if you as an individual have an enemy, you must let him use bitcoin to attack you ‘cause it’s freedom. But if “bitcoin” has an enemy - you must comply and act in such a way that protects the common Bitcoin good.
It's a nit, but incentives don't impart musts and shoulds. They impart biases toward acting a certain way.
If you value bitcoin for its censorship resistance, then you will tend to remove (or encourage removal of) censorship potential from bitcoin, including the potential for you to censor bitcoin which only incidentally allows your enemies to use it. This will also tend to protect bitcoin from its enemies as they have nowhere to easily attack, and it isn't money to them, bitcoin's enemies, because rational people tend to not value things they are willing to attack.
