RE: My Response To John Oliver's Attack On EOS & His Hypocrisy. Plus A Comment on Misrepresentation of Reality By TV Shows.
It's just entertainment, and we need to be aware that his show is going to have a bias to it. He may be right that it is completely overvalued. He may be wrong though as well. Many people, myself included, thought Bitcoin would never be worth as much as it is today and he just has that mentality. I can't knock him for that. I do think there is more backing EOS than what was presented in the show, and based on the success of Steemit and Bitshares, EOS could be big.
Do not be fooles by his nerdy charm and learned Oxford accent. He is a contract hitman for any with enough money and influence. He is no different from a contract killer.
Manipulation of the kind that can be said to be here is pretty much always found with plausible deniability, making it difficult to prove whether the cause is ignorance or something more malicious. However, it is fair to say that being responsible for writing such a big show means also being responsible enough to remove such bias and ignorance from the script to prevent the 'star' appearing ignorant or malicious. By leaving in the huge bias and gap of logic in the script, the result is an appearance of embodying exactly the forms of maliciousness/ignorance that the script claims to be pointing to in others. At the very least this is hugely hypocritical. This is my main point here. I am past the point of writing off such things as 'just entertainment' - I've seen too much already! ;)
