That's a pretty funny statement given that the "mission" of the crypto world is an explicitly political one, overlapping significantly with extreme libertarian and anarchocapitalist movements.
An ancap idea would be to create a private bank which creates a currency and back it with real goods.
Anyway crypto would be at best a technical solution to a political problem (government existing) and you'll never fix a political problem with technology alone.

The third tweet in the thread literally says: "Quit and find a company to work at that you believe in!"
Do you know what "click bait" means?
Yellow journalism at it’s finest.
That doesn't make the title click bait.
>Yellow journalism at it’s finest.
Yes, we should only use unbiased sources, like the words of the CEO who oversaw an 80% drop in share price and whom the employees are trying to oust, who starts his thread with "This is dumb".
>That doesn't make the title click bait.
It does. Sensationalism and misleading headlines designed to drive an emotional response are considered click bait too.
I went through something similar at a much more ethical company where the CEO absorbed public criticism and addressed by hosting all-hands and taking direct, unfiltered questions from employees and never said shit in public. People who were really being unreasonable got fired, several key people who sympathized with the dissenters quit as is their prerogative at any point. The ones who stayed really wanted the company to succeed and leadership very well knew it and respected it. Armstrong is very clearly saying "This is my company, not yours" which is technically true, but anathema to millenial ethics and I'd argue anathema to the founding principals of crypto.
Mind you, this is all happening at a company that produces actual value as a top priority and isn't a just a platform to extract rents from suckers.
