Bitcoin's decentralization can never be taken for granted.

[Mikky02]

Indeed decentralization is a revolution as said by the poster and mostly to bitcion and should never be taken for granted the freedom of not being controlled by any organization shouldn't be taken for granted Imagine Bitcoin is not a decentralized currency what could have been the future of Bitcoin.The joy of Bitcoin not being controlled by a centralized authority like banks gives it users the pleasure of transacting their asset without being controlled.The advantage of Bitcoin decentralization shouldn't be taken for granted.

There will always be those in the world who want to dominate and control everything, including bitcoin.
Human nature tends to gravitate towards centralized power and control, if not to outright destroy.
Which is true for all things in life not just bitcoin btw.

That is why it will always be a constant struggle to maintain the network's integrity and keep it true to Satoshi's original vision.
You can win one great battle against powerful reactionary forces, only to face another one immediately after. We can never let our
guard down and allow ourselves to become complacent because there will always be those who are scheming to roll back and contain it.
Decentralization is a revolution and will always be a threat to the existing order.

The fight against tyranny is never ending. In the words of Thomas Jefferson, the price of freedom is eternal vigilance.

It is so bad that people can go as far as disrespecting the founder of something just because of their personal gains and greed
This is a high level of selfishness, and it shows you how bad people can go get their selfish vanity gains.
It is just so disappointing but nevertheless we all should try our best to make sure bitcoin stays decentralized .
We should make sure be put enough pressure and do all we can to make bitcoin the way it was created.
 this is when developers come in to make Technologies that will support the decentralization of Bitcoin even if it's to fund them
nobody will ever be able to centralize Bitcoin if we put enough pressure

Exactly. Greed will always push some people to try and twist Bitcoin for their own benefit, even at the cost of disrespecting its roots. That’s why it’s up to us as a community to defend decentralization and support the developers who are building tools to keep it that way. With enough pressure and commitment, Bitcoin can stay true to what it was meant to be

People like this and the government were part of the reasons we have bitcoin today, so they had better clear off their minds from seeing bitcoin one day centralized, no matter their purchasing power, stronghold and investment made, they will always be subject to the decentralized digital network and they cant control the power from within, you can see how the whales may also be in losses at some point and in other cases be in profits.

Whales, organizations, and investment funds are completely different from governments. Institutions, whales may not be able to change or control bitcoin, but don't underestimate the power and capabilities of governments. They can do things we never expected, don't underestimate them.

I don't know if they can centralize and control bitcoin, or what they can do with it in the future. But do you remember what happened to mixers and privacy coins like XMR? It was just a small crackdown, what if they went harder and tried to destroy them all? I don't think they can survive anymore. So do not look down on and underestimate the government.
