The problem with people who take advantage of others providing value, is that they have not yet encountered the right individual who will step up and TAKE the value that they are due. If I provide value for someone and they take advantage of my work ethic or value, me personally have no problem slapping the shit out of them and taking my value. But they have brain washed most of us to be sheep and not take matters into our own hands.

My take on anyone who is against V4V is not only my enemy but the enemy of everything that is good on earth. Anyone who is not 100% V4V and has sponsors can be manipulated. So whoever isn’t down should lay down or get layed out, perdiod!

Awesome discussion. Mechanic's summary at the start was more convincing than anything I've heard in favor of this retarded change. The beginning of the core woke infestation was the PR to remove the word "blacklist" from some test code because, somehow, this word is offensive. All the devs cried "it's no big deal" but I knew at the time it was a bad sign. Now core is a woke cesspool. I will not be running their software anymore.

"distributed authoritarianiam" Wow, what a 🚩by Greg Maxwell, who is perfectly fine with centralized authoritarianism by Core. Such a fundamental misunderstanding of the issue, and what it means to run your own node, is a serious problem considering who it's coming from. Turns out "the experts" aren't the experts we thought they were. The way core proponents twist the meaning of censorship and authoritarianism is alarming. Another great discussion. Thanks guys!
