    It’s called healthy skepticism and it saves lives. By preparing for all worst case outcomes we can help prevent them all.

      It’s called healthy skepticism

      Skepticism is healthy when you’re actually making a decision and you decide you need more information.

      By preparing for all worst case outcomes

      Are you actually making any preparations or are you just throwing out cynical assertions based on bad vibes?

        If I had to make a decisions in this exact circumstance I sure as fuck wouldn’t write Natron a blank check for the state treasury. Yeah, I’m saying I want more information before I endorse this.

      So doomerism it is then…

      Immediately assuming that every potentially good thing that happens is actually fraud, without evidence, is just paranoia.

      Saying that it is a fraud publicly, without evidence, is just disinformation.

      Believing things without evidence isn’t “healthy skepticism”, it’s just credulity. Don’t be a rube.
