RE: taking flags like man
Did he steal the money from you? Or did you willingly hand over your funds? Economic Darwinism like i said. DW karma and shit though.

So are you saying that "economic darwinism" makes it ethical to trick people into handing over their funds? Yes you're right that people who invested in Bitconnect without realising it was a scam are idiots, but that doesn't make it ok to exploit them imo.
Yeah sure it's bad and unethical and all that shit. But it happened, time to nut up and learn what responsibility for your actions means. All people (especially men) need experiences like this to teach them, if they do not already have the capacity, to avoid making stupid decisions.
Reality is that ethical has nothing to do with it. Not everybody lives inside so bubble wrapped dome that protects them from "unethical" things. Crying to lawyers and the gov't robs you of the opportunity to become responsible for your actions. Teaches those the state will fix all their problems for them. No need to be a smarter person or a better investor. Just sue anyone that doesn't make you rich. I'm down 2k on XRL. Should i sue them? I can make a case they duped me and whaaaaa gimme back my money!!! But it's pathetic really.
Yes I totally agree about not going crying to the government etc and I would rather have more freedom than a restrictive playpen telling me what I can and can't invest in. However my point is that Craig should have been honest and told people they were investing in a scam. I'm not from coming from a legal perspective, but a moral one.
Did Craig really know tho? He was just as hopeful as anyone i bet. There were plenty of ppl out there sharing info on this project besides Craig. If Craig were "honest" and told ppl "sign up under me for this awesome scam," how many ppl would have signed up. (Hopeully none). It's the greater fool theory in practice. What is or isn't moral does not matter when people are blinded by greed and the promise of quick money. All are guilty that participate; from cryptonick/trevon/craig/carlos matos all the way down to the dudes that signed up the day before shit went bad IMO. Were you not one of these people either? If not good for you and it's nice that you are trying to understand ppl's feelings and whatnot but you have to let this whole thing burn and not get involved if you weren't already IMO. I'm only here to laugh at Craig cuz I knew he was a huckster from the video when he went to his parents house. 4 minutes in I thought "this guy is fulla shit." So just wanted to serve him a few jabs, but these ppl that fell for it also have a share in the blame.
