Why are posts that expressing support and wish towards Monero's proliferating adoption getting some downvote-bombings in here? Examples:

https://monero.town/post/4160760 : "let's promote monero"; -10 karma
https://monero.town/post/4041778 : "let's promote monero"; -9 karma

or this one:

https://monero.town/post/4174276

Just started the skepticism thread, and there is an instant -1 downvote on that.

wtf is this? Are we getting brigaded by grudgeful bitfags? Is it the overly-sensitive leftist fediverse dwellers that can't stand the words like "shock-troops" or "the final solution"? What the hell.

@muntedcrocodile @k4r4b3y The reason crypto in general is considered scammy is because BTC, ETH, and most others are simply not useful as currencies, due to LIMITATIONS OF DESIGN. Such as hardcoded blocksize, block transparency, and more.

Right from the beginning, people doubled down on their investments selling flimsy alternative theories than the simple design goal of “Internet cash”

AFAICT, only one serious project has had the engineering focus to make design changes as needed. XMR is money
