I love this.

The problem is far too many bitcoiners who are U.S. based libertarian or right leaning, especially on twitter, do not engage in good faith with folks who don’t align with their politics and worldview. It’s typically condescension or from an angle of “I have The Truth, and I will tell you why you’re wrong.”

Imo there’s still too much baseline assumption of right/libertarian leaning views in the U.S. bitcoin community in terms of context, but too many don’t see this because it’s like telling a fish they’re breathing in water. Bitcoin doesn’t have a default political or worldview, and bitcoin is not “inherently” U.S. libertarian.

And I’m saying this because many just won’t admit it. I’m a bitcoiner, love bitcoin, the Bitcoin community, and what we’re all building together for a better world. nostr:note13fdlwq5sttdrhv0yw5fev0mlt38w55hae6f6xqtafvt4jjw6tffq04jhrc
