This article makes sense, but then also shows the point why we can't do anything.
The demographic, white college educated males under 30.... The majority of people in that demographic have massive student loans, are unemployed, have shit jobs, don't own any major companies that they could accept bitcoin with, lack powerful connections, you get where i'm going with this.
Bitcoin and litecon mining, trading, etc, is really the only legal option for many of us to try and make some decent extra income or if luck has it become wealthy.
"We have continuously alienated new people by being curt or just assholes."
This happened in spades last week when I went to Litecoin forum and asked for help with my mining rig.
I all but got humiliated, mocked, and kicked in the ass as I ran out the front door while everyone was laughing.
Seriously. All because I didn't know what I was doing with my troublesome hardware setup.
Anyways, thats not the point of the article.
Big +1 on everyone reading this article.
Good find.

Its bighead syndrome. When people have a knowledge others do not they get inflated opinions of themselves and don't understand not everyone is as great as them.
