I like to imagine that kind of derision of people who have an obvious passion for bitcoin will diminish as ngu. even then though, they still won't get that it's not about ngu (though ngu doesn't make me sad, ngl). 

it's almost like crabs in a bucket... and you're the crab just talking about escape. they can't see it and don't want to acknowledge it's even possible because doing so would bring their whole worldview into question.  

 It’s definitely linked with how open minded one is. I love to listen to or read the opinions of others however crazy they might be. I might dismiss some but I also like to research others. I’ve learnt so much by taking this approach. It’s actually the essences of science research too which sadly has become so distorted due to power, greed and MSM bias in recent times.
