Maybe even more because now you think you’re right about way more things where normies would actually be humble enough to admit they don’t know and don‘t care.
Maybe. Ought to be, anyway. Not sure that's always what I find.
Next topic: if so -- Bitcoiners just as awful on other topics, falling prey to same human flaws etc etc (+ @Scoresby's agreement below), why is it that Bitcoiners naturally get along so well? Even if they're wacky af and into flat earth or chemtrails, I connect with them in a deeper, non-Bitcoiner level than I do any of my normie friends, say here in my village.
First level explanation: at least Bitcoiners' minds are oriented in the right way, whereas most normies' aren't, spending their cognitive efforts on NYT headlines or deep down woketard land

Because we're retarded in the same ways that are important to us?
My assumption is other retarded people also connect in a deeper, non-Bitcoiner level with each other. It has nothing to do with Bitcoin.

That's one of the flaws I mean. There is not just one class of "normies." There are many. Calling someone a "normie" is just another thing Bitcoiners do to simplify the world enough that it fits in their head.
There are a tons of different people out there who would or wouldn't get along with each other, even if we would call them all "normies."

Yes. It takes a deeper interaction before the tyranny of small differences sets in. Bitcoiners mos def do not get along if you wait long enough, as the recent OP_RETURN thing amply demonstrates. Many such examples.

Good point!
For some reason, I am very good at not identifying with anything1, so I guess I'm in a perpetual state of the tyranny of small differences?
I like to think this comes from an adversarial mindset

woketards find themselves, too, and instantly get along even though they otherwise don't share anything in life...?

Tribalism, yeah? We're on the same team. We have the same enemies. Makes it easier to ignore each others' retardation.

Yes, the tribalism of Libertarians is as amusing as it is ironic.
