People say "bitcoin fixes this" about a lot of things and typically I disagree. The horrors of government were quite real on the gold standard, see slavery and the Indian wars in America as examples. We need to stop thinking we've already won and understand that Bitcoin is just 1 tool that can help us if we use it correctly. By counter point if a government went full Bitcoin while people across the globe ignored it, they could amass resources to commit horrors on a whole new level never seen before. TLDR, Bitcoin is an economic weapon. Weapons don't pick sides. They help whoever uses them most effectively.

Yep. Other tools we need are better education and localism. Every piece synergizes with other pieces. Imagine a town comprised of land owners who use regenerative agriculture principles, use 3d printers and share designs, and use Bitcoin. Its actually a really low bar, but seems nearly impossible right now. The key is education. That's always the key, which is exactly why the state has purposely ruined it, filled it with gay and trans teachers and made 90% of it a total waste of time. Bad education synergizes with the state's goals : workers isolated from family and community, dumb soldiers to throw at whatever country they want to steal from, and people generally too stupid to figure out they're being lied to about almost everything. The statist left won the education piece decades ago and its done a lot for them. We have to take that piece.
