BreadTube - The Unofficial ContraPoints Dickriders Club and the culture / drama surrounding the community.

[Jewthulhu]

cause they're marxists, and marxism wants the state to have total control over all things economy, including all things money.
crypto is an ancaps wet dream because it is specidically designed to work independent of state control, which makes it anathema to marxists who want everything toe be subject to state control.


oh they're absolutely marxist (in this regard at least)
remember, a core part of marxian economics is anti-capitalism, and capitalism is equated with private interests controlling the economy. bitcoin is private interests controlling the money supply, so of course marxists would hate it.

Technically, Marxism is a completely democratized worker-controlled economy, not a state-controlled economy. Perhaps I'm wrong in assuming that Marxists value the wrenching of control away from the bourgeoisie over their theory of "labor value." IMO, decentralization is the logical first step in democratization of the economy, but then again, I'm not a Marxist.

My point is more that a lot of breadtube's thought process is typically more along the lines of "fuck the right" than any strongly held principles. Hence why you can be a moral and nonviolent and still "punch a nazi," why censorship is bad unless its against a nazi, and why we need to liberate the working class except for those fucking rural uneducated nazis.

That's exactly it. All of these breadtubers are just the left leaning version of the Skeptic Community. As such they're all just massive contrarians with no principles. Even some of the same grifters such as Shoe0nHead are there and simply changed opinions to suit to a new audience for those youtube adbux. With their hostility to Bitcoin all of a sudden. It's both just repeating what they heard others in their circles say and they don't want to contradict but most people past center-right conservatism rely heavily on crypto due to them getting blacklisted from every financial processor out there. So want that gone completely.

On a sidenote it is completely funny to me that Cock Slime claims to be fighting the elite and changing the minds of the people while at the same time he's never had to face any persecution for his views. He still has a YouTube Account, Patreon (to which he makes nearly $95,000 a year just from that alone), Twitter and alike and gets shout outs by bigger YouTubers than him even. Even his ACAB video which was him "fighting the system and saying what needed to be said" simply just got praise by the mainstream. Cock Slime claims to be "fighting for the working class" yet he makes more money a year by doing practically nothing besides repeating stale progressive talking points on camera than anyone within the working class. He bitches about landlords being leeches yet every landlord I've met has worked harder than him than he has in his life. It's frankly disgusting someone like him gets to make over $100k a year LARPing as some rebel anarchist revolutionary on YouTube while there are better people than him within the actual working class who make a fraction of his worth.

 

[Raoul_Duke]

Breadtube is just a bunch of petit-bourgeois who like to pretend that what they're doing is fantastic and important in their dull lifes at best, and grifters and manipulators at worst. I hate it, and I wish the next big dictator, whether in the mold of Lenin, Stalin, Hitler, or whatever, goes ahead and gives at least one of these useless cunts a taste of their medicine.

It's because of the environmental impact of bitcoin.

https://www.cbsnews.com/news/how-is-bitcoin-affecting-the-environment/

"If bitcoin miners are using the most efficient machines possible, the lowest amount of electricity they could possibly be using is 13 terawatt hours, de Vries said in an interview. That's about as much as the entire country of Slovenia. De Vries said less conservative estimates make it entirely possible that bitcoin is using as much energy as Ireland, which consumes about twice as much as Slovenia, or about 0.7 percent of the U.S. total.

The problem is getting worse, said de Vries, who estimated the annual amount of energy consumed by bitcoin rose by a fifth in the final weeks of 2017."

That's not a valid argument. Especially since e everything is often touted as a renewable energy source.

Plus 'muh environment'.

First of all no one actually leaves the far-right cuz most of the things you come to realize one joining the far-right or fundamental truths about the World they cannot be on learn .
They were not members of the far-right to begin with that's why when they say I used to watch Sargon not I used to read Julius Evola or
Or for my legionaries or death of the West you got the point .
That's the problem when you view anybody to the right of Jeremy corbyn as a jackbooted Neo-Nazi
You tend to start having a really really bad understanding of politics and philosophy.


The only real former members of the far-right will all losers or embarrass themselves in the eyes of other members of the far-right

What is Leon talking about? It's weird for him to say " don't use my name to trash someon3" when he was part of #CTC and continues to shittalk Doug to this day, even making comments on videos negatively talking about Doug like the video essay talking about Demo Reel.

Has he been simping for e girls? He seems more like the Georgia rub and tug shooter type

I have no idea, I just call him that because it sounds funny.

This probably doesnt even need a response but sean last had a good one on this.

Although his is completely contextual to race.

Gutian just made a very similar video to this actually, though I haven't watched it all the way through.

Even though I agree with the general theme of the video, I'm forced to say she's wrong just because of those two things.

I've always found this to be the stupidest cop out ever. Sure, bitcoin sure uses a lot of energy, but how much energy was used to mass manufacture the textiles you're wearing? How much energy was used to mine the rare earth metals (and how much of those metals were leeched into the environment) for the computer you're recording this on? I bet most people who use bitcoin probably use more energy climate controlling their house then miners spend calculating the share of the blockchain. If Marxists want to continue perpetuating urban industrial society then they have their priorities completely out of wack, bitcoin is a small fry compared to the energy spent shipping commodities yet they seem to want to continue consumerism just without the brands or the corporations.

Also, on a side note, I hate how these motherfuckers also act like the entire planet is going to instantly die due to global warming. The earth has been hotter than it is now and had high biodiversity still, hell this is more or less an abnormally cold climate we live in now compared to what the dinosaurs lived under. We'll be fine, it might be expensive to deal with flooding and shit, but bitcoin is not "literally killing the planet" as thought crime claims.

The cuck posted a new video

And he just posted a tweet for his next video

Holy shit do these retards love to hear themselves talk. It's like they never have anything to say but they just keep talking because they expect some of their words to have weight by random chance.

Good to see that his fans at least have common sense. Yes drop out of law school to do youtube, where your livelihood is decided by everchanging rules and an algorithm that can change from favoring you to never recommending you in a second.

How much energy was used to mine the rare earth metals (and how much of those metals were leeched into the environment) for the computer you're recording this on?

Since these arguments started to crop up I have been wondering how much energy is used in legitimate banking and credit card transactions. I would imagine for a given number of transactions the banking and CC would have to be more efficient due to economy of scale alone. But would that still be true given a similar scale for crypto (not necessarily BTC)?

Crypto-miners have to be acutely aware of energy spent to make it profitable and CC/Banking is working with basically unlimited funds and can easily sacrifice energy in favor of other priorities to increase profits. For instance, a significant portion of banking infrastructure takes place on systems using FORTRAN or COBOL for various reasons, and I wonder if older less efficient hardware/software might not be one of those factors.

Does it cost less or more for banks to store, transmit, and calculate transactions than it does using blockchain technology?

Breadtube are retards that don't understand marxist thought. They are utopian socialists and don't like anything attached to scientific socialism. Because in essence that means living in a post liberal society that won't be catered to their needs.
