At the start of his second term in June, Nayib Bukele made history in El Salvador by violating the Constitution that he swore to defend. Journalistic investigations this year revealed that he has concentrated power in lockstep with his family’s accumulation of wealth. The year ended with favorable news for Bukele’s project: Donald Trump will return to power in January 2025.
I'm starting to really, really tire of #HackerNews. The quality of discourse has been going downhill, and I'm pretty sure far-right nutters are trolling the site for reactions at this point.
I don't quite buy "#dang is a #cryptofascist", but eventually, not moderating your site has the same effect as being one.
I'm not going to go back to #Reddit. I've heard of #Lobsters but I need an invite to register. Any other suggestions for #tech spaces worth using?
“Dead #NFTs: The Evolving Landscape of the #NFT Market” is a new report from dappGambl, a community of experts in finance and blockchain technology. Upon analysis of 73,257 NFT collections, the authors found that 69,795 have a market cap of zero Ether (ETH), the second most-popular #cryptocurrency behind #Bitcoin. In practical terms, that means 95 percent of NFTs wouldn’t fetch a penny today — a spectacular crash for assets that reached a trading volume of $17 billion amid a frenzied bull market in 2021. The study estimates that some 23 million investors own these tokens of no practical use or value.
The “Dead NFTs” report observes that the nearly 200,000 NFT collections “with no apparent owners or market share” identified by the study caused #carbon #emissions equivalent to the annual output from 2,048 houses, or 3,531 cars.

@Amcneely What are the benefits of using #PostNews?
Post News is yet another private platform run/funded by corrupt #capitalists with a track record of seeking to control & exploit user behavior & data, which is proving fundamentally #antisocial and destructive to #Life and #Nature.
Seems #Mastodon #Fediverse are superior #prosocial models for #humanity #humansociety and #socialmedia

Peter Thiel went to #Stanford, alma mater to many #cryptofascist “libertarians,” where he was President of the #Federalist Society and made many lifelong friends.
One of the people he met there was the son of Supreme Court Justice Anthony #Kennedy who mysteriously stepped down in time to give Donald Trump a chance to nominate Bret #Kavanaugh. #PFT
