I agree. But normies will use it anyway. And nobody can stop tether from using the bitcoin/lightning networks. I'm not saying that we should applaud them; just that we cannot stop them.
If usdt is going to be used no matter what, I'd much rather have that value being transmitted over the bitcoin/lightning network, than over fiat or shitcoin networks. The same way normies use HTTP and TCP/IP everyday, yet they have no clue what that is.

Maybe we are supposed to "succeed" in a different way. I wouldn't say that internet has "failed", even though the original cypherpunk ideals haven't been realized.
I know it's a difficult pill to swallow, but please don't blame the messenger.

Messenger safe.
The sly roundabout way was the goal. Go around them. Not join them.
We succeed when we don't use their system. Touch fiat as needed. Don't desire it.
Statistics aren't favorable. 98% of the globe has Bitcoin. But, they want fiat. Not bitcoin. Let that settle in...
If you have your keys, you are sovereign. Use your bitcoin. Can't save everyone.
