Topic: Hate speech and it impacts on bitcoin - page 2. (Read 585 times)

Racism and hate speech are things that people really don't like because they involve other people's good names. It is appropriate for this special regulation to be made so that the fulfillment of a person's right to life is guaranteed and there is no more discrimination, racism and hate speech prevailing in society, although sometimes the existence of regulations cannot necessarily suppress this. At least it can reduce hatred towards other people and establish good relations between humans because humans are essentially the same without having to differentiate between race, ethnicity and religion.

Some countries actually make laws for the problem of hate speech against other people and usually many people get trapped when they say something about other people on social media. Hate speech is one of the factors that causes division between people and often this has a big impact when the problem becomes widespread and it is appropriate for everyone to avoid hate speech towards other people if they don't want to get in trouble with the law

However everyone has the right to freedom of expression and opinion, although freedom of speech is limited for the promotion of peace because it causes harm and disunity. Hate speech can cause physical harm to its victims when violence is involved and can also cause disunity.

The (CERD) committee on the elimination of racial discrimination was the first to address hate speech and the need to build regulation, prohibiting and provocative types of language. This committee intervene and yet hate speech still continue in our society today.

Generally, however, hate speech is any form of expression that discriminates against minorities by abusive or threatening speech. Although some countries define hate speech as speech or act that promotes violence.

Those who support (pro) bitcoin and those who are against bitcoin always have a clash in speech. Those who hate bitcoin see bitcoin as a scam and other crime scheme. So with their view on it they see bitcoin users as scapegoat, criminals and money laundering and some special advisers in the government see bitcoin from this perspective so they advised the government to ban bitcoin in their country. And this cause a social trauma between these two groups.
Upon all these bitcoin is still gaining ground in the ecosystem. Therefore, hate speech cannot do anything to bitcoin again.
Although we are free to say what we want but we should avoid expressing an idea that threatens or insults association (hate speech)

There are obvious statements of hate, but how about speaking ill of institutions, systems, and practices that are obviously ill? Isn't that just speaking of the truth? Isn't that even called for?

It would be best if Bitcoin supporters only promote Bitcoin in such a way that they would just mention the features of Bitcoin and let the people freely decide whether to embrace it or not. However, Bitcoin is a solution to a problem. It's very hard to explain Bitcoin without mentioning the monetary and financial maladies that the current societies have.

Is it possible to explain antibiotics without mentioning bacterial infections? How can we explain Bitcoin without pointing out the evils and abuses of central banks, fiat currency, third party institutions, and others?

After all, Bitcoin isn't just another innovation born out of our creative imagination; it is a technology born out of urgent necessity.

Op lately I made a little finding about why so many people are against Bitcoin within my localty and I was shocked to understand that these people actually hate Bitcoin for no reason infact the majority of those who speak I'll about Bitcoin are those who has never had any investment experience, trading experience, people who don't understand anything about Cryptocurrency. Imagine someone hating Bitcoin because he was told that it is a scam when he has never been scammed before, I think the major reason why Bitcoin is been hated is because it has not been generally accepted by the governments I believe when it is pronounced as a legal tender in all the countries of the world even those who has come publicly to make hate speech against Bitcoin will be the first to embrace the change.

By the way, nobody is forcing another to have a transaction with Bitcoin. It is all about the choice to make and doesn't make anyone so stupid about it.

Those who hate Bitcoin are people without mind in their heads because someone who has a little knowledge about finance and freedom would accept Bitcoin without any obligation. I would consider them arrogant because they really missed a great invention due to their own stupidity. Those days are long gone when people considered Bitcoin as a scam or something that can go zero in value anytime. Now most of the people accept the fact that Bitcoin is the future and many skeptical people have invested in Bitcoin.

Many people have come up with their own personal attack against bitcoin through hate speech and the governments also have in their own way contributed in making this same attack on bitcoin, but no any amount of these attacks aimed on bitcoin ever stand because bitcoin is a digital currency that is independent of their various individual speech, this make the bitcoin network rather to be more stronger the more the attack, the more the adoption increases

Hate speech from ordinary individuals may not have any significant repercussions. However, what about hate speech coming from influential figures like Elon Musk or Bill Gates? This could be a concerning practice, whether it's part of a calculated tug-of-war or an outright attempt to undermine. Bitcoin is still in its nascent stages, and despite its growing adoption, a fundamental issue it may face is the potential for price manipulation.

We all aspire to live in a just world, but those with higher levels of power also seek greater gains. I wouldn't characterize this as a threat to new users, but rather as a objective consideration of the worst-case scenarios that could unfold.

Since some people are quick to adopt what other people say without trying to find out reasons of their own, the hate speech may make some people never know what bitcoins really are. But the people that hate bitcoins are helping bitcoin in a way because anytime they express their hatred for bitcoins, people will always wonder why they hate the thing called bitcoin so much. They may indirectly be helping to tell people about bitcoins and raise the interest of people to want to know what bitcoins are.

I know it isn't free but my friend fiat is also not free and it also doesn't grow on trees. The ones who can acquire fiat can also acquire Bitcoin and the ones who can't acquire fiat may not be able to acquire Bitcoin. Nothing in this world is free and I must say that anyone who runs after the things that are free may not get the things that he/she deserves. Bitcoin mining is expensive and I agree with you, and only someone with good financial condition may have a mining setup, but anyone who earns minimum $40 a week can at least invest in Bitcoin by following a DCA strategy.

I personally know many people from third-world countries who have their investment in Bitcoin and that's why anyone who has a little bit of extra money can purchase Bitcoin. Those who're barely surviving may not be able to invest in it but my friend Bitcoin allows international audience to send transactions and maybe in future we see some funding sites that may implement Bitcoin so the financially stable ones may help the needy ones with Bitcoin transactions. Bitcoin isn't only an asset and it is a way of payment as well. As an asset only financially stable ones can invest in it but as a payment gateway it can be used to help so many people who can't be helped with fiat due to regional restrictions.
