I share his opinions. Many of us came to Bitcoin because we'd reached the same conclusions long before Bitcoin came along.

The best thing about Bitcoin is that unlike the "devil you know", the politics and beliefs of the miners and users of Bitcoin don't matter. If the Federal Reserve becomes aware of your existence and it doesn't like your opinions or the color of your shirt, it will do what it can to take away your ability to use their moldy green paper with extreme prejudice.

If you have a bitcoin, the network doesn't care who or what you are or what you do in this world. Every human being alive, from pondscum banksters to your virgin younger cousin, has the right and the power to use Bitcoin as they see fit or to not use it at all. You can't say that about the moldy green paper signed by the devils you know.
