It’s not that people who don’t understand Bitcoin are stupid, they’re just ignorant.
However, if you *do* understand Bitcoin and are still against it, you are stupid.
Ignorance is a lack of knowledge; stupidity is a lack of wisdom/judgment, even in the presence of knowledge.

There are people CHOOSING to remain ignorant though, and I classify those people as stupid. People that have been told about it for half a decade and still won't look into it. Purposeful ignorance is idiotic.
If you don't understand it by now you are either fucking stupid or fucking lazy.
Idk 1 person who understands it and it’s against it. NOT 1.
People don’t like to admit that they were wrong about something.
Quite a bit of science is false because of this .
This reeks of blank slateism. There are plenty of people who are too naturally stupid to understand Bitcoin. It's not just that they won't, it's that they simply can't.
We don't like to talk about this. It seems uncouth, but it is the truth.
Or a moron, someone who chooses to remain ignorant.
Agreed. I know many friends who do not need to know, they choose to work harder than the next rat, and from the outside it looks like they’re doing well. I’ve continued to passively educate them about Bitcoin, tailoring the discussion to relate to their personal experiences, and occasionally I see a flicker of understanding but not enough to push past ignorance. It really is bliss, and for many I think they’re just trying to keep their lives simple and don’t want any disruption. It’s been a couple years since my orange pill moment, lost a lot of sleep since, hell I feel like a different person, and I know I’m so much better for it. People really do get the price they deserve.
It's like that old psyche joke: "if you're always early you're insecure; if you're always late you're passive aggressive; and if you're always on time then you're obsessive. So if you're a noob you're ignorant; if you're a shitcoiner you're stupid; and if you're an all-in maxi you're retarded?
Go Walkz… think we also got ppl who are against bitcoin cos its the tip of the sword of global change
Most times people are not bad, they are just stupid and or ignorant
