npub1y4s7hjcxn9e2dxakrl98taqevp8vk9fn4axpkejqcuvackcg7f6sgnvgt8 (npub1y4s…vgt8) I'm not offended if people chose not to use them - that's a very reasonable ethical choice, which I've compared to being q vegan in the past
What offends me is when people deny that there is any utility to them at all - indicating that anyone who is finding value in them is deceiving themselves
(And I'm aware I've been arguing that point with crypto advocates for years, so it's somewhat ironic I'm now on the other side of it)
