Fucking hell, please keep posting. Couldn't agree more.
It's sad that I've had to shed the fiction that bitcoiners are any smarter, more principled, more truth-seeking than anybody. I wanted to believe that, but they manifestly do not, as a group, live up to those ideals, and evidence is everywhere. But maybe almost no group really does, when viewed as a group. And you can't deny that there certainly are some who are supremely awesome in all the ways you'd hope.
I think SN is a nice crucible. There is so much interesting btc-related discussion just waiting to be had, where thoughtful people could try to get smarter and understand the world better. Btc touches so many things, the opportunity is so high! I'm optimistic that we'll get there.
