“You got your Green Card under the Biden administration, so stop doing this Bitcoin s*it. It’s for Trump supporters. You’re forgetting where you came from.” Those words stung me during the recent election. An attack – boxing my immigrant identity into a political corner I didn’t choose.
In my own personal experience at Georgetown University, professors and fellow students scoffed when I spoke of Bitcoin. Some were quick to label me a Trump supporter and called an immigrant racist, dismissing my voice and my argument. Their speeches often cite diversity, equity, and inclusion, acting morally and intellectually superior as if they are the only centralized source of truth.
I wonder why the author still considers himself progressive. The typical progressive just seems like a horrible narrow-minded person.
