It's scary how governments have society so wrapped around its fingers that they can convince the masses to turn on the people trying to expose the truth of what is going on behind closed doors. Trying to paint whistleblowers like Snowden and Assange as villains or traitors, while the architects of surveillance states and endless wars are hailed as protectors of freedom. Among many other reasons, this is why Bitcoin is so important. It offers a decentralized escape from centralized control, a financial lifeline free from manipulation. This is also why adoption will seem slow, even though we know it's really not. So many are puppets to the game that they can't even realize the Bitcoin safety boat will get them off the sinking ship of fiat dependency and authoritarian overreach, where trust in corruptible systems is blindly maintained. Happy birthday to a real 1!
