My government decide to ban bitcoin because it can be use for criminal. IMO, they must do it in order to protect civilian from bad things such like terorism , money laundry etc
So eventhough my government forbid bitcoin doesn't mean that I have to become anti-G

I also think that government is anti bitcoin because they do not want to see competing currencies. They threaten their monopoly to create money and control the financial system and the economy. For example ,China more than any other country wants to have firm control of its banking system, and allocate credit according to a political agenda. This means that a competing currency like the Bitcoin would threaten its political system.
With the government ruling over Bitcoin, most of its purposes that its users enjoy would be defeated since the government would implement rules, just like how they handle fiat. For example, high taxing would be imposed which could be quite unfair because for me, you deserve to have evey bit of your Bitcoin. In the Philippines, it's so hard to trust the government since corruption is rampant. Having control over Bitcoin will just be a benefit on their part and not on its users or earners.
I think it's because of taxes, of course we have to pay taxes, because that's also to make the country more advanced, but bitcoin is different, the government has taxed our pay monthly, why they should take from here too. happy to bitcoin because no one controls it.
I would not mind the taxes so much if at least the money was used to help those that need it, but with the enormous size of corruption in my country most of the money that is destined to help the poor is stolen or it is used to buy the votes of those that are poor, so it is natural that people that pay taxes are not happy and bitcoin is looking like a tool that can be used to starve the government. the government is not anti to bitcoin, but at least the government is monitoring the development of bitcoin, which is feared by the government if sometime something happens with bitcoin then the responsible is bitcoin users may like that in my opinion.
Governments had nothing to do with bitcoin some of the states had banned bitcoin because they are just worried about their economy, it is because that bitcoin is helping people to get rid of bitcoin and is making their money safe without using bank, which in a way decrease the use of banks and hence they average amount of tax is also reduced from the banks side. Bitcoin is autonomous, it is ruled by no one but by the public and I think this is the only feature which make it very unique from other physical and digital currencies.

I have realized that almost every body is anti government when it comes to bitcoin and be decentralized or not being controlled by government. 
Here to be anti government is a usual thing because here we are not playing games , not making jokes , not making any illegal work , not scamming anyone , not doing wrong with another with but we are making earnings by using our mind at international level .We are not begging Money but we are giving money in this field and with opportunity and better time of inevstment we are making money .
As usual everyone knows that how the population of the world is increasing and how the unemployment is also increasing with the population , so it is very tough thing for us to make living , here we are able to make living with the help of bitcoin then why government are against bitcoin , rather they should support bitcoin for such big thing that is giving job ( a type of business ) for all .
Hey, you raised a valid point here. Bitcoin has really alleviate most people's lives, specially in third world countries. Imagine those people get x4 or even x5 of the basic salary in their country. It's a huge boost to them, their life has somewhat turns upside down before of their involving and earning with bitcoin. But why government's are anti-bitcoin. I speculate that with all the negative news about bitcoin, used by criminals - this is what made them go against it. We all know that the government mandates is to protect their citizens, so if they consider bitcoin as being used for illegal activities, they will ban it whether it has also a positive things that can bring to their people.

In order to understand this in the proper way, you can do the following mental experiment: replace the government with a random guy. He takes half of your money and spends it to whatever he likes. Some of it is good, but some is very bad. You tell him that he cannot do bad things with your money, but he ignores you and increases the bad to good ratio to wrong direction. What would you do?
Governments are generally not in support of something they cannot control and bitcoin is just one of those things and for them to entertain it whereas they have their own centralized currency has become a big problem for them.

Not all people are anti-government, sometimes we misunderstand the policies taken by the government against bitcoin, for example the government prohibits the use of bitcoin as a legal means of payment in a country, because the legal currency applicable in a country is set by law. but not prohibit trading on bitcoin.
Government is pro big business. Government is anti privacy. Government is pro extreme rich. Government is anti national. You see the pattern? Government does not work for the benefit of the average Joe, but for the benefit of the ones who already made their only goal in life how to increase their billions on expense of the average Joe.
Well I don`t think that people are anti government but they are against of a sided government who controls money and gives it to its supporters whereas just rich become richer and poor poorer. If there is no injustice why one would be against government. ?
Correct, governments are supposed to be there to administrate the nation and make it better, but at some point that gets forgotten and the government itself becomes the priority that is why you see governments that only care about maintaining themselves in power and politicians that are only thinking about how to enrich themselves and buy people votes so people vote for them again.

Bitcoin enthusiast are anti governments because governments will never want to have a system that they cannot control, they don't want a decentralized system and bitcoin is decentralized therefore governments don't want it and since we the bitcoiner love bitcoin we have to see governments as enemies. In bitcoin governments which is been headed by evils politicians and elites that have enslave many people will not like people to see bitcoin as the best alternative to fiat systems which is tools in the hands. 
Simply because government is unable to control and track transaction taking place over the countries, hence they are not able to track the income of a user. Thereby not able to find users actual income, giving government a loss and making them anti-government.
That may be true, but not entirely true. Not all countries in the world oppose Bitcoin, there are some countries that support and use Bitcoin as a tool to improve their economy. There are some countries that ban Bitcoin, probably because they think they can not take profit from Bitcoin. Usually a country like that would think that Bitcoin makes them lose, because people tend to select Bitcoin because it is free of taxes. We also do not keep Bitcoin in the bank, and we can be free to do transactions. Maybe that's why many countries do not like Bitcoin. And if a small country can take advantage of Bitcoin, surely they will become a rich country.

When it comes to our bitcoin we dont want the government go regulate it and impose tax to us thats why we are anti government.
Bad government is bad inflation rate and bitcoin is not affected by the inflation of a certain country.

I think 80% of people are anti government , it is just because some of the law of governments are causing people be in poverty . some people also thinks that the government didn't do anything for their own countrymen ..
If you think about it governments do not really solve anything and in fact create more problems than they solve, they charge you taxes to keep you safe and yet criminality rates in my country are sky high, they say they redistribute wealth for the poor, but they steal most of that money and they do not generate wealth themselves so they make the process and even greater waste of time, so like you see governments of the world fail at almost anything they are supposed to do.Taxes is the one of the reason for anti government thought.All the country in this world charging taxes from there people expect Arabian country.Did they spend that taxes for the people welfare???
Obviously no,so this make the people angry for the stealing of their money in the name of taxes.
