We need to make the tools of freedom as insidious/covert as the tools of oppression.

We need to make converting to the Bitcoin Standard as simple as possible.

Don't use their money via banking/cc
Don't use their money via cash

That last line. Damn that hits hard.
It’s not just that people are busy. That’s true, but many people are just adult children who want someone to take care of them. They don’t want responsibility.
You can see it in the political fights. It’s not right vs left. It’s personal independence vs dependence. It’s probably the 80-20 rule and not matter how easy the independence tools are, only a minority of people will use them.
That’s why I’m hopeful about tools like Fedimint. Give people the dependence they crave while supporting independence for us all.
