You wouldn’t go lobby the state to pass a law that gives you the right to eat. You wouldn’t lobby the state to give you the right to have sex and have kids, you wouldn’t lobby the state to pass laws that give you the right to breath air. These are all assumed as not needing permission for. So my question is why are so many bitcoiners worried about lobbying the state to pass laws with regards to bitcoin. Why are we lobbying state for the right to store a number on a computer… For the right to run a series of zeros and ones on a computer. It’s absurd to do what basically amounts to asking another person to give us permission to do math?

  1. Because they are NOT bitcoiners
  2. They are fucking idiots
  3. They are gov agents

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.

Who is this "the government"?

The people with a monopoly on force where you live.

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.

reply

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...

Would Ross Ulbricht have avoided a double life sentence if he had simply realized he was not a citizen?

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

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

reply

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.

reply

That's a good question. I think most people should mind their own business.

reply

Because they're in Bitcoin to make money or for the trend, they haven't studied enough and they don't really want to study either, they're not interested in being sovereign or anything like that.

reply

We need to educate those users of bitcoin if they feel the need to start asking for permission to use bitcoin, then the bitcoin they are using becomes worthless.

One of the things is that governments tend to be skeptical and against those things that they do not know or understand. They also are heard from established lobbies that have immense power in the traditional finance space. With these two things in mind, crypto has to fight back to establish its own place.

It also breaks down to every industry has a voice in the state. So crypto should as well and if it doesn't that makes it seems illigeitment
