Title: Popescu'd need not be a verb nor a discussion. All say aye.., say AYE!, "AYE!"
Post by: zumzero on March 22, 2014, 01:51:58 AM
I loathe Mircea Popescu.  I wish this person no harm however.

I believe in Bitcoin and shudder when I see maniacs like this taking centre stage for all the wrong reasons.

THIS is why your parents warn you away from talking to strangers.  It's to avoid danger, no less.

Mircea Popescu proffers not your acceptance, but commands centre stage.  Eek!

Wake up.  Smell the ashes.  Fight to protect your own decisions and remove the decision making process from manipulators like Mircea Popescu.

Honestly, just think twice about accepting the kinda stuff these people tell you.  Bitcoin or not.

The Feds are hunting Mircea Popescu and ironically this very person who has trolled all the Bitcoin startups is finally getting his come-upance.  It's poetry in motion and not even Mircea is able to talk his way out of this one.

Ones ability to detect the fowl stench of this horror is not determined through the blind acceptance of Mercea Popescu's every rant,  more the total and utter deflated feeling experienced by those who realise that yet again the layman has been ripped off and deceived, says it all.

My favorite poster here, easily one of the smartest and most crypto-knowledgey legends to ever grace this forum.

OP stinks of envy.

The Feds are hunting Mircea Popescu...
So what you're saying is that Mircea is a hero of truth and justice, than? I mean, if the fucking FEDS are after him/her...

I am on your side.  I don't want to shout it out too loud though.  I want to engage discussion.  We, as a community, need to stand up against potential dictators.  Are we not supposed to be all about decentralisation?  If so, let's commit to that very concept when it comes to choosing leadership.   Bitcoin is becoming very powerful and power corrupts, like it or not.  We have a duty of care to protect ourselves and each other, and ensure that the bitcoin code prevents such ills.  Bitcoin will only ever succeed if we allow it to do what it is meant to do.  In my view, it is only a matter of time until we all hand over trust to mathematics.  I can't wait!

OP is in an abusive relationship with an elderly alcoholic named Ken Slaughter.  Textbook shit -- suppressed rage, inappropriately externalized emotions, grandiose verbiage.
He's usually not a bother, there's a containment thread we started for him, "[ActiveMining] Official Shareholder Discussion Thread [Moderated]," and he sorta keeps to himself there, but he gets out and shits up the forum once in a while.
