There’s a very progressive notion in the world of nonprofits (my fiat day-job) that you give people money and they will do with it what they need (similar philosophy to UBI, if you can not get too distracted by the “who pays for it” question, which is valid)

You talk to these same “progressive” people about #Bitcoin, and my thought that people equipped with Bitcoin and education will live a wonderful and financially sovereign life, and they lose there minds.

We’re very early folks.

To be fair it's not just progressive people, it's everyone in a sense. The root cause is that people like to moralize what others choose to do with their money. Sometimes this is justified of course when how one chooses to use their money actively harms or exploits others - which is likely what is seen with Bitcoin for the aforementioned group of people. Keep fighting the good fight to educate these people on Bitcoin's benefits!
