Greenpeace has really outdone themselves with this one.

“Bitcoin mining companies and trade groups are tied to politicians and dark-money groups pushing pro-corporate policy agendas that harm working people and BIPOC communities while limiting democracy.”

And the website and interactive report is just absolute shit that an 8th grader could do a better job on 😂

There is no justification or excuse for this level of ignorance and lack of critical thinking.

The justification is to take advantage of people who are predisposed to believe any story that is critical of energy usage. These people trust and do not verify.

Classic gaslighting. Accusing someone of what you do.

Crazy how it’s designed to do the exact opposite.

Like, those thoughts wouldn’t even be in their brain, except for the legacy system already showing them it’s fraught with what they perpetuate bitcoin doing.

This is on my reading list - I can't really comment on if it's good as I've not yet read it.
