just because you think you fall in line today,
Censorship, the Political Pendulum, and Why EVERYONE Need Bitcoin - Adam O'Brien (Bitcoin Talk on THE Bitcoin Podcast)
"Everyone just gets gravity. Everyone gets the protocol and we all live within that. And that's a rule without rulers. And I think Bitcoin is like gravity where it's just everyone gets free and open source money. Everyone gets programmable money, programmed and designed to maintain its purchasing power. And that's a rule."

Conversation highlights
A quick read from the 21,658-word episode transcript.
1 just because you think you fall in line today, 2 and just because you agree with the regime today, 3 the regime is going to change.

11 And that's again why I love Bitcoiners, 12 because we believe in rules without rulers.
