Dtube Exclusive - BuzzSteem Ep 42 - [Crypto Skeptics: Go Suck A Bag of Dicks!]

in dtube •  7 years ago 


Hello friends!

Today I have a sweet and short PSA about a recent NYT article that interviews some obvious plants about how terrible Bitcoin is, and what catastrophic effects it is having on humanity! Oh the humanity!!! Think of the children everyone! Dump your Bitcoin right now!!! (sarc)

I also address a recent trending post by @jwolf about being negative on Steemit..ya'll can probably guess what my retort was to that. If you can't, well give this vid a watch! It's not too long today!!

Stay tuned this weekend for some possible Lady Steem action, coming up steemy and hot! Whoo!

Thanks for watching as always!

xx ~ Beth

Oh the humanity has been robbed and overtaxed by inflation schemes since fiat money was invented thousands of years ago. Satoshi comes up with a deflating currency by which the people get richer, rather than poorer all the time and they freak out, wonder why??

Deflation is great! No matter how much the MSM demonizes it because governments can't use for hiding taxation and funding wars.

With a deflating currency, people would only buy what they really, really need for the moment and save for the future, get richer in a stable way. The opposite of what we have now with people buying worthless plastic crap made by a slave workforce and dumping it everywhere messing with the planet and creating depressions and severe crisis every few years.

Truth.

Also, I am pretty sure I called a porn bot to my post by the use of the word "dicks". Oh the humanity!!! :D

A porn bot? Hmmmm.....

Haha, your words inspired me for today's article. I mentioned you there! regards

Haha, great video! Love your passion, it's fine to get angry about shit... after all there is plenty to get angry about in all corners of the world. Boomers are a bone of contention with me too, they took it all and now everyone younger than 50 will have to work until there 75... unless they manage to do something more exciting with their lives. This is what some people (mostly older people) really hate, the idea that something has come along that might make working a 40 hour week, 9-5 a thing of the past. Just because Dolly Parton was into it doesn't mean that we have to be. Keep ranting, this is the first video of yours I have seen and I will be back for more. Peace!

Yeah I mean I love my rents and all, but I am sick of hearing from them how much better we have it, and how we just don't want to work hard.

My dad got a job right out of high school at a factory and worked there for 35 years. Now, he ended up getting fucked over a bit by other boomers, but, he was still able to pull a pretty dece retirement, and now he is working again, but they are able to sock all that money away. Unless you have a state job, which are impossible to get unless you want to be a teacher and make peanuts, or a police officer and risk getting shot in the head just because you work that particular job, then VERY few jobs offer a retirement. Sure, some of them have 401k's which are bullshit because they are just literally a gamble. I would rather get my full pay than have to invest in Fiat.

What my parents seem to not understand though, is there will be NO retirement for us. NO SS, NO PAYOUTS, NADA. So they can keep on bitching while we work to pay for the SS that the government stole from them, but ultimately without us, they are SOL. At that point, they will either lose the social security that they put into, or the government will have to pay up.

Bravo! Nothing wrong with criticizing something you like. If the problems are never addressed they'll never be fixed to the benefit of all involved, including the endless parade of cheerleaders. Ra, ra, gimme an S .... Like anything else, Crypto will have to go through it's own sequence of childhood diseases before it matures.

Ugh yeah the parade of ra-ra is getting old. Lady Steem is the best I can muster!

Soooo many valid points, but obviously they haven't heard of VICE coin ;-)
Plenty of hanky panky going on in crypto land :-P

And that capitalist system that needs you to look for a job instead of finding your own way forward, is crumbling.

Mainstream news is really running with this one because I thought it was Bill Gates who started this.

And @dtube why isn't this lady in your trending section every day?
She deserves more exposure.

Otherwise, she might leave your beloved Dapp and it will become dry as a dead root in a morgue. d.tube needs this humor, don't take it for granted.

Seriously Beth, consider moving to @dlive if this @dtube voting situation doesn't improve.

Hah I had never heard of VICE coin either, now I am intrigued...

Oh yeah well of course the people that rely on the vast majority of the population for cheap labor are trying to paint an ugly picture of crypto! "We are eliminating jobs making bottle caps...something that a machine could surely and WILL surely do in the near future...the HORROR!!" Ridiculous. I am typically not a boomer basher, just because I was raised by two really responsible ones, who had no part in any of this bullshit, but I have felt pushed around a lot as a millennial lately, and this article just sent me over the edge with its level of snark.

I am not sure what is up with @dtube voting. There are a handful of people being upvoted as always, but the small group that I hang around have been left out to dry the last 4 days or so...not sure what's up with that. Meanwhile, 8 accounts McGee is still receiving a twice daily upvote from @dtube. I am appreciative of what I have earned so far, but it doesn't seem to matter how much I put into this platform, the upvotes are still incredibly inconsistent. I see that a few people have switched to @dlive, so I could give it a shot, but I don't know if I do anything quite exciting enough for that platform!

good post your steemit

nice video :) keep up!

Annnnnddd.... upvoted (with my massive 0.02 vote but hey). Mankind's natural reaction towards the unknown or something new tends to be a negative and defensive response. That's what I seem to see in the criticism of crypto. Rather than "cool, how does that work?", you usually get someone holding up a crucifix and strings of garlic. I think government does have a bit of cause for fear because decentralization is not necessarily in "their" best interest (by their thinking). So fear mongering is the knee jerk response. Your arguments are sound mam.. And to be honest - for a moment when you stepped back from the camera I thought "Holy crap, she's gonna moon the camera" :) . Haha - I was wrong.

Love the show. Ur awesome.

This!
This is so good!

In NY Times defense... who even reads the NY Times or really any periodical anymore? Like, those old people who sit in libraries hoping someone will talk to them... that's it... there's no one else... so of course they're going to rag on our beloved way of the future. They don't understand it and that's fine, because we don't need any of them... all we need is some retailers willing to take the plunge, that's it. Everyone else gets left behind.

I love this rant though, the editing on this was sliiiiiick! J2R has a massive point... @dtube... you need this user on your platform... she's great and she's a huge huge huge supporter of Steem. Get to voting, yo!

It’s a Very different time for millennial’s. You don’t have the opportunities that the baby boomers dead they are the last generation who will retire with benefits and pensions and I’m a Gen X so I am right in the middle of it. People wine and crab about millennial’s all the time but we have a millennial vintage market and I have talked to themThey get it and millennial’s work really hard and they’re not going to see the benefits that the boomers did for a little while longer

I love this rant. Good thing the New York Times isn't being read by anyone anymore.
