Isn't Brave just a crypto scam? I have no clue why people trust it so much

It gets pushed often by reactionaries as an "anti-woke" browser LOL its a complete piece of shit. It's got crypto, tracking, NFTs, AI and ads baked in. Literally everything I hate about the tech industry rolled up into one package. I'd rather use Chrome, even.

anti-woke

I find it quite interesting those who protest being woke. The word 'woke' has a long standing meaning to the Black community. The usual suspects using the word 'anti-woke' are almost always American Republicans, and their track record of racial animosity has preceded itself for generations like the stench of a rotting corpse. Given the choice between being woke or asleep, I'll take woke any day.
