 Toxicity breeds more #toxicity. It poisons discourse, erodes #trust, and drives people apart. 

A little #empathy and good faith can go a long way.

Let’s embrace the #Bitcoin ethos.

Let's elevate the conversation, not tear each other down!

 @Dan⚡️ @Eye Reply. out of the blue for the first time ever I called a scammer by @DarthCoin. i tried to prove him wrong with hard facts but got excess of toxicity. i’m still open to discuss it and maybe build a friendship with him. i cannot tell why Maxis act like that these days. i can empathize though. i was a Maxi for a decade and got trapped to an unhealthy mindset. thanks to exiledsurfer who converted me instantly, i am a crypto realist these days!! why that toxicity? does toxicity help towards bitcoin adoption?

 Hey nostr:nprofile1qqs0nt9skq6vfsgh06v979rrnuchau87mmnk2lqxpv2xaeusqfp30mqpzamhxue69uhky6t5vdhkjmn9wgh8xmmrd9skctcprfmhxue69uhkxct5wd68yu3wwdmkzundwd68ytnrdaksz9nhwden5te0v4jx2m3wdehhxarj9ekxzmny9ulaw9v2, this kid is a good guy🤷🏻‍♂️. I don't know what your beef is? 
Scammer🧐? Nope. He was as good as his word as far as the 2X #zaps thing went.
You might not agree with his methods of "Engagement" or the ethos of "Botcoin" or whatever🤷🏻‍♂️. My limited engagement with this npub has been largely positive.

 Everybody in this space is different man, as in life. We all have our own ideas, ideals and standards, maybe you didn't quite fit up to his, for whatever reason, I don't know, I wasn't party to it, but your cool🙏🏻.

 i was a toxic maxi for over 5 years. no good! i’m trying to enable Maxis to think it through. Toxicity doesn’t help these days! we need more reasons to be united!

 He is what we used to call ‘hard’ he probably started smoking cigarettes when he was 4 years old.

 I only say that as had a run in with him about a node post I made a few years back. Was all very over the top.

 Link long gone, it was a few years back on the Fediverse. I see him on here but tend to just ignore him.
