What's annoying about realizing the inherent meta-aspect of liberty the concept of bitcoin contains? Centralized authorities have almost always had control over the monetary supply of the people and bitcoin is the first viable alternative. I think when something as basic as currency can be shown to work effectively without control by a violent monopoly (the State), people may begin to explore that basic philosophy of liberty in other areas as well.
That. Just that.
"The gubbimint's bad, mkay?"
Bloody annoying is what it is.
Like the tech, hate the fanbois.
Then why don't you fess up with an argument shilling for the Fed if you don't like it.
And "fanboy" is hardly a justified term to use. If you are a "fanboy" for the present monetary system then put up an argument for it, instead of just calling others who are against the system "fanboys". People become "fanboys" for apple products and game consoles, not ideologies. I don't imagine you would defend central banking, but I also must say it is very very easy to argue that the term "violent monopoly" applies to the government.
Anyways, to comment on the thread subject, it doesn't seem to be just the slashdot crowd that likes to bash bitcoin.
