Oh man, BVM, thank you! I really enjoyed this one. Gotta give a big thanks to the other Andrew Bailey (the philosopher/Bitcoiner) for suggesting this one.
You know what? I had kind of a mental “sea change” listening to a Jeff Booth podcast about three months ago. Can’t remember which one (there are so many!). In it he was talking about the kind of engagement Bitcoiners have with legacy finance people and he was explaining that bitterness and vitriol is kind of an irrelevant response because they either just ignore Bitcoiners or dig in harder in their prejudices against us.
So since then I’ve been *trying* (not always succeeding) to be less caustic and more “bemused” in the tone in my letters. I also tried it with the letter to the New York Times that I wrote in May. I actually *feel* better in my heart (not so angsty) afterwards.
