this is exactly why i never liked these kinds of debates. i see no point in them. neither side is going to come down from their positions, they just stick to whatever the hell they think and just talk their heads off. in the end the viewer wastes his time while in the end is not able to make any conclusions.
While I agree with you, I like hearing criticisms though. I think it's healthy to listen to the negative criticisms from time to time, not just the positive things. Sometimes I feel like I'm overly too bullish that I feel I need a little bit of bearish in me to balance things out a bit.
criticism is OK, in fact i myself criticize bitcoin a lot and the more i learn about the technical aspect of it the more i criticize certain decisions. for example the most recent problem i have is that each transaction we have been sending for the past 10 years is wasting about 10-12 bytes!
but arrogant people who don't want to accept things and only focus on the negative and even exaggerate those negative things aren't really criticizing anything.
