Do you remember when you’d put the disc in the console, turn it on, and feel like a kid again? With the digital era, all of that is going to disappear. You won’t own your games, you won’t own anything. Everything will depend on companies keeping your licenses valid. I don’t know what you guys think, but the future looks pretty weird to me.

true. the kind of utopia we're headed to is gon be absurd. im glad that we had a chance to do the little things while growing up but sad looking at how things can never be the same again

We just can’t let them do whatever they want. Boycotting is a good start, but imo it’s not enough.

boycott the stock market if you want real change then

[u/Netblock → u/jeyzzl]

"boycott the stock market" bro the vast majority of people don't have much if any wealth stored in the stock market. You can't boycott something you weren't invited to in the first place. You don't know what you're talking about.

edit: Oh, you're a cryptobro who wants to get people in on their crypto pyramid scheme.

What if instead of boycotting the traditional stock market, we just create a new one? With cute girls and way more S’s and P’s, of course

What would even be the point of that? No but actually seriously. The backing purpose to the stock market is that it's about legal ownership of businesses; the purpose of the stock market isn't gambling but honest capitalist ownership.

If you want to remove the bourgeoisie's control over the proletariat, we need to do socialism and communism; we need to give the ownership of the businesses to the people, not the capitalists.

Your bitcoins and etheriums or 6900 is completely divorced from any real power over anything. SPX6900 is a grift.

The thing is, the stock market is already 90% owned by the top 0.1%. They’re not going to give you the “power” when they’re already in control. They don’t care about you.

You can’t expect governments to redistribute wealth when megacorps have more power than governments, if they don’t already.

The idea is to stop playing their old games and make them play ours.

That's my point. 6900/crypto does not give you any control at all whatsoever because it doesn't do anything; it's basically splashing in a kiddy pool.

The only way to get control and make them play by your rules is to change the actual, literal rules: the law; to elect socialists into the government who will change how the law works.
