- Wait at least 2 months before reposting
- No explicitly political content (about political figures, political events, elections and so on), !politicalmemes@lemmy.ca can be better place for that
- Use NSFW marking accordingly
Laittakaa meemejä tänne.
- Odota ainakin 2 kuukautta ennen meemin postaamista uudelleen
- Ei selkeän poliittista sisältöä (poliitikoista, poliittisista tapahtumista, vaaleista jne) parempi paikka esim. !politicalmemes@lemmy.ca
- Merkitse K18-sisältö tarpeen mukaan

Ah, how quickly they forget how Boomers went feral over Beanie Babies.
Not really the same, I mean, Beanie Babies actually physically exist and require work to be produced. You could compare it to Labubus, Warhammer figures or collectibles of any kind but NFTs are just peak worthless stupidity with no prior equivalent
Just because beanie babies exist in the real world doesn't make them valuable. The NFT bubble was similar to the beanie babies bubble.
