Exactly what i feel too. Bitcoin got taken over by a lot of "number go up" people who dont get that without privacy, you can not have freedom in a world where governments want to control everything.

Hiding in fear like rats under the floorboards is not freedom. Bitcoin is for dragging the regime out into the street and blasting it's head off with a shotgun so we never have to deal with it again.
Sure, is that why you are hiding behind a nym? 🤔
You don't fight toe to toe with a stronger enemy. You find asymmetric advantages. Guerilla fighters have known this forever.
Right now, privacy is very appealing. It definitely is a reason to be interested in Monero, for sure.

Privacy is what everybody needs when the government wants to control you like a jealous psychopath controls its partner. The VPN industry is a good example. 15 years ago, nobody cared about VPN. Now it is a extremely profitable multi billion dollar industry.
If you want to make a asymmetric bet now, get some Monero while everybody is circle jerking about lightning privacy while using custodial wallets.
I agree. But I'll add that most people don't need VPN. I suppose some ISPs can cause trouble if you torrent. Private crypto is a lot more viable because of tax.
