Safety instinct is very strong. It's for the safety of the whole species that "many" will not take any risk lest the existing order go to hell altogether. A "few" will take all the risks on behalf of the whole species. Change instinct among these few is very strong. I think these two sides, along with some others on the spectrum, make the "whole" of human nature. Life is not binary. This is the way nature keeps balance.

It's the all out indoctrination engineering (propaganda, advertising, public relations, so-called culture, schools, organized religions etc) of the Establishment that the defensive safety instinct gets momentum. That is, the change instinct is also about safety but this one is offensive safety mechanism. And to counter the indoctrination engineering, we need mass education creating an awareness of freedom, but I remember "propaganda by deed" examples of the 19th century anarchists. Everybody knows action speaks louder than the words.

The electronic frontiers of #Bitcoin and #Nostr are indeed pushing the boundaries of freedom. They are the freedom living people. Freedom is their passion, innate nature. The "many" will follow them once the frontlines feels safe.
