Stay in school and don't do drugs (too much).

He shouldn't be here anyways. His understanding is wrong, as expected, since he is a kid.

I don't think you can really say that I 'shouldn't be here'. I mean yes my understanding or crypto-currencies is 'wrong' but everyone has to start somewhere, right? I bet when you first started out your knowledge was basic.
I agree with this.

Learning shouldn't be equated with being denied access to a forum.

Mine was certainly basic, no doubt about it.

Even if he is a kid; doesn't this mean that Bitcoin's demographics are expanding, and we're getting those who decently matter into Bitcoin?

Exactly. I now know that it is not possible to provide a global basic income for everyone through a crypto-currency. I've learnt. I will spend a lot more time learning about crypto-currencies and doing my own research to ensure that I understand this topic properly. I heard about bitcoin through a friend and in turn I have told people about bitcoin. Awareness is spreading among ordinary people and I don't think it will be long before a crypto-currency (not necessarily bitcoin) will become widely accepted by the masses.
