As someone who has been around since early '15 (and around seriously since May 2020), I've been a part of my fair share of variable crypto communities--some wonderful, many the opposite of wonderful. I totally understand the fact that there's always been a Libertarian streak running through the middle of the community at large--being that crypto as a whole started as a Cypherpunk / Libertarian-adjacent resource--but for the life of me I cannot ever wrap my head around why anytime I try to venture any deeper than surface level into any inter-community groups, I inevitably find like 80% of the membership thereof to be made up entirely of far-right, conservative, often extremely racist, misogynistic, transphobic, xenophobic, bigoted, waterheaded mouth breathers?!

I CONSTANTLY feel like the outlier / weirdo for being a leftist (aka decent human being) who likes the tech behind crypto... I wish I could find more like-minded crypto enthusiasts (preferably not full on memecoin degens lmao) who shared my common values, but at this point I'm convinced it's next to impossible.

Do any of you happen to know any decent groups made up of even just non-conservative or non-MAGA nutjobs, within the space at hand? Any info would be much appreciated. Alternatively, what do yall think abt the idea of me creating a leftist leaning crypto community from the ground up? Just a thought.

Anyway, sorry if I offended anyone with the above. I'm a little frustrated if ya couldn't tell lol. Thanks again, in advance. Hope to hear from a lot of you.

I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas / holiday season!! Stay safe out there!! 🤙
