Why is the government so opposed to this and people are asspained about it??
How is this any different than an actual legitimate version of tether / USDC?

I used to hate cuckerberg, and I hate facebook. However, this reptile is pushing forward with VR and it's actually innovative, and blockchain which could be innovative.

Who gives a fuck about libra if its just a stablecoin and you don't have to use it. These shills want global currency anyway so why not ENCOURAGE America to lead the way?

FUCK BOOMERS.

Cuz, like, fuck Facebook lol, Facebook is for old people and Zuckerberg is super creepy. Plus he like, knows everything I put on my page, and he like, let drumpf win. Soo glad a strong independent woman like Cortez is there to tell that loser to leave us alone. Power to the people!

Oh, what the rich get richer and cuckerberg can have more money to move forward with actual innovations?

Feel the same way op. I thought about it and I came to the conclusion that it’s because boomers are fucking stupid.

We grew up with the internet. They didn’t. The internet has allowed the level of communication between humans to become so much more efficient that boomers can’t compete.

This is already the situation for most of us in the first world. Corporations transmit spells to alter the overton window via branding(rainbows, feminism, beyond meat). Consumers simply do not question the source of production, in fact they demand to be fed a cooked narrative as their life is completely empty without new content and products to consume.

If you realize this and break yourself of the conditioning, it is extremely empowering.

this.
Imagine that Facebook gaining access to all data of money transaction. A complete overview of the flow of money in the digital sphere, combined with a complete overview of social interactions on the internet.

Already now, we have people like Merkel etc. meeting with a private citizen in the US to discuss how they can fight "disinformation" and election-meddeling. Why? because Mark can actually do something about these things, something that no one in Germany can.
With Libra, the list of powerful people asking Mark about this or that will grow longer, and their requests will also increase.
Mark will become the most powerful man on the planet.

That semblance of government control is why it's so dangerous. Most people think the federal government controls the federal reserve. It's literally the reason they named it that. If everyone knew that the government and by extension they have zero control over the currency of their nation there would be riots in the street to end it. And no, the government has no control over the military either. Those need money to operate which is controlled and issued by a private corporation.
