Of course – but if that’s the world that bitcoin is going to usher in, heaven help those who don’t have the power or advocacy that bitcoin brings. Bitcoin was supposed to be about justice. Robinson is a self proclaimed racist, not a victim of the state, but a victimiser of those without power.

No he’s a victim of the state. Your worldview just thinks that’s justified because you don’t believe in free speech.
If you interpret my comment as meaning I don’t believe in free speech, then the parameters of your argument are extremely black-and-white.
Free speech is by definition a dialectic between state and the citizenry.
By your logic Hitler was victimised by the state when he was arrested in 1929.
Hitler pulled a violent coup. They aren’t at all similar.
Furthermore free speech isn’t about endorsing every view; it’s about protecting the right to speak without fear of state retaliation.
When you say “free speech is a dialectic,” you’re really just dressing up censorship as nuance.
But there’s nothing nuanced about the state deciding which views are tolerable.
That’s not a dialectic it’s control.
Tommy is best friends with Maajid Nawaz, someone who sat next to me at school. I have no doubt whatsoever that both of them are shills and that both of them work for the UK security services.
Interesting observation.
I‘ve read somewhere else that he had links.
Read between the lines - the UK 'far right' and the muslim terrorist groups are controlled by the same power
