Quite difficult to relate to why any purported probitcoin person would be so adamant in burning bridges in these parts ... sure nothing wrong with calling names and even taking strong positions that might not be part of the party line...
Yeah, guys/gals here do not always respond to some issues or concerns that are expressed, and for example, I probably brought up one of my issues with setting sell orders above $100k on BinanceUS several times, and no one even attempted to address the issue... yet still, on a personal level, there are many times that I have batted around ideas and gotten more insight from such batting around of the ideas, and yeah, surely members here might consider me to be a bit combative and offensive from time to time, but some members are still able to deal with those kinds of tonal matters, call me a few names, and still end up addressing my questions... even if I might not necessarily agree with their answer, I have been able to go through some kinds of meaningful and substantive backs and forths that have allowed me to at least understand my position a bit better, and maybe to consider if I might want to reformulate some of my thoughts on the matter.
It seems to me that being too combative precludes a decent amount of substantive discussion, and members will largely not cooperate at all. Anyhow, members can treat their credibility here however they wish.
You’re slightly missing the point Jay.
By the time I’m done, this thread will have - hopefully - recovered its original glory. [was there ever? I don’t know tbh, but you get my point]
I don’t seek anybody's cooperation, compliance, merit or anything else for that matter. I couldn’t care less about the “credibility” of my account, much less if it ever becomes “legendary”.
I just want to call out the liars. About everything - to the best of my ability.
The liars that have politicised this thread, manipulating their way in one way or the other, whilst at the same time distorting “common sense”. [No Arrie, not you]
I would like to read everybody’s else opinion about anything. Off topic, on topic, just no shills please. I’ve just had it with all the bullshit.
That’s my mission. We owe it to Satoshi.
Along with those liars, we need to call out the "Agent Provocateur" accounts here on Bitcointalk and WO that are clearly govt shill/bot accounts, because they constantly spout out all the MSM bullshit agenda talking points no matter what the actual topic is. And yes, they distort common sense to the point of complete exhaustion...because it's their job, no doubt they get paid to do it. Btw, some of them were former pro-bitcoin, pro-Libertarian "good guys" accounts, whose owners obviously at some point sold their account to a fucking shill. You can go back and look at their complete post history and see the exact point when their narrative (and even their writing style) began to change for the worse.
This website got infiltrated by them long ago, but they stayed focused mainly on Bitcoin bear trolling or shitcoin bull shilling until just a few years ago. So it wasn't that big of a deal. But now? Now they go after and jump down the throats of anyone in any Bitcointalk thread, including in the WO, that isn't towing the MSM liberal bullshit agenda line on any particular topic. The very minute someone posts an informed and well-researched thought/opinion that doesn't tow the party line, they swarm all over it like flies to shit. It's fucking ridiculous.
I personally refuse to post here anymore about any topic outside of Bitcoin or the Fed/economy, no matter how innocuous it might seem to me. Don't want to deal with the bullshit anymore.
