If we censor ourselves, they won't censor us and Bitcoin will still be censorship resistant.
Seems shortsighted and requires a big chunk of faith. A better alternative is to elect representatives and governments that understand Bitcoin. For them to understand bitcoin a big part of the electorate needs to understand and value what Bitcoin offers. For that to happen lots of effort in education is required, not just related to bitcoin, but also freedom and fundamental human rights.
