"Subtracting the negative reactions, NFTs was totally fine and gaining popularity at the start of 2021" is EXTREMELY worrying. Are the devs like, not in any queer or leftist circles at all? Like, the second NFTs started being a thing, every queer and furry community was talking about how they're shit. The devs having no idea of this makes me worried about what circles they're in, like are they crypto fans or something? ๐ฌ I really really hope the devs are more cautious about adding crypto-related anything, especially when it's something that boils down to fancy expensive environmentally-destructive receipts Quote by: @BK47 While I'm 100% behind protecting the environment and holding people accountable for their actions, there's a point where I think our standards and expectations become a little bit unrealistic. Every store we shop at, everything they sell was shipped to them on carbon-spewing semi trucks, boats, and/or planes (with rare exceptions of electric vehicles). By buying anything at all, we're perpetuating that process. Human society in general damages the environment. If we wanted it to stop, the global economy would need to come to a standstill. I'm not saying it's acceptable, because it's not -- and there's definitely some due diligence for creators and influencers to do before selling merch, like selecting shipping materials or even the type of merch. But I just can't see someone as a monster for selling things like T-shirts and stickers to their fans. There are only so many ways that independent content creators can make money and survive. I would rather focus on corporations which do the most damage. It's called: You do your best to MINIMIZE your damage to the environment. You can't stop all damage you might do, because of capitalism, but you should still try and do as little damage as possible. Additionally, the "corporations which do the most damage" are the corporations that make the materials that content creators are using to ship. Like, these corporations do this much damage at the behest of the people paying them to do so. |
