I am 3 months and 5 days younger than Saylor. One thing that bothers me with Bitcoiners is their loose language at times.

I have super thick skin --- the past few days I blasted Bitcoin Magazine and Fred on TwiX -- but I have to tell a story. It still makes me feel bad.

One time I used a word, a word I used often, and a new aquaintance's face dropped. I asked then apologized profusely.

The word?

"Retarded"

I found out, his wife, whom I had known longer, had two kids, one was named Ben (it happens to be my name too) and how he had Down (no S) Syndrome.

I then learned how hard it is for families like them with a child with Down. Brutal, they had mental health issues just raising a really difficult child.

Before you accuse me of being Woke, go watch either "Down With Love" or "Love on the Spectrum" on Netflix.

Can Bitcoiners have a little more compassion, for not just promoting NGU or using 'Retarded' or 'Regarded' thinking you are so smart and witty?

Satoshi created Bitcoin for the underserved, the under priveliged, the unbanked or underbanked.

Can you all just be a little cooler? Yeah, that is an old man term.

Further, some of you could get a lot better tips on how to treat women from the Down/Spectrum people.

Be cool.

Be a cool Bitcoiner.

Don't be a Douche Bag like Craig.

Be self aware.

Care.
