When people claim to have strong conviction about something but then frame it in a dishonest or unfair way they expose their inner insecurity about their conviction. I've noticed this among some of my Christian brothers and sisters. Being defensive or using straw man arguments as bitcoiners doesn't show strength.

Most criticisms of bitcoin are pretty weak and have been shot down long ago, not talking about that. I'm talking about acting like the purchasing power isn't volatile. Or like certain actors in the space don't matter when they clearly do.

I think this kind of reaction signals weakness and insecurity.
