Haha, sounds like they're just rationalizing to themselves why they don't / shouldn't own bitcoin.  I'd probably just end the convo with like, "Sure, you can see it that way if you want, but to me I am just trying to support a more free and fair monetary system."

Oh you're right, except then the tables may get turned on you (they have on me) and you're being speculating against inflation! Not making this up, I literally heard this argument twice where one even went on to tell me I'm a cheater for not feeling the inflation as hard. No joke. Needless to say no orange pilling these... yet.

PS: "corporate greed" discussions are such a brainwave killer, lol.
