Recently I saw it appear on Infowars in a 5min documentary against Bitcoin. If Tucker Carlson interviewed Roger Ver then it must be true. It is pure group-think, but as you said, we all have this flaw. So I forgive but it is saddening to see yet again people criticizing Bitcoin for nothing.

I saw it in Japan also with what is I think Chinese propaganda against the US. Not that I am in favor of US military bases, I am rather against, but the reasoning against military bases in Okinawa felt not so much rational but rather anger against Americans. And in my mind, anger = emotions = likely from propaganda.

In my case I try to focus on positive things, try to remain open to all ideas and above all, avoid social networks like Facebook or Twitter. Particularly with social networks I think people get very polarized, almost like a frenzy sometimes.
