I believe I orange pilled a new friend tonight. When he asked me to explain Bitcoin, the first question I asked him if he was a Republican or Democrat. Depending on his answer to this question was how I planned on framing my responses to his question. While Bitcoin is not political, humans can be.

If he was a Republican: I'd frame explaining Bitcoin around inflation, taxes, separation of money and state, and digital scarcity.

If he was a Democrat: I'd frame my responses around financial inclusion and hope for billions around the world while touching on building a better society with a better monetary system.

If he said neither: Then it's a mixture of both.
