The title says 'peer to peer electronic cash system.' It doesn't say 'peer to peer electronic cash system for things I personally approve of.' The whitepaper defines how the system works, not what people are allowed to do with it. That's the entire point. If you want gatekeepers deciding what counts as valid use, you already have fiat.

Well, I guess you bringing up intended purpose doesn't matter then. If the purpose of a thing is whatever is possible, you should have no problem with fiat. I mean, the Fed is just using it in a way that you don't like. Gatekeeping how they are using fiat is wrong, right? You see how this post-modern reasoning very quickly becomes absurd? Don't like Government? Stop gatekeeping them bro!
