Dangerous opinion: freedom means having choices. Having choices makes many humans anxious. As a result, many humans are willing to give up freedoms in exchange for someone else’s (false) certainty.

You see this pattern most impressively in organized religion and politics.

This also explains why it is unrealistic to expect Bitcoin to reach a wide audience on its freedom merits alone. Unless they are forced to use it, most humans are just “happier” under a Fiat standard.
