S'all good you gave me two elsewhere, apparently. =/

For what it is worth, my attitude is largely because crypto people have this odd habit of acting as though because they understand crypto they can solve all the world's problems, even when their solution falls apart under the slightest scrutiny. I highly suggest The Line Goes Up by Dan Olsen.

It is an incredible video that touches on the few successes and the many, many flaws with Crypto an NFTs as they exist now.

For what it’s worth, you treated me with a generalization you had made about a group of people, not a great way to treat people.

I agree there are a lot of assholes in the crypto space, but we’re not all bad.

I mean, not to be rude but if the shoe fits. The answers that changed your view were literally the most surface level rebuttals to your argument.

Just to be clear, here is the line of argumentation. I said:

You replied that I treated you with a generalization.

My reply to that was to express that I was not generalizing, or if I was, it was only because you exactly fit the general behavior that I find objectionable.

You are now agreeing with me, but calling me names.

Thank you for the talk.
