    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.

                  So you’re saying that you do not prescribe to bitcoins approach?

                  You believe that it’s all bullshit and are not saying the whole world’s financial systems are about to topple on a whim?
