Fascinatingly cryptic comment. My best guesses don’t map to anything intelligible. Connecticut natives? Left curve of the what exactly?

CT = Crypto Twitter, and it's referencing the midwit meme [1] [2].

Not sure if you are being sarcastic but I will post my guesses:

ct => crypto traders

left and right => each person political leaning tendency

Think it's left/right of the bell curve (as in the meme), i.e. dumb money (retail) vs. smart money (industry).
That does make sense, but I’m oddly reluctant to give up on the mental image of a Connecticut locker room where crypto investment preferences are revealed by the individual curve direction.
