Fair enough. I agree with both points.
It would be nice if Primal gave its users the option to send zaps from a wallet they liked instead of forcing their wallet on users

Legal tender laws are bad and have to go.
I don't want Bitcoin or anything at all to be legal tender in India. Not even Rupees.
The Government has no business forcing its people to use a particular currency. It can ask its people to pay for its services in a particular currency and that's about it.

What matters to me is whether or not they do the job of the media as the fourth pillar in a democratic republic effectively and keep those in power accountable. I've found them to be lacking in that regard.

This man is probably one of the biggest critics of Modi in India. He is a long-time member of the party Modi is in. Former Upper house MP and cabinet minister, academic, econ Ph.d at Harvard.
What Bitcoiners would be interested in is that he believes income tax in India should be reduced to zero.

I don't think this happens without us doing something about it. Every note, article, tweet, post and conversation online and offline matters.

Regular reminder that the voice of dissent against the Government very much exists in India.
It is merely channeled in the wrong direction towards some or the other form Socialism which ends up subtly giving more power to the Government.
Therein lies the failure of the country's intellectual elite since we attained independence in 1947. We are all collectively failing the country's future generations by being utterly dumb and clueless about the economic evils of socialism.
I personally take full responsibility for being dumb and clueless till sometime in the first half of 2024. I need to do better.
