Well you have to publicly shame scammers. Scammers (such as corporations issuing shitcoins like the Ethereum foundation has issued and sold off their shitcoin) is a need. Shitcoins don't "help with adoption". Shitcoins are a deterrent to people looking at whether to take Bitcoin seriously.

That said, this article was not about that. This article was about welcoming people who think politically differently from you. Which is very different from welcoming scammers.
