 Yeah idk, this is a false schism. Most people here are bitcoiners so it comes up. But for me, it's like I've seen all those memes, you don't have to convince me.

So just don't follow those people.

It would be nice however to turn off boosts. That is a Twitter feature I miss (disabling retweets). 
 Yeah probably. Also yeah, I'm not sure there are many people to convince here.

I think you can turn off boosts somewhere. I forget. Nostrudel maybe? Coracle just doesn't show them at all (no option to turn off/on) 
 Maybe amethyst doesn't? 

Yeah I went to a libertarian meeting once and it was everyone trying to say they dislike the government as if they were trying to convince their wives.

It's was like dude, I'm here because yes I agree, now what next.

So I haven't been back. 
 Amethyst shows boosts. And you can't turn that off (afaik). If that's what you mean. 
 There's nothing normies love more than a circle jerk. 
 I just prefer they are advertised as such. Nothing worse than stumbling into one unaware 🤣
