Are bitcoiners guilty of their own idolization and echo chambers? Did Bitcoin make El Salvador free or was it something else?

"Bitcoin is a LAND GRAB for Sats. Did Bitcoin make El Salvador a FREE country? The BIGGEST hurdle to HYPER-BITCOINIZATION." - Surfer Jim

He emphasizes the importance of individuals controlling their own Bitcoin and the need for a change in incentives at every level of society. Jim also expresses his opinions on Bukele and El Salvador and the need for individuals to continually check their own echo chambers and question the narratives they are presented with.
