 You’re right, that was not a constructive comment. It was rather mean and nasty. Here is a constructive comment. No one should be taking any health or diet advice from Marty Bent, or any bitcoiner for that matter, unless that happens to also be their day job. I’ll take my advice from people that look and perform the way I want (reputable athletes and coaches I trust)) or doctors that know the health implications. Don’t get your advice from conspiracy theorists. 
 Wow, doubling down on insults and derision in all directions.

Dude, why do you follow Marty if you think so poorly of him? It makes you come across as kind of a loser. 
 Oh no, Marty is great on certain topics, which is why I follow him. I generally like his takes on bitcoin related topics a lot. Just because he’s great on certain things and I like him on those topics doesn’t mean that he is immune or undeserving of critique or comment on other topics. I also love Saifedean Ammous for his bitcoin takes, but think his opinions on art and health are bad. People aren’t black and white. But I can see why you think I come across as a loser, we are all entitled to have bad opinions.
