The main problem is people looking at everything through a political lens, almost in a tribal way. This is specially problematic for countries with a small number of political parties, and is horrific when the positioning of those parties changes over time due to unrelated interests and due to the dogma of the day.
Bitcoin doesn't have to solve all problems of society (those will require other measures and other tools as well), it just needs to be better than the existing tool/system for most use cases or at least for some important use cases.
And I would start there... let the people know the existing system, let them realize the problems of that system/tool, and then explain how Bitcoin can improve it.
Be pragmatic and realistic, not idealistic.
