Yeah I read the post - you're not answering the question though. What freedom do you lack if your transactions are public?
As soon as someone known your single-sig public key, privacy is kinda toast, isn't it?

No. Read up on coinjoin. Search for some articles on bitcoin privacy.

I'm aware of things like this - so the assertion is that bitcoin can only be successful w/ mixers?

I think we need to drop the idea that freedom is a boolean. It is a sliding scale and privacy is linked to this. Same goes for money. Same goes for privacy, and even success. Unless you are defining what these terms mean with very specific language we will just waste everyone's time.

I'm not the one making any assertions here, I'm asking questions and trying to figure out what the actual claim is, because bitcoin is not inherently private.

Coinjoin is different from a mixer. No I don't think that is the assertion.
