Why is not wanting to waste electricity on Ponzi schemes so triggering?

They're emotionally invested in cryptocurrency being the future. When people challenge them by suggesting that it's basically bad all the way down, they lash out.

It is a really low form of argument to simply use the word "triggering". Implying that the original poster doesn't have any real reasoning behind what they are writing, no original thoughts or responsible viewpoints that they have worked on - instead that they are "triggered", - thus are reacting in a simply emotional way. Implying that somehow all of their argument can be simply discarded.

Really? You mean that just because you have used the word "triggering" (there are no other meaningful arguments in your comment), that would somehow invalidate an argument? What grade is that logic from?
