I never thought I'd ever see someone argue against helping kids with cancer DIRECTLY when we have excess in the palm our hands, and yet here we are.
So you're saying he should have wasted that banana when there's children starving in Africa?
No you plant the banana and let it multiply so you can dig them up in the warm season and feed many
Sadly, that's not how bananas work.
Yeah you put them in the ground and then the flowers bloom on the tap root that comes out the end of the banana. They are then fertilised by earth worms and once the bananas ripen you then pull them out as the bunch we all know and love.
wtf alien banana are you talking about
Bananas are weird trees, not under the ground. Just in case you aren't just talking shit for fun.
You're mad at the wrong person. He only has a banana. The banana "artist" has $6.2 million now. Why aren't they helping kids with cancer? I suggest you go yell at them.
Do you think someone spends $6.2 million on fruit if they don't have an extra few million? He had $6.2 million at MINIMUM, and he chose to eat a banana instead of healing children.
I think it's perfectly fair to be mad at a person for the actions they took.
According to this great reporting by Protos, he holds over $580,000,000 in just Bitcoin, with tens (and sometimes hundreds) of millions in other assets, like TRON (the coin you can see promoted on the side of his microphone in the article's photo) which is a clone of the Ethereum blockchain he made by simply copying the code, artificially lowering fees, then publishing it as if he created it.
Not only is he a rich douchebag, but he's also a plagiarist.
