The big divide in the US is between merit and rent-seeking. For rent-seekers, toeing the ideological line is extremely important. For merit-seekers it's doing/being/creating the best. In a sense, I'm surprised this battle came so early because this battle is Bitcoin vs. Fiat in a nutshell.

Some folks can also go from building to rent seeking themselves with age - thinking of consultants and conf speakers that used to build shit and now just rent seek.

Might be some nuance and lessons in there for bitcoiners too...
