I think using "have fun staying poor" (HFSP) in an argument is a disservice. It suggests that if you don't adopt Bitcoin, you will miss your chance at becoming rich. While this may be true to some extent, it isn't what the actual goal of this inevitable financial revolution is – becoming free and independent. This will especially be the case for the late majority of adopters, who will have little to no immediate financial benefit from adopting Bitcoin. If anything, I believe "have fun self-censoring" (HFSC) is a more accurate way of highlighting the main issue in times of rapidly growing surveillance states with an authoritarian agenda that worsens by the day.
