everyone on all sides just misunderstands jokes and takes them as literal, making each side into a parody of itself
I know I know, the metaverse/crypto is already a parody. But my point remains. We’re like a bunch of Facebook boomers commenting angrily about onion articles
Was planning on making a post pleading for people to spend 60 seconds looking in the comments or doing any kind of verifying to make sure they aren't getting got. I had this wild assumption most of the posters here were a little more savvy and have been getting disabused of that notion.
I could believe it's real, I bought my first car entirely with the proceeds of hacked Runescape accounts.
My budget was like 40,USD to get the license for the botting software I cracked and put the keyloggers in, so if Facebook can't sell virtual houses for 290K more than a decade later, they're washed up.
To be honest I think most people aren't going to put in the emotional time and effort to manually reverse search the content of an image, deal with Twitter's bullshit, and then skim through replies that are mostly just awful takes or bad attempts at Joss Whedon tier comebacks, assuming there even are replies.
I just assume if someone willingly browses Twitter or :reddit-logo: they're already digital masochists. If it was an occasional thing it'd be fine, I've fallen for stuff plenty of times, just seemed like half the posts yesterday were fairly obvious jokes that were causing a lot of people to invest emotional time and labor getting worked up over.
This feels like something a Zuckerberg online stooge would say absolutely unironically. The very existence of the Metaverse should be a bit. Not something one of the largest companies in the world sank billions of dollars into inventing.

the main power the poster has is laziness, and the lurker is even more powerful in this respect
