well, I don't know you. I wasn't there. But as you tell the story, the biggest part of the picture is yep you judge people by their appearances. If you think in the bunch of well shaved, perfumed and dressed in a suit men there are not unpolite ones, all of them has a good will in their hearts, or those well dressed and good smelly guys don't do drugs or not make business with it.
Hell yeah you are judging people by their appearance you are aware of it and don't even try to be some how objective.

Do you think in the traditional financial and economic fiat business there is not retards like that?? I'm sure you don't have any problem on havng your money in the bank, using their money and products like credit cards, deposits with interests, loans and long etc...

I'm defending that of a 1000 of silk roads, or the anarchist libertarian speech as you call it I agree that is not the place to make that propaganda, but i wouldn't be the place for other kind of politic speeches.

But if you think that affects you and because of that conference and being a bitcoiner you are going to be seen as a dirty bad smelly hippie drug addict. I'm gonna tell you something, don't use fiat because those hippies use that money too!!

I've received a lot of support and agreement on the article... One of the event sponsors even said the london bitcoin culture was far more "grimy and underground" than in the US. I do judge people based on their appearance (everyone does) and I definitely judge people based on their attitudes, and I have to admit on both counts I was not impressed. My experience of the event was that a certain spectrum (not all, probably about 1/3rd to half) of the attendees fit what I described. Example, I said "Excuse me, can I squeeze past" - the response I received? "No, I'm standing here"... Shocked
