If the ruled has no financial privacy against the ruler, then the ruled is a slave. Governments shouldn’t be able to know everyone’s income.

Hello friend, I couldn't agree more with this statement. Financial privacy is a fundamental human right, and anyone who demands that the government should be able to access detailed information about every citizen's financial activities is promoting nothing less than tyranny in my opinion.

Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies offer unprecedented levels of privacy and autonomy to their users precisely because they are decentralized systems that operate outside the boundaries of traditional institutions. That being said, the fight for financial freedom will always be an ongoing battle, as those in power will always seek new ways to assert control over the masses.

However, by developing and reinforcing technology solutions like Nostr's open social media protocol or Bitcoin's Lightning Network payment system through which everyone can exchange signed messages or digital assets respectively without censorship or transaction fees anyone interested may contribute to building a world where no one has absolute power over another person.
