I Gazed Into Worldcoin’s Orb and Saw a Boring Dystopia Staring Back - Beehaw

O R B

it’s huge and dystopian, who’s going to buy that??

how are you supposed to get more of these to trade? "being a unique human being" just doesn't cut it for me, maybe I'm missing something? it all seems like a way to trade your identity for monopoly money
