Curious about all the #BitcoinTwitter buzz recently? I went digging to find the associated twitter threads & comments to read, and then discuss my own take on all the drama.
Too long; Didn't Listen -
• Don't be a jerk.
• We aren't responsible for other people's feelings.
• If you have to choose between making someone uncomfortable & telling them what you believe to be true, speak the truth.
• Open discourse, no matter how "toxic," is preferable to back room political fighting.
• These are the consequences of freedom of speech.
The threads in question, plus one I only found after recording the episode (unfortunately) by @TheBlueMatt that's related to the discussion.
