Saylor thinks you are a paranoid crypto anarchist if you hold your own keys and don't trust the government.

He has always been a bad actor, I will repeat it as many times as necessary.

He is lying when he says it was voluntarily. From ChatGPT:

The penalties for violating Executive Order 6102 were severe:

1. Criminal Penalties: Violation of the order was considered a criminal offense. Those found guilty could face a fine of up to $10,000. This was a substantial amount of money at the time, equivalent to more than $200,000 in today’s dollars, when adjusted for inflation.

2. Imprisonment: In addition to or in lieu of fines, violators could be sentenced to imprisonment for up to 10 years.

3. Forfeiture of Gold: Any gold not surrendered by the deadline (May 1, 1933) could be confiscated by the government without compensation. The government would seize gold that had been illegally retained by individuals or businesses.

In the same vein as "people took the ... jab voluntarily" when in fact many would have lost their livelihoods without taking it.

Sure, they did not go door to door and bust down your door and take your gold. They just went to the bank where you put your gold and told the bank to give it all to them. Which the bank promptly did. Since the vast majority of people did not own their coins, they were robbed.
