/btc is full of Hypocrites and Shills (Bitcoin Classic)

[RealBitcoin]

/btc subreddit (Bitcoin Classic) is full of hypocrites or shills or just plain insane people. First they say that the forum is heavily censored, which is not. It's only moderated in a way to not let shills manipulate the public opinion, which they obviously do

(just look at reddit bots manipulating votes which most likely comes from Bitcoin Classic butthurt people:

Then after we try to show that we are pro-decentralization by removing alert keys alltogether, look what these crybabies are thinking:

https://www.reddit.com/r/btc/comments/4bv49v/p2p_alert_system_removed_theymos_access_revoked/

No. They removed it to make a hardfork MORE difficult and risky.

They removed it because they're insane and thought Gavin would somehow use it to sabotage them.

They removed it so that if Classic activates, stragglers won't get notified, thus creating a shitstorm.

Theymos needs to be removed from everything related to Bitcoin tbh.

A censorship-friendly totalitarian communist named: utopiawesome wants to delete the /bitcoin subreddit

These guys are pure insane people, or they are dirty shills trying to once again manipulate public opinion. So what happened to their decentralization rhetoric? Now that a real decentralization step is done, they are suddenly against it.

They are also mostly totalitarian communists that want to destroy free market capitalism and bitcoin with it!

The poet shills are there for kinda long time. They shill for their agenda.

but i don't think that there's 100% connection between the shills and the so called sillicon valley or entepeneurs and between the washington / wall street whatever people. they may be as well separate groups.

but then again im not a detective

anyway it's fully USA-related thing.

Of course, they may just be a group that want to take over bitcoin, or even pump & dumpers trying to manipulate the price.

After so much classic FUD spreading the bitcoin price surely took a hit, and i`m sure some people profited from it.

Manipulation is everywhere so people need to be more skeptic.

Could you please explain what you mean by " Classic supporters are controlled opposition" I just don't understand what you mean, thanks.

Who do you think is controlling them?

Reddit in general is the biggest cesspool on the Internet. Only thing worth reading is the AMA's and that's it for me.

[watashi-kokoto]

well the shills enjoy scaring people but from what i see, they're not really harmful , worst they can do is give u minus points when you talk to them. but only thing they do is scary, lie, try to convince everybody, etc..

I feel pretty relaxed. Yes it can be shady , but the big business may be happening on the background.

the way they convince u is always the same. when u know the tricks u have no problem.

Personally i think twitter is worse, becase there real AI bots feed you propaganda.

I think reddit is fine ,but it needs better voting system, for example the instant voting manipulation should be fixed.

Thanks for the heads up, I was starting to think that myself.
I did want to ask who he thinks "they" are.

Yeah never got into reddit myself.

[Denker]

Just don't go there.
Everybody knows that this subreddit is full of conspiracy theorists, core and blockstream haters, scammers and so on.
Reading there will either make you laugh hard or give you incredible headache.

[Amph]

well we are lucky that b itcoin is decentralized or a bunch of this dude could lead us all to the wrong way, to in the end it does not matter for what they vote, the final consensus will make the right choice for everyone

I have had a bad luck there trying to oppose people out there.
It is the shillicon valley!!!

moderate, is just to remove talk of illegal activity..

censoring is to delete posts/comments and ban/suspend people just because the opinion is different to what the forum staff  have when talking about something ontopic

so i agree this forum tries its best to not censor people, and does try to stick to only moderating... i do find it funny that the moderators working for this forum cant accept any opinion that differs from the blockstream rhetoric.

its also funny that those same blockstreamers cannot use statistics or numbers to rebutt. but instead resort to insults. which funnily enough is breaking their own rules and technically means they should ban themselves.

i know they are protected from self-banning and use that to poke the bear to make everything into a personal attack until the other person personally attacks them as a plausible excuse to ban the person.

in my opinion there should be no classic vs blockstream debate. and that there should HAPPILY be MANY implementations, and that no codebase should have ultimate power of the code.

but we do have blockstreamers wanting blockstream to own and control the rules.. afterall there is 55million invested. and please dont reply that the 55millionis only used for a handful of people not related to the code in any way. or that blockstream only pays a couple people with no control.

Well, has any moderator commented on this here thinking not personally?
All views here are personal (AFAIU) opinions of the members, none is censoring them....

many non blockstreamers have had temporal bans for a couple days, had posts deleted, where the content of such posts were not related to illegal activity.

I've visited r/btc and I think it's an interesting place full of opinions and information that you can't get anywhere else. For example all the translations of Chinese forum threads, which give an insight into what bitcoiners over there exist. So I'm glad r/btc exists.

No. Stop defending due to bias when it is obvious that you are not right.
OP, there was a post in their own subreddit about it: Meta...Anyone else sick of this sub being anti-r/Bitcoin instead of pro-Bitcoin? . You will find people justifying these actions which makes one wonder whether:
1) They're sadists.
2) They're shills.
3) There's something else wrong with them.
This negativity does not help anyone. It is time to stop.

So I'm glad r/btc exists.

This must be a joke gone bad.

Nope, I like reading that sub, it's chock full of interesting stuff that you just can't find anywhere else. It's an sad commentary about how other bitcoin spaces no longer chat freely about everything going on in the bitcoin space.
