Betreff: [unSYSTEM] FreedomsPhoenix: "what does the membership buy?"
Why can't people understand simple concepts?

The organisation represents the interests of its members, not the wider
community. (they state this in their minutes)

People put up so much money because they want to buy influence.

The foundation positions itself as a gatekeeper of the code. To
interface with regulators and get big money involved in Bitcoin (touted
as "mainstream adoption"), because this is what big corporations who pay
expensive memberships want.

They will oppose through propaganda and lies either through ignorance or
willful deception, attempts to remove their power over Bitcoin development.

Maybe it's too abstract, but that's the nature of power...
