I agree that there’s some line, but if we’re really talking about $1.5bn & it really is a theft, it seems reasonable to me. /shrug

It’s probably money laundering anyway, but I dunno. If the blockchain is protected through a decentralized ledger, couldn’t they vote via governance?

Keep in mind, I read the headline & not the article. I got no clue what chain or crypto involves the story. The web3 world gave me a salary boost, and that was enough for me. It was stressful working in a grey area at times.

Actions speak louder than words, and I believe Zelenskyy would. Great example of leadership.

These incidents sincerely undermine some of the “big advantages” of blockchain. I worked for an NFT company for awhile, and we talked about how people stealing like this would just have the funds reversed because the blockchain can fork to solve it. But that shit rarely happens, or if it does, it’s probably all international money laundering. I have 0 faith in the community now, and it was a whole cult back in 2021.

Thanks for sharing, homie.

Thanks for that note. I’m reading it first hand without much supporting text.

That’s horrible behavior. Pride goes before the fall.

I agree, there is no Jesus is those ideas. Unfortunately, there is some Peter and Timothy. :( I’ve been reading the New Testament on my own as religious exploration. I’ve enjoyed who Jesus is, but his disciples represent more of their times.

Hell yeah. One of the few good ones.

John 13:34-35

34 I give you a new commandment, that you love one another. Just as I have loved you, you also should love one another.

35 By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another.’

This was said by Jesus before he was betrayed by Judas. This same notion is shared by many other holy prophets.

  • The Buddha taught that all living beings experience suffering, and therefore, compassion should be extended to everyone without discrimination. 
  • The Prophetﷺ set a crucial example to the Muslims: that there is far greater value in forgiveness than in revenge. And that the remedy for injustice and the cycle of abuse is moving the community forward, as one whole, together.

I don’t want to give up on humans. I don’t want to be a bitter person. Maybe my morals will be my ruin, but if so, I know I will have lived a compassionate life of love.

As a human, I hate the actions going on in the US and around the world. As a spirit, I feel compelled to find love and champion it.

Peace be to you, homie. 💜

Matthew 25:35, separating the goats and sheep, outlines how Jesus would judge people at the end times. These are the questions:

  • Did you clothe me?
  • Did you feed me?
  • Did you visit me in jail?
  • Did you help me when I was a foreigner in a strange land?

We must show the modern hypocrisy and how people have fallen astray from their own values. They must be reminded of the values that got us here. If this book is how they truly ground their lives, then there is no way to deny it.

Either they accept Christ’s message or they don’t. I don’t care who asks these questions: they are good moral questions.

Revelations 16:2

So the first angel went and poured his bowl on the earth, and a foul and painful sore came on those who had the mark of the beast and who worshipped its image.

Matthew 23:24

Then if anyone says to you, “Look! Here is the Messiah!” or “There he is!”—do not believe it. 24 For false messiahs and false prophets will appear and produce great signs and omens, to lead astray, if possible, even the elect.

If people on the Right want to claim a Christian high ground, then quote the book that matters most to them.

Real answer: if you’re communicating, you want to be understood at some level. Knowing the audience changes the dynamic to fulfill that goal. If you use big words and your audience is 5 year olds, you likely won’t be understood.

If someone gave me this advice, my first reaction wouldn’t be “You’re attacking me!” It would, “Hey, thanks for the advice. Can you unpack it further for me?” In work, I’ve done well by having a growth oriented mindset. There absolutely are bad faith actors, but listening to the advice of others has helped me grow.
