extreme obnoxiousness seems to go with real estate, at least on the bullish side. i recall smugness certainty, and condescension from real estate cheerleaders, no w ay tor ationally discuss issues. it seems much more obnoxious to be an in-your-face, watch out for the next 40% chunk, real estate bear. each side is kind of irritating in its own way. the bull seems less mean-spirited because supposedly all he wants is for everyone to become rich, to bring others into the ponzi scheme, and to enlighten others about the easy way to make money. the cheerleading bear, on the other hand, is trying to potentially profit off of others mistakes and misery, to bring down the value of the whole system, to basically make us all “poorer”. but really, the bull is just as much trying to profit off of other’s misery and mistakes.

Good point, but I think the bears have a lot more reason to be skeptical. Some of them might be misguided,or end up wrong in any case, but they can’t generally be accused of having blatant self-interest at heart. They won’t suffer much from being wrong because they will just say “I would have been right if this or that didn’t happen”.
The main problem I see possibly coming for some super bears is that they could come to find that they have deluded themselves into thinking they would be able to buy a lot more than reality allows for.
