One of the laziest attacks on Bitcoin is that “It’s a cult.” Like that’s supposed to be some mic drop argument.
"Oh I was curious about Bitcoin… but the community just seems so cultish"
Really? We’ve got a global, neutral, censorship resistant monetary system. Absolute digital scarcity. A fixed monetary policy immune to manipulation. No central authority. A legit shot at dismantling a 300 trillion something dollar debt-fueled usury machine that funds poverty, wars, and genocides
But sure, let’s dismiss it because the vibes are "cultish".
Grow up. Stop treating serious ideas like a high school popularity contest. Yes, Bitcoiners are passionate. Even zealous. You kind of have to be when you're fighting an entrenched parasitic system that’s bled the world dry for over a century. Deal with it.
You want to criticize Bitcoin? Cool. First, learn how it works. Study the tech. Read the whitepaper. Study economics, not just the empericist Keynesian/Samuelsonian stuff. Study money! Actually do the proof of work.
Otherwise? Sit this one out brother.
