Hi dreamer,
I am not sure you quite understand the exercise if you think the aim is to discover the truth. The aim is to ridicule, and ridicule can be done in broad strokes well enough. Wave and its investors are the object of the derision.
The joy of it all is won amongst those whose lives revolve around the profound delight that cackling achieves. It makes a wise pilgrim feel a very satisfying sense of superiority to be able to laugh at folks. And the funniest thing of all is the notion that any kind of attempt is made by Wave's investors to justify its attempt to build a business. What idiots. Ha ha ha!
If the ridicule also achieves some level of disruption of the conversation, then the joy is magnified further, of course. A thoughtful critique established with the intent of discovering the truth would be a mighty extravagance. It is an economy simply to touch the skin of the conversation with frequency and not to bother to scratch its surface. A poor argument will do as well as a good one.
barge, no doubt, begins to understand snackman at last. Freedom demands a thoughtful kind of regulation. The fabric of a conversation cannot withstand those whose primary intent is to destroy it and who themselves care so little for such a virtue as the integrity of their opinion. But of course, this cannot be said and indeed a post which authors such a heresy cannot abide the light for long. In the presence of a cancer, the body simply withers away. But in the end, the malignancy also dies with its host.
