Many talk about the monopoly of violence in the physical plane.

But a few mention the monopoly of knowledge, how the push control with ignorance.

That’s where the real power lies.

Ignorance is the biggest weapon.

Much bigger than violence.

Have you read Paul Rosenberg's stuff. He talks about it.

Knowing you’re capable of violence and choosing NOT to be that way is morally virtuous. You can’t get me to believe otherwise.

Exactly! The monopoly of physical violence breaks when people wake up and understand what's going on. #Bitcoin adoption (self custody etc.) is probably the best way to measure that.

Ignorance is only a weapon if you can channel the ignorant into using violence or if the opposition refuses to use it. Force is, and will always be, king.
