It's asymmetrical.

You can feel smug and vindicated for being treated unfairly in the past, I won't take that away from you, it sucks that it happens.

But the amount of airtime paid for by people saying "be careful" or even a nuanced "I like bitcoin long-term but be careful with some of these risky new schemes" was basically zero compared to the amount of resources relatively rich people spent trying to convince suckers to make them even richer by buying into their bullshit.

I say, don't blame the victim without trying to fix that as well. Why do we shrug when millions are spent to try to outright lie?
