Title: This is not America
Post by: giszmo on October 26, 2011, 01:07:59 PM
Hi forum readers,

I don't know statistics of this very forum and taken it is in English people from gods own country might be slightly over represented here but:
Good lord what are we living in the days of the NAZIS.  THis is america people.
is a big and very common FAIL here on the forum!
To all of you who think like mizike29: PLEASE wake up! Bitcoin is not about your country, your local branch of your bank or about you personally. We live in a world of 7 billion people, not 400 million. Do the math. You are the 6%. Even owning 50% of all Bitcoins doesn't justify mizike29's attitude.

This is highly unworthy of "Bitcoin Discussion".
So Bitcoin Discussion is for the high value content? Didn't know that. Where is the "crap and unimportant stuff" section?
Seriously, you might be right there is a better section for this. Please move to Meta. Else the value of a post usually differs between recipients and this subject bothers me more than most of those "bitcoin will die" and "buy buy buy" posts also found here.

I respectfully disagree, Matthew. Although I'm not sure what the reference to mizike29 is all about, I have to wholeheartedly agree with the following quote:

Perhaps, if we all took off our winkers, we'll be able to see, let alone service, our global fans. We may be a long way from the home stretch, but at least Bitcoin's out of the gate, with many wagering their energies on this horse.

Isn't this America? Oh, I'm sorry I thought this was America.
