 Exactly. That is why I say bitcoin alone is not enough, and that is why "Q" invented bitcoin and not vice versa. That is why bitcoin is moving ahead in El Salvador, and that is why Bukele, despite being nowhere near as powerful as such as Gaddafi or Saddam Hussein Abd al-Majid al-Tikriti, is still walking this earth and setting a "bad" example of success in the fiat world. 
 Also, we do not want our normie friends, who are:
- socialist lovers and fascists
- weak 
- believe their jobs of counting their own money while consuming products of lower grade foreigners are useful and necessary
- believe that those who produce real things deserve to work more and get paid less
We do not want these people to end up owning more bitcoin than those who see the world clearer and actually produce something usable. Money is power. So if we want anything to change, we need different people to get the power.
Those who do not know ways to get bitcoin without paying taxes to their banks and states, fo not deserve to get more bitcoin.
