Bitcoin culture HAS CONTENT. It isn't just a neutral do-nothing for the world and its inhabitants. It _impacts_ us, and the rules it embodies in us have repercussions for the moral or political values we hold.
The trans fad or the open celebration of sexual differences is a faltering society’s ultimate shit-test: demanding that everyone betray their own eyes lest they be labeled a bigot. Shove obscenities in others’ faces.
Should we therefore assault people who cross-dress or send them to jail? Obviously not; just leave them alone. Should we celebrate their confusion, go out of our way to accommodate them practically and socially? Also no; just leave them alone.
We can call bullshit on what betrays sense without unfairly ostracize people with weird beliefs or behaviors. Indeed, as Bitcoiners we have _a lot_ of those.
But we don’t have to overdo compassion to the point of insanity and thereby give in to anyone’s impression of reality, however idiotic.
