Now the reality is that all speech has that affiliation-building aspect and the argument-building aspect, but the scale of each varies a _lot_.
This thread itself is doing both! I'm making some concrete persuasive points here, but I'm also setting up an affiliation here. I want more people to join this "thinking well about the world" club and conversation. I want us to end up collectively in a better place than we're at. We gotta band together to do that. But also that means we need to communicate like we're in public and talking to people who don't all agree, and some of whom are hostile, and some of whom are real boneheads for various reasons.

One room at the conference center is dedicated to an art gallery, showing pictures and images inspired by satoshi and bitcoin. Some are impressive and colourful, but some I find myself ideology opposed to their point of view.
Bitcoiners as a group tend libertarian and capitalist. Is there common cause between them and me, a more anarchist and socialist tending individual?
I think we can agree that the government money system is broken, disagree about the aims of a replacement system, and disagree on the actual effects of a bitcoin based system.
Some say bitcoin is money for enemies. We do need to transact with people without having to agree with them.
