But in your third point (and maybe your second?) you seem to be defending the idea that even if SBF wilfully misused funds, then that’s still ok. It was a bad bet, but we should celebrate people who take risky, but positive EV, gambles, even if they strongly violate ethical norms. Is that a fair summary of what you believe, or am I misreading/misunderstanding? If it is, I think this post is very bad and it seems very worrying that it’s currently got +ve karma.
