Vitalik QA ... 35:40 What advice would he give to Satoshi if he had a time-machine https://www.facebook.com/UnchainedPodcast/videos/2161275497495792/

Seems like he, like a lot of people, is way too good at repressing. In the video he explains the direction for Bitcoin laid out by Satoshi, indicates that he does not agree with; acts like no direction was laid out - wut?

Most of the anarchists seem to be repressing the reality of how law applies to crypto. It is very clear that all coins are by default securities & only the ones with specific properties fall into exceptions and are currency/commodity. I mean there are direct quotes on video from the SEC boss.

Repression is a key concept of psychoanalysis, where it is understood as a defence mechanism that "ensures that what is unacceptable to the conscious mind, and would if recalled arouse anxiety, is prevented from entering into it."

A psychotherapist may try to ameliorate this behavior by revealing and re-introducing the repressed aspects of the patient's mental processes to their conscious awareness - 'assuming the role of mediator and peacemaker ... to lift the repression'. In favourable circumstances, 'Repression is replaced by a condemning judgement carried out along the best lines', thereby reducing anxiety over the impulses involved.
