When I got into #bitcoin, everyone hated the government and wanted to build around them. What I see now from a great many bitcoiners is really sad. Some of you have chosen clout and NGU over the revolution and it's kind of sickening, tbh. It is what it is, and it sucks.

Is the revolution separating money and state?
I would say that is definitely a big part of it.
Definitely acknowledge the revolution can mean different things to different people, largely shaped by your personal lot in life.
But seems to me that to separate money from state NGU is the most important metric. I wouldn't say NGU is antithetical to the revolution. I think it's kind of a necessity...
NGU any cost is not good long term. For example, having the Government go and try to get all the bitcoin would cause NGU, but it would not be a good thing.
If the government tried to buy up all the Bitcoin it would be a very good thing. I'm not selling, are you?
I would rather bitcoin be distributed amongst the people for as long as possible. I can't stop government FOMO but that doesn't mean I have to cheer it on like it is a good thing.
I have some good news for you. Most of the people salivating for the government to pump their bags don’t have very much bitcoin.
