    How is it bullshit to point out the fact that supporters of Bitcoin, which has a fixed supply, would obviously be critical of printing off more of a fiat currency?

        How is it bullshit to point out that someone’s argument is bullshit?

        Yes, that is exactly what I just asked you. Are you capable of answering the question, or is shadow-boxing the best you can do?

          Sounds like we’re in a loop.

          So let’s take it up a level.

          You think printing money is the issue why?

          Do you have a link for us to buy gold bars?

            We’re not in a loop, you just wanted to call what I said bullshit without understanding it. Once I explained it, you realized you were wrong, and are now trying to pivot.

              Because inflation and deflation are exact opposites…

              I’m not wrong and you are offering “fisher-price-my-first-Econ”

              You just keep trying to salvage shit despite me giving you an out. This is a loop stemming from a negatively ranked comment that started the thread. While you keep doubling down on shit

                I clarified it for you:

                How is it bullshit to point out the fact that supporters of Bitcoin, which has a fixed supply, would obviously be critical of printing off more of a fiat currency?

                Explain how that’s bullshit. Or keep shadow-boxing. Up to you.

                  This is not worth it.

                  You’re asking me to explain why bitcoin supporters would support bitcoin?

                  I get it! You call the world a fiat printing bs machine. Im sorry im not directly refuting that. All in due time.

                  In the next five minutes are you okay with tostadas while the man dives from a cave? Why are you so upset?

                    This is not worth it.

                    And yet you keep engaging, despite not even being the person I replied to in the first place.

                    You’re asking me to explain why bitcoin supporters would support bitcoin?

                    Of course not. Let me spell it out for you again:

                    The person I replied to tried to use bitcoin supporters complaining about the Fed creating money as a gotcha.

                    I explained how that doesn’t land because:

                    supporters of Bitcoin, which has a fixed supply, would obviously be critical of printing off more of a fiat currency.

                    Then you called it bullshit, but have been incapable of explaining why that is. Instead choosing to shadow-box with made up arguments.
