    I think you are giving crypto bors too much credit. The entire industry is literally built on exploiting other people (and that’strue for most industries under capitalism) but in crypot it’s in a far more direct often scamming way. Anyone who’s a crypto bro at this point in time does not care aboiut morals or ethics cause if tehy did they woudln’t be a crypto bro. I doubt many of them think they are the good guys at best they are moral nihilists. It’s definitley not that htey are too sucked into realize this person calling themselve sevil. or doing evil things. it’s more that htey care more about money than they do of morals.

    There is something to risk reduction, but it’s more about voting strategically, if you have a chance to sway the election it makes sense to vote in arisk reductive manner from a practical standpoint, however, There’s also something to be said about voting for a marxist canidate not because they have a good chance of getting elected but to show support for a marxist party. To make it more clear people support them. The lesser evil concept in us democracy is stupid to begin with because a. in the presidential election the majority of the population has bascially no effect on the system if you live in california they are going to vote blue if you live in texas tehy are giong to vote red. As such ti doesnt’ really matter. It also assumes the reason for voting is to get people elected. Which as a revolutionary marxist it should be more a means to an end regardless. You vote to raise awareness of your cause and to create solidarity. If you are voting in an electino you mathematically have virtually zero chance of swaying it makes more sense to vote for a marxist canidate in the hopes that if enough people vote for it it might show up in statistics and introduce people to the cause.
