Imagine you’re loaded and HODL heavy bags of #bitcoin and you have to sell it for dollars, pay taxes, and being compromised and targeted by govt authorities! Is this what everyone wants and preaching about?!

I only sell my bitcoin if it brings something important into my life or the lives of those I love. When I do, yes I pay taxes. Bitcoin never promised to protect you from government violence, not sure where you got that idea.
Bitcoin was about separating government and money ! Paying taxes to the govt is = feeding them and not separating!
Bitcoin is and was about creating a money that the government cannot debase, confiscate, or censor. And Bitcoin did that. It does not protect you from taxes, government violence, incarceration, imminent domain, or regulation.
If you think Bitcoin is going to save you from your government taxing you, then you are mistaken about what Bitcoin is and does. Bitcoin cannot protect you from the government kicking in your door and putting you in a cage for the rest of your life. No clue where you got the idea that it could.
Bitcoin does indeed separate government and money, taking money out of the control of government. But that does not mean the government is powerless to visit violence upon you.
