> privilege as you've never experience this kind of oppression.

it is weird to see how the cryptocurrency nerds, with their massively polluting, "I got mine" high-tech get rich quick schemes, grab ahold of the mantle of champion of the oppressed and poverty-stricken.

It's disgusting, phony and hypocritical. It's either acting in bad faith or delusion - I can't tell which, perhaps they blend into each other.

So much projection. Astonishing.

What's discussing is handwaving real-world problems because they don't fit your agenda.

Thinking that poor people need your horribly polluting bitcoins is the epitome of not understanding the real world's problems.

Calling this projection is insulting, and IMHO very much projection itself. bad faith, deluded, or both.
