Ancora????

Come provocazione intellettual/politica e null'altro, perche' il

Ripeto: Ancora 'ste favole????

Facciamo una cosa (in questo e tutti gli altri casi del genere):
provate a sostituire "national borders" con "tazze del cesso, fogne e
acqua potabile". Se il risultato vi sembra che regga senza dover
diventare tutti entita' incorporee, ne riparliamo.

E infatti, qui si parla di comprare terra, mica spazi web:

Questa roba esiste gia' da decenni, senza nessun bisogno di bitcoin e
"acrobazie mentali". Ed e' regolarmente allagata (proprio perche' le

Far fetched no, ma e' una fregatura. Anche qui, nulla di nuovo, e fa
la fine ovvia che merita:

Appunto: credulous
