Talking about tax legitimizes it.

I dream of a world where bitcoiners stop this trend they are on where they keep legitimizing the concept of tax by talking about it like it's something we need to think about.

If Bitcoin works, then at some point **you will be required by law to hand it over to the State**.

If you're someone who's *already* concerned about what type of Bitcoin transaction constitutes a "taxable event", then what are you going to do when self custody is totally illegal? That's right, you'll be handing over your coins faster than you can boil asparagus.

There is no technical solution for a desire to comply. Bitcoin helps those who help themselves, it will never free those who don't value freedom.
