Who said it goes against my principles? If the signature campaign advocated that blacks or homosexuals should be killed just because they are blacks or homosexuals, I would not have joined it.

The signature campaign I represent I understand has a moot point about blacklisting.

But what I see is that there is a global trend in the world towards greater government control of Bitcoin, via KYC/AML, blacklisting and other measures.

Would the world be better off with purely P2P transactions as Satoshi devised? Surely, but the price would not have gone over $1k. I highly doubt it would have gone over $100. Just seeing that Coinbase is on this list:

[Blacklist] of unreliable, 'taint proclaiming' Bitcoin services / exchanges

Without Coinbase and traitorous institutions like it, the price would be much lower.

You can't have your cake and eat it too.

Maybe I'm wrong, but I see a future with Bitcoin much more controlled by governments, where there is a reduced space for privacy or P2P transactions, but governments were not going to let what has reached 1T market cap, 2T if we count shitcoins, to remain uncontrolled.
