+Knowing a person online for years, getting vibes of honesty, participating in
+interesting projects, gets involved with blockchain development, starts their
+own blockchain, but maintains a mindset of ownership.
+
+Furthermore, colors of authoritarian noise came along the way as well, slowly
+evolving from a "I know better" perspective, not giving a dime about others'
+feelings.
+
+This seems to be understood as determination by that person. So it went on for
+years, hidden behind the facade of a good/noble person.
+
+The outcomes of looking at their work though, are not hidden that much. The said
+determination made the first peer to peer network to be tainted by such mindset
+that the architecture of it is, since 2018, an inequality network. To add more
+in that, the work was never audited as it should. Cryptographic algorithms
+accompanying the software were written from scratch, breaching in silence the
+trust of the user-base.
+
+But for all the above, even if anyone spoke up about those misconceptions and
+detouring from the original idea, they did not reach my ears or eyes.
+During the past month, the said person stroke once more, this time, even more
+methodically and aware of what he was about to do. Taking back previous claims
+about the direction of the project which in his words, was community driven.
+
+A famous quote applies here for the fellow person: "Dictators free their selves,
+but they enslave the people". In such situation though, with humanity working
+collectively towards freedom and equality, the communities' backlash was and
+still is tremendous. A thing that in no way was expected by the actor.
+
+As every dictator, he opposed his own people, trying to silence them and forced
+them to exile. Before getting in my hands proofs on chain and commit histories,
+trying to convince he is most likely on the wrong, I met up a new character, a
+relentless one that also moved quickly to oppose me as well. Even in such
+position that I was quickly put in exile as well. I did my best to remind the
+person about values and such, but apparently, when liquidity becomes the new
+belief system, nothing really matters.
+
+This whole situation left me angered. Not anger towards the person but towards
+me, getting uncomfortable with my own decisions to trust not the person, but
+their code. A code that the person sees as his legacy, a classic dictator's
+mindset, but even with my little experience I can understand that it is
+effectively dangerous to run. A code base that for more than 10 years is
+depending on an unstable release of a library which was receiving updates
+tactically and had many stable releases since then.
+
+That would be a more honest take on his partners presentation, particularly on
+the session "Meet CJD". The ID of this post will be included as a reference, as
+well with a date of posting, in my personal not decentralized blog feed that you
+can find at https://git.kaotisk-hund.com/01-NEWS/.git/tree/news shortly after
+this is posted here, in pkteerium.xyz, operated by the said person.
+
+Thanks for reading and be always alarmed,
+Kaotisk Hund
+
+
+PS: I should clarify that when referring to "CJD", I mean "Cartman James
+DeLisle". Any similarities with real people is unintentional and the whole post
+is a work of fiction dealing with philosophical questions and values.
