐░░░█▄▄───── ───▌───█───▐█░░█─────█░░░▀░░█──── ───█▌───▀█▄▀─█░▄█───▐▄▄░▐▌░░░▌─── ───▐▄─────────█▄░█──██▄▀██▄▄█▐─── ─────█──────────▀───▀▀──▐▄▄█──▌── ──────▄──────────────────────█─── ───────█────#we_so_early────█──── ────────█──────────────────────── ──────────█▄▄▄─────────────▌───── ───────────────▀▀▀▀▀▄▄▄▄▄▄█────── ─────────────────────────────────
