    Why does the government keep trying to regular fake Internet money? The whole point of it was that it was a free for all. Who the fuck cares if crypto bros get fucked, if you want real securities you go to a real bank and open a real investment account.

      Yeeeaaaah, because nothing says “I’m doing my job, and certainly not getting yelled at by any other agencies” like letting a free for all happen on your watch. You know the FBI is supposed to be PREVENTING fraud, right?

      🤦

          Apparently you did not get the memo, because you believe in something that didn’t exist in the first place.

          BRB, gotta go find my “World’s Best” for absolute morons, but I can’t find that specific one. Just “Dipshit”, “Fucking Idiot”, and “Fucking Idiot Dipshit”.

              I was referring to YOUR own relation of what you call “acab” (which is an acronym, not a group of people), to some larger group of people (which is not an acronym, and IS I assume a group of people).

              You’re conflating some bullshit that doesn’t and never did exist because you have absolutely no idea what you’re talking about, but you heard from some dumb YouTuber or right-wing blog who also doesn’t know what the fuck they are talking about.

                What part of “All Cops” and “Are Bad” do you think does not apply to the FBI ?

      Because then the fraudsters end up with all the money, buy an e-news paper, or get a game show, and end up running for president. It’s not an excellent idea to let fraud run rampant on your society.

      Scammers beg the goverment for a “free for all” so their central organization can defraud people.

      P2P crypto users achieve a free for all by avoiding central organizations.

      We are not the same.
