I have discovered a Breadtube murder detective comedy about a 50s McCarthyite being transported to the modern world and then obligated to solve degenerate queers' self destructive sectarianism about whether or not tankies are actually Nazis. Guy who made it is an idiot but its actually kinda funny, ngl. The first episode is about a vaush standin being seemingly axed by a Philosophytube standin for not reading correct Marxist literature. Figured I'd leave it here as it's worth a laugh.

Why are so many breadtubers against crypto?

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.

Marxists tend to want to abolish money, even from the state. They generally see money as something that isn't needed to distribute resources, that's why thought slime wants an inventory and not UBI (or BI). Personally, I don't get how it would work, but they don't want any money.

It's because of the environmental impact of bitcoin.


"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."

Kinda an argument there, but I think we are are like, 50% carbon neutral at our electricity production?

"dude just abolish money lmao" is part of the nonsensical, utopian side of theoretical marxism. you know, the same side that postulates that under true and honest communism there will be no state at all, no authority, no hierarchy, no power structure of any kind.

what i refer to is what marxists actually plan to do (and have done in the past) when they rule a country and establish their 'dictatorship of the proletariat' - and that is complete state control over the economy, which includes total state control over the money supply, so something like bitcoin can't be allowed to exist.

We're going to be running our cars off of electricity soon and I don't seem them making the same excuse. This is purely a spear tip IMO.

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.
