The points bought up are well put & cynical for good reason. Crypto is getting more sustainable due to solar powered sources much faster than most industries. Agree, social media is very centered around cult of personality & surveillance; at least in the US. Yet, there are some positive talking points about social media; one being Veganism. Since vegans are few & far between when it comes to neighbors usually; social media is essential. Vegans do help reduce environmental issues; as well as spread the word about them. Have been fairly impressed with the NFT community; definitely more so then crypto as a whole; yet Cardano / ADA is even more sustainable then Ethereum. Precedents being set by law makers; social sentiments about environmentalism & even veganism; as well as the wasteful actions of corporations & excuses; being adopted by citizens; are causing the toxic waste reality we are fully enveloped in; probably more than anything. Communication about this problem using art & empowering artists by paying them seems like less of the problem currently. Excellent piece as always very thought provoking. Longtime fan of Douglas Rushkoffs work since mid 2000’s. Exciting to comment finally! Much appreciated.
