They can't. I argue once to check if its just a casual 'thing u heard' or a committed thing, then block the slop cultists. I swear nft's werent this annoying.
NFTs definitely were this annoying, but I also think its the same people doing it now with AI, so maybe its just the people who are annoying
Nft's were extremely annoying, but the commitment wasnt this hard.
They were stupid and wasteful but not otherwise too horrible; they were just more and dumber collectible 'ownership' fetishism. Ignorable.
This shit destroys peoples minds entirely. People are dying over this shit. It murdered truth. It's destroyed the world economy and set back climate adaptation by at least a decade while devastating a generation's labor practices. And because it's so horrible, the cultists are more fanatical, like how those people who sacrificed their kids to rfkjr cannot be rational or sane ever the fuck again.
Wow there is a lot packed into this comment, which I mostly agree with.
I am still baffled by how you managed to stuff the entirety of endstage capitalism dystopia into two short sentences. No wonder the word "fatigue" is featured in the username!
But I came here to point out that the last part is possible occurence of cognitive dissonance. When they have fucked up so badly, by commiting to such big evils, and especially sacrificing their kids health, yeah, there is no way back... Cognitive dissonance makes it impossible to admit the harm, so they are bound to reinforce the beliefs or face tremendous levels of guilt.
Was that really worth making the lights flicker on the Midwest grid?
Well, many people are not aware of the link between their ChatGPT projects and the rise in their electricity bill, nor the foreshadowed electricity drought. Contrary to what corpos had people believe about their "individual responsibility via recycling" their individual contribution to these outcomes is now actively suppressed by the billionaire-owned media. Curious.
