I also think this. It's is essentially impossible to predict all the changes that bitcoin will bring. And some of them are bound to be profoundly negative, even if it ends up a net benefit overall.
I believe early internet enthusiasts also claimed similar things to "fix the world". The internet has brought so many good things. But now we have propaganga on steroids and a huge loss of privacy. People are losing their minds due to information overload.
Many bitcoiners, imo, like early internet adopters, tend to be dogmatic and look at things through rose-tinted glasses. Bitcoiner's deeper consideration of the topic doesn't prevent outsiders recognising their common tendency to gloss over the potential negatives.
