Hasn't addressed jack shit anywhere in this post. Can't imagine how pointless and void of factual information his "documentary" is

Literally any technology is "tech with a mission," PeR sE

Technology doesn't just spontaneously appear, you know. That doesn't mean its usage must remain the same for eternity. People work to make it happen, and there's always some sort of mission involved. At every stage.

Do you think electricity was harnessed with the goal of everybody having little computers the size of their hand that could connect them to anybody anywhere else on the planet at any time? Do you think computers were invented to play video games? Do you think the internet was created to watch porn and like social media posts?

We know now, based on overwhelming data, there are many more advantages to using a monetary system that supports quantitative easing.

What overwhelming data? If it is overwhelming, it should be extremely easy to provide irrefutable evidence of your claim. Without requiring us to watch your "documentary." You're making the claims here. So provide your proof.

He was wrong, and his proponents are also wrong: The tech can't do that.

You literally don't know that and have said absolutely nothing to back it up, besides pointing to magical "overwhelming data"

Blockchain as a technological prototype is totally inert.

How so?

But, blockchain as a tool that claims to be able to ward against inflation, guarantee the authenticity of things in the real world, be immune to censorship, or even perpetually increase in value.... that is a scam. That's not true.

You seem to be using "blockchain" and "cryptocurrency" interchangeably based on what is convenient for your current gripe. Which, you cycle through a lot of gripes in each of your comments without ever actually answering or expanding on anything. It seems obvious to me that you don't like "cryptobros" and have decided that Blockchain is evil.

Pro tip: if you're going to make an AMA to promote a "documentary," you should be able to give a lot of interesting information and answers that compel people to want to learn more and watch your project. Instead, you give vague answers that amount to nothing more than "BLOCKCHAIN EVIL AND I AM VERY SMART 🤓" in every single response. I'm sure you got a couple thousand more views though, like you hoped, so congrats

You seem to be wanting to create distractions instead of talk specifics.

Is that so? I haven't seen you talk specifics anywhere in this post.

Pick one. Pick Blockchain or crypto. Pick a specific crypto. Pick a specific Blockchain.

I want you to talk about Blockchain technology. You know, like your documentary is supposedly about? Pretty damn obvious that's what I want you to talk about. Yet, you seem to want to create distractions instead of talk specifics....

I'm prepared to talk specifics if you'd like

Is that why you blocked me immediately after making this comment? To ensure that you don't actually have to answer anything and make it look like you "won" here?

Again, all these criticisms are vague personal attacks

Sure, that's probably fair to say for the most part. But you brought it on yourself when you came here to promo your documentary and have REPEATEDLY shown how clueless you are on the topic. You're dodging questions and giving non-answers left and right. Your documentary is literally titled "Blockchain: " and whatever the rest of the title is. Your title of this post literally says "I produced a matter-of-fact documentary film that exposes Blockchain" and you make this response as if I am the one who needs to specify what we're talking about? Your film is about BLOCKCHAIN so talk about BLOCKCHAIN not CRYPTOCURRENCY

You're presumably over 60 and spend your days as a fucking reddit mod. For /r/buttcoin. And you blocked me after claiming that you're "prepared to talk specifics" as if you hadn't had that opportunity throughout this entire post to a hundred other comments. Clown. < There's your insult.
