It's impressive how many people are unable to simultaneously hold two thoughts in their head.

Yes, it's great that we're talking about debanking.

No, it's not great that this conversation is driven by investment interests attempting to mandate even more nonsense surveillance that effectively does nothing to solve the problem (to the contrary, it likely makes it worse).

Nuance, my guys. It really ain't so complicated.

Most people have trouble actually thinking or having complex thoughts if they are not spoonfed to them in nicely packaged propaganda packages

Thanks for what you do Lola. 🧡

Right wing Bitcoiners - yes, they’ve been debanking us, the government sucks!

Progressives - yes, they’ve been debanking us, these evil corporations and billionaires suck!

The truth:

Right Wing Free Marketeers: The buying and selling of goods and services at the retail level should be able to pay for everything that humans need. I shouldn't have to pay any more taxes than absolutely necessary.

Left Wing Free Marketeers: There are expenses that are beyond the power of individuals, and we have a responsibility to care for our fellow man and the Earth. We should only have to pay taxes for those things that we all agree are worth financing through governance structures that we all help to develop and maintain.

Why not both?

Correct me if I’m wrong but what I’m getting is: taxation with choice in representation of our own interests

if WE want something done, WE finance it and pay for it. right now we elect representatives that seem to do whatever the hell they want and then they demand that we pay for it.

Agreed! We're tired of this political dynamic that never seems to change. Now it feels like they're trying to capture bitcoin and impose regulations on it, especially now that central banks are getting worried they're not needed, thus it's in their best interest to silence the voice of the many and pander to the elite few.

Regulations cannot be placed on Bitcoin. They can only be placed on people. Any regulations they try to place on Bitcoin will fail.

Hear ye, hear ye!!

Yeah but the “government” and the evil corporations and billionaires are virtually one in the same.

You can not entertain the thought of Bitcoin AND Monero at the same time. Despite you could greatly benefit from it. So who are you to teach is on that matter?

You clearly know nothing about my work – good luck exhausting yourself in my replies though.

So you do not publish your work? I read it. And I care for the same things.

And I somehow care more for your security than you yourself.

Debanking people is a clear sign of abuse of power, kinda rule by repression and fear to get the normies aligned with central bankers enforced regulations, nothing more nothing less, and definitely not at all something one would expect the take place in a so called democracy.

Bankers are the new “kapos”
