It's really heartening to see some of the environmentalist-focused bitcoiners, generally some of the left-leaning ones, always taking the time to counter FUD put out by the NYT, Greenpeace, etc.
The pushback is generally more powerful when it comes from the same side of the political spectrum.
Throughout the 2020s as cold wars or kinetic wars are present, and as energy shortages come and go, having a foothold across the political spectrum is a useful form of defense to reduce the probabilities or to delay the timeframes of sweeping government attacks against bitcoin from the US, Europe, etc.
Neither side of the political spectrum is a monolith. Building cultures of anti-censorship on both sides is useful to push back on those from either side who always want to tighten the grip, to chip away at privacy, and to wall off the garden for information and finance.
