The Monerobros are like foot fetishists - completely missing all the important things because they get a hardon for something that no one else really cares about.
We’re here to separate money and state; not to ensure the state can’t detect your weed purchases you fucking losers.
One day we will value our privacy more.
We value it today.
Monero isn’t going to separate money and state. It’s just not. They picked the wrong trade offs because of their fetishisation of privacy rather than correctly ranking where it goes in the hierarchy of needs for something that COULD separate money and state.
I don't know, hiding black & grey market purchases seems like a legitimate concern, not so sure their choice actually solves it as well as they believe, I guess it'll work until it doesn't...
Sure. But that’s like directing all your energy toward building the best fireworks ever when your actual goal is travelling to Mars - you’ve aimed for the wrong fucking thing entirely and even if your fireworks are amazing and blow the whole world away, you’re never getting to Mars with them.
Focus on the target instead of circlejerking about nonsense.
I think you'll find most of them don't care about that, different goals.
Use a simpler argument to them, if they are up to illegal activity that is going to put them in a cage or get them killed, then they don't want a public ledger of every transaction.
They already have something for that that they all use with no record, quite a few other mediums as well with no network to trace.
