Mods of /r/ethtrader are THE BEST I've seen on reddit! But can we talk about the scienceguy ban?

Here's the thing. You said a "TA is a crock of shit."

Is it in the same family? Yes. No one's arguing that.

As someone who is a scientist who studies analyses, I am telling you, specifically, in science, no one calls TA a crock of shit. If you want to be "specific" like you said, then you shouldn't either. They're not the same thing.

If you're saying "bullshit family" you're referring to the taxonomic grouping of Shittae, which includes things from horiscopes to psychics to crystal ball readers.

So your reasoning for calling TA a crock of shit is because random people "say it has history?" Let's get witch burning and genital mutilation in there, then, too.

Also, calling someone a liar or a manipulator? It's not one or the other, that's not how taxonomy works. They're both. A manipulator is a manipulator and a member of the liar family. But that's not what you said. You said a liar is a manipulator, which is not true unless you're okay with calling all members of the liar family manipulators, which means you'd call psychics, crystal ball readers, and other liars manipulators, too. Which you said you don't.

It's okay to just admit you're wrong, you know?
