That's exactly the normies' reaction when they look at us. I'm not saying that you're wrong or that the normies are right. I'm just making this observation.

Agree, but, unlike the memecoin degen, I can bring rational arguments to the table. Doesn't mean that a normie will listen to them but they still exist. I orange pilled people from many different walks of life and different prior beliefs.

Yes but the average normie won't meet you. An average normie would meet an average Bitcoiner, and that is probably why the average normie has a low opinion on Bitcoiners.
I have read and listened to punk6529, the self-described meme maximalist (I'm not sure what's his stance on memecoins, I paid attention to him only during the NFT era). He argues for his position rationally and persuasively. I disagree with him anyway (that's why I stopped paying attention) but he's way above a random degen.
By the way I believe that "gm" (the common greeting on Nostr) was originally popularized by punk6529. Check out the Temple of GM in his "Open Metaverse". That tells me that he's not too wrong in his culture building ideas, he just overestimates their importance IMO.
