But you can't blame people for having different idea and using bitcoin as they want. Especially when it absolutely thrives on idea of permissionless transactions that guarantees people the freedom to use it as they like.

I agree, people has the right to use Bitcoin in whatever way they see fit as long as its feature allowed it.

Most bitcoin users might not have same ideology as you or view the bitcoin as satoshi originally planned bitcoin to be, but you can't control the people and bitcoin was made for people.

True that most people who engage in Bitcoin is interested in getting profit. And that is the motivating factor for investors and why they are participating in the Bitcoin industry, especially in Bitcoin economics.

And since i've been in here, there has always been a huge group of people who have only interested of profits. There are probably hundreds cliché memes about bitcoin mooning, so can you blame people coming in having different values?

Most people are profit driven. Without profit they will just ignore things. And since bitcoin gives an opportunity for profit then people who are profit driven are attracted to Bitcoin.

As long as the code doesn't change radically i don't judge what people think bitcoin is or should be or how what values they try to brand it with. It exists without our visions about it.

I agree, since Bitcoin feature is dependent on the code and so as how people use it. So as long as the development of the code does not divert from the original purpose of its creation then I don't see any problem how people tends to use it.
