Because they don't want to risk going to prison due to the government misunderstanding bitcoin?

You wouldn’t go lobby the state to pass a law that gives you the right to eat.

They would if governments forbid eating. Yes, they'd be eating while it's forbidden anyway, secretly, but they don't want to fear prison while eating.

Thanks for this image, I'll use it a lot. It's something I always say, there's no such thing as "The Government. The goverment doesn't think, it's not an entity, it's simply a word. What does exist is a bunch of people that come together and declare themselves as rulers, but at the end of the day it's still just a bunch of people

That is just a dangerous superstition. Governments does not exist in real life, only in people beliefs.

Ask yourself this: who give a government the authority to do such atrocities over you, the simple individual? YOU! So stop giving them that consent. Authority comes from YOU, from your consent.

Darth, I understand what you're saying, but this superstition puts people in prison everyday whether it's a superstition or not.

All end up to this simple question (that is the essence of natural law):

No is not. They go to prison exactly because of their ignorance and fear. Stop living in fear and start studying about this stuff. I am very serious about this. I posted on SN several material about how to rebut ANY authority, bur yeah people nowadays are scared shit, but they like to complain.

I have news for you: stop complaining, you do not have that right to complain when you give away all your rights by being a slave citizen.

THE ONLY WAY PEOPLE WILL GET FREEDOM IS TO LEARN HOW TO BE A SOVEREIGN INDIVIDUAL. Until then... whatever they will do is meaningless and for nothing, they will continue being slaves. And no, Bitcoin will not fix this, Bitcoin is just a part of your sovereignty. If you continue being a slave citizen, you will never get out of fiat slavery, no matter how much bitcoin you have.

I know, people tend to ignore my advice, but they can never ignore the consequences of my advice...

If a “govt” was dumb enough to ban eating not only would people keep eating but also at the same time they should realize that that “power” is so corrupt and ignorant to the good of individuals that any lobbying would be pointless. Same logic can apply to math and bitcoin.
