CypherPUNKs is an offshoot of the cyberpunk paradigm, which can be
stated as "high tech/lowlife". There are no claims of professionalism
as far as I know. If cypherpunks share a common attribute, it is
probably their enjoyment of the _practice_ of encryption and related
disciplines.
I did not notice anyone insult you personally. Surely if you find the
language offensive, the solution is to filter your mail, or else
unsubscribe.
