No, just not understanding why someone saying they work for Meta or Google is seen as A-OK on this forum, but if someone even mentions crypto, they raise such antagonism.

The difference is subtle: the FAANGs inflict ills whereas crypto itself is an ill. I guess some people split hairs over a distinction like that, but I hold them in similar regard.

I have to disagree: crypto let me send money to my acquaintances in less lucky in their birth place then me while enabling scams, Facebook lets my company advertise while manipulating people brains; I don't see why one is more intrinsically ill than the other.
