"If the yen carry trade breaks, #bitcoin will be below 40k in a hurry. If you disagree, you are obviously a shitcoiner." One post, one logical fallacy...twice. 👇 image

I'd like to start a thread listing historical people that no one has heard of. But if they did, the world would make MUCH MORE more sense...Let's start here: image

Grammar is important... Definitions matter, and they also change. This difference is one way they've been able to get away with money printing for so long.

Daily Trivium. Hero worship: The Perfect is the Enemy of the Good: This fallacy is relevant to hero worship as it implies that since no one is perfect, there can be no true heroes. This perspective can lead to a rejection of heroic figures altogether, as exemplified in the “Hero-Busting” approach. The Slippery Slope Fallacy: Hero worship can sometimes involve an exaggerated or unrealistic expectation of a hero’s abilities, leading to a slippery slope of disappointment or disillusionment when the hero is found to be imperfect or flawed. The False Dichotomy: Hero worship can create a false dichotomy between the hero and others, elevating the hero to an unrealistic pedestal and diminishing the achievements and contributions of others. The Argument from Authority: Hero worship can sometimes involve an uncritical acceptance of a hero’s opinions or actions simply because of their status as a hero, rather than critically evaluating their arguments or decisions. The Appeal to Emotion: Hero worship often relies heavily on emotional appeals, such as nostalgia, admiration, or reverence, rather than rational evaluation of the hero’s actions or character. The Fallacy of Oversimplification: Hero worship can oversimplify complex historical or social contexts, reducing nuanced stories to simplistic narratives of good vs. evil or heroism vs. villainy. The False Narrative: Hero worship can create a false narrative about a hero’s life, actions, or motivations, which may not accurately reflect the historical record or the complexities of the hero’s character.

First time here in Vancouver. I am pleasantly surprised to see so many traditional families with multiple small children (2 or more). And everyone seems to have a dog 😊. People here are extremely friendly, but they don't know shit about #bitcoin. 2 out of 3 ain't bad I guess! go BC.
