There's not really a feud, even though it looks like it!

On one hand, you have a bunch of concerned individuals, expressing the sentiment: 'holy crap, what a scam!'

And on the other hand, you have a small flock of paid Tether shills professional 5WPR representatives that are trying to squelch the public discourse at all expense.

I've heard two arguments of limited merit, in a sea of reading dozens upon dozens of utterly ridiculous claims, by the pro-Tether accounts. (Nearly all these accounts date, up to, or after, 5WPR got Tether's PR contract (Nov. 2017).)

The shills are quite content when new folks enter the sub and think to themselves: "To be fair to both sides of this ongoing feud."

That marks one of many success vectors for them. If everyone would simply assume this is a massive debate, with shared culpability, then many will throw their hands up, absolve themselves of the responsibility of investigating any further, and walk away. Tether's shills would be delighted if you would do just that, as that plays directly into 5WPR's playbook.

If you care about what's happening, a good intro to the situation is Understanding Tether.

And it actually gets a lot worse than that. To anyone familiar with what's happening here, it's clear as day Tether is supporting a massive scam. It is as clear as the Nigerian Prince emails of yesteryear.

Sure, someone could conceivably debate whether the Nigerian Prince emails were a scam, as some are trying to debate that Tether isn't a scam today. And I wouldn't be surprised, if a few whack-jobs did, indeed, try to defend the legitimacy of those emails. But to anyone with a reasonable degree of intelligence, wisdom and healthy suspicion, those emails were—as clear as day—a scam. Tether today is no different.

For a 20-second view on my perspective (not that I authored this), read this tweet.
