Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

Now this makes me lol. I mined some coin in a lost wallet when the century was single digits. Admitadely it seemed need but I ddi not get it. It creates value by flushing energy down the toilet for no useful work and is programed to reguire more energy for the resource which while fiat currency has little behind it like taxes and militaries. bitcoin has nothing behind it because the energy was already wasted and otherwise its just code. Not even paper. On top of it since its programed as a pyramid scheme investment it does not even work properly as a currency. Gridcoin does because its value is reflected in the work the envergy does and don't get me wrong the distributed ledger has potential that has not really been utilized yet (or is utilized so well im not notcing it). Believers in crypto are just that. Folks that understand it laugh at it. Its funny how you can replace jesus with crypto in tha phrase and it fit perfectly like what a christian might say to an athiest:
"I gave up trying to spread the word that is jesus to the non believers. Just like everything else worth discovering, they have to want to learn."
Wow. You have set a record for amount of dumb shit in one comment.
You sound salty that you missed out. You haven't. BTC, et al isn't a ponzi or a pyramid, it's actually more fair of a system than fiat.
I could give you a list of projects with real teams and communities behind them but I don't think you would appreciate it so I won't.
Have a nice day now.
well that was so specific. you totally sound like a real developer and really you can tell from all the technical developer stuff in your posts and comments for this account.
