It’s funny, when I see critics of crypto currencies, there’s always one crypto currency which solves that particular problem. Crypto advocates always seem to have another argument in their toolkit. If you put forwards an economic argument against, they will rave about the technical benefits. If you bring technical arguments, they will shout about the economic benefits or how this currencies over here solves that problem. Quite magical and convenient to be honest. Circular arguments similar to debating the existence of God…
- twiceaday 5y agoThis is simply the result of arguing with a group instead of an individual. Once refuted, the person you were speaking to does not change their mind, at least not publicly. They fade into the crowd like Homer into that hedge and another person steps up to "whatabout" something new. The group will switch around its voting to ensure this. A group cannot admit it was wrong. This functionally happens only by membership in that group dwindling, likely as it gets more argumentative.
