Quick reminder to not poor-shame people
<!-- SC_OFF --><div class="md"><p>I see it too often in crypto groups, and it can be really disheartening sometimes. Before you make fun of or berate someone for panicking about "only $X", please take a minute to consider that not everybody is a middle+ class first worlder or got into crypto early. Even when it comes to first world people, think about how little the average person has in savings. Scam victims are also a thing.</p> <p>That $20, $50, $100, etc., however much may appear minuscule to you, may be someone's only hope for a way out of a miserable financial situation ?♂️</p> <p>I know how ridiculous it is to be down five digits on an investment and see someone causing the biggest ruckus over their 0.00001% stack.. but you can easily tell them to stfu without mentioning that they have nothing ?</p> <p>That's all ✌️</p> <p>Edit: To clarify, I wasn't referring to anything I've seen here on reddit. This is a common thing mostly on telegram and discord (and 4chan, but they don't really count), but there's not really a good way of doing a "PSA: stop being a dick to poor people" on those apps (other than 4chan, but again.. lost cause there). Sorry about the confusion :-)</p> </div><!-- SC_ON --> submitted by <a href="https://www.reddit.com/user/randomstatementguy"> /u/randomstatementguy </a> <br/> <span><a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/CryptoCurrency/comments/pmbf0q/quick_reminder_to_not_poorshame_people/">[link]</a></span> <span><a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/CryptoCurrency/comments/pmbf0q/quick_reminder_to_not_poorshame_people/">[comments]</a></span>Kind Regards R
