It is very difficult to have an objective and meaningful conversation with someone who considers their audience to be simpletons and fools right from the gate. Add in condescending references to the masses as 'normies' et al or those with conflicting opinions labeled as 'hypebeasts'.

If we are the enlightened, why don't we come down from our enlightened pedestals and assist our fellow man in lieu of brow beating them from some assumed level of superiority or high ground? If I were one of the supposed 'normies' and you were trying to convince of privacy, security, and anonymity with the tone you arrived here a few days ago with, I'd probably tell you to piss right off. We're all here to learn and help learn, and take that knowledge and teach others around us how to use their technology in the most safe, secure, and private manner possible.

Condescending attitudes and tones don't do much to further the cause.
