What you did there is also logically fallacious. This is a general pattern that you can see in my concocted case. "Bitcoin is a scam" sort of fits pattern. Thus it is logically fallacious also and deserves no consideration.
Does not follow.

Really? Some believe in strange things like the Bible being inerrant when even a casual limited reading shows blatant contradictions. But I have never encountered anyone who claimed that they believed in Flat Earth because of their religion. The Bible doe not say it is flat. If you think so then exactly where does it say so?

can't be much dumber than some humans

I know with utter certainty that total surveillance is total control including in the financial arena. It is not for the public. It is for the rulers to know every cent you make and spend and to better extract it from you and take advantage of that knowledge. You can't have freedom with your every move tracked.

Certainly a lot of bull in most markets these days.

In you humble POV? That is basic sanity. If there is no reality independent of perception then there is nothing to perceive and "perception" is a sham.

For most civilians "surveillance capitalism" has collected as much data and continuously that any adversary could every want. They don't need human contact in the face of that. I am surprised you would seemingly say otherwise.

Considering what they have allowed their own government to do to them I wouldn't get my hopes up.

Government should not have monopolized anything. But that they are in to it does not mean it isn't a good thing. Government tries to take over everything and convince us that it is the only way we can have everything. Please do not fall for it.

And BTW, no one's 'needs' are a claim check to be met by others by forcing them too. More government corruption.

There are vast resources including $trillions in precious metals in near earth asteroids alone. If we ended anti-nuclear power hysteria we would have no energy issues.
