Perhaps the thing that triggers and confuses noncoining Statists the most is when you’re describing instead of prescribing. All they’ve ever known is authoritarianism, so they assume that you’re pitching (political policy) prescriptions in an attempt to get others to delegate their agency to your authority. But what we’re actually doing is *describing* how free markets are superior, how Bitcoin enables those markets, and how freedom tech empowers the individual, such that they no longer have no choice but to delegate their agency to the State.

It’s a paradigm shift that often needs to be explained directly to them, just like in this note.
