I always see this line of reasoning online from hype consumers. The eternal victim complex. Its not fair that negative articles are being written about this humble startup/video-game merchant/crypto exchange - must be a coordinated hit piece!

And then it devolves into worshipping the founder/priest/oracle. Usually by making claims of their supposed genius and foresight. Blah so boring. You can see it all on display in this comment. Emad the genius, yet he lies about trivial things. Yeah who cares that he lied about his master's degree? I mean I agree, who gives a shit about a master's degree. But then why feel the need to lie about it? You don't think that reflects on his character?
