A bittersweet change.
My current department does all the legislative amendments for the financial services sector as well as all amendments for international global standard sending bodies. This includes beneficial ownership which records All of your data and shares it with other countries to taxes, to anti-money laundering to sanctions.
As those who watched my podcasts would know, this is a play of conscience for me. On the one hand, I get to see what's really happening from the inside. But on the other hand, I have to justify it to my own conscience that I'm serving to build The framework that is enslaving us.
Well, I've been pretty vocal about my hatred for anti-money laundering and how I really think global standards setting bodies are usurping the sovereignty of nations.
Today, I've been told that our department has grown so large, mostly because of the global standard setting implementation work we're doing, that we are splitting into two groups, one which deals with global standards And another which we'll deal with the actual financial services legislation that we're supposed to be doing.
Because of my outspoken nature, I've been told that I will be in the latter.
That means I'll be able to sleep better at night because of the work I'm doing, But it also means I'm going to be a little bit more distant from the global standard setting fuckery that my government is doing.
I was almost half hoping that they would want someone that pushes back on the standard setting team, But we all know they just want compliant servile people who don't question.
