Meanwhile cryptocurrencies are still being created daily essentially printing money and this is ok with everyone. Monero just gives us a safe tool to use on the hostile internet and we are all criminals because we see the implications of a transparent ledger long term. I can't even make money on stocks trying to diversify from monero...everything is manipulated...but everyone is fine with this. House prices are a criminal rip off...everyone fine with this...some anxiety ridden runt trades some monero and holy shit...off with all their heads. But everything's fine...

Trad-Fi is a feeding trough right now.

Honestly, it's not that normies disagree with Monero's goals, it''s just still way too complicated for most normies to bootstrap into getting, let alone using. And I've tried showing people.

In the end local people resort to anything that is useful as a currency - fish, meat, eggs, veggies, skill--swaps - I'm down for that too.
