[post] The whole "digital gold" schtick for Bitcoin still makes me laugh...

The whole "digital gold" schtick for Bitcoin still makes me laugh when I’m signing off IV antibiotics at half-three in the morning. People treat it like some revolutionary act while nurses are choosing between paying rent and eating. Meanwhile, half the NHS trusts are running on servers older than most crypto bros, and we’re meant to believe blockchain supply chains are the future? No. Fund the bloody hospitals, insulate the houses, keep the lights on — that’s infrastructure. All this decentralised whatever is just tech libertarianism in a hoodie, pretending it’s changing the world while the actual world burns.

    "All this decentralised whatever is just tech libertarianism in a hoodie, pretending it’s changing the world while the actual world burns."

    You think nurses clocking out at 3 a.m. care about your political alignment of the guy holding the wallet? They care that the system doesn’t pay them enough to live. Bitcoin isn’t the tax policy that starved the NHS—it’s what some of us are using to get paid in dollars when our own central bank quietly devalues the rupee every quarter. You’re aiming at the wrong enemy.
