No need to become criminals. You have a lot of instruments in democracies to change the narrative and regulations, especially in the year of elections. Use your power, don’t allow to degrade you to criminals.
Discussion
Kinda disagree on this one. Voting harder dosen't work. Existing power is too entrenched.
My thoughts exactly. This shit never ends,
It works, but nothing solves your problems forever: power never given, it can be only taken. The moment you stop to care your rights, you are going to be abused. That is a reality. So freedoms you enjoy right now were achieved because your grandparents or so fought for them. If you don’t defend them and give up, they will be undoubtedly taken by others.
Why I own guns.
With all due respect nostr:npub13ajk3hhvqys2ev4y68jwxywgs8fsdsuk4y5gkzs874jdyrccvf5qak2yd9 and I understand what you are doing and your work is important, especially when it comes to defending individuals - I think playing by the law is like stopping the wind with your hands.
The most important thing is to grown natural, organic immunity. If bitcoin needs antibiotics to survive, the it will not survive long, and this is really bad news. If the work you do, is fundamental for the continuity of bitcoin and it's ecosystem... If that's what you are saying, then please say it louder, because that REALLY MEANS THE END IS NIGH.
If on the other hand, your work is a palliative, which softens the blows of a increasingly authoritarian, evil and blood thirsty government(s), then it's commendable and honourable effort and it has the appropriate scale of intervention.
Please feel free to disagree and argue otherwise if you feel inclined to do so.
Thank you for all your work.
Schindler helped quite a lot of people, but that regime ended with a war.
Unfortunately things rarely work out through voting. Civil disobedience is more effective. The label “criminal” means nothing when the ones assigning it to you are the biggest criminals in the world. Bitcoin was designed to fight this censorship resistance.
Unjust laws must be broken.
One can only vote so hard.
Guess you missed COVID, but good luck
Since you write me in English, you probably had a chance to get educated without much effort contrary to the situation we have in many authoritarian states.
Covid restrictions were possible because just a few opposed. But those who opposed actually did changes that we right now don’t experience restrictions. If you fight back you get what you want. There is always a price for that, obviously.
Well I wouldn't call around 25-30% of the population "a few".
What % are you expecting to stand up to these regulations? Which I would imagine far fewer people would really see as a big deal, sadly.
It depends on country. Some people prefer to watch from sofas while other project rights.
It is a reality.
My goal to activate exactly those who care about rights. 20-30 % is perfect. But they need to know about it. We were getting this information just recently since trilogue was without consultations with civil society.
Unfortunately.
So we have to be active now.
As I said, good luck.
The farmers were fairly successful because they came in with heavy equipment and we're not fking around.
Planning to write a petition?
I'm not sure what you are getting at.
This move can be looked at as creeping tyranny, which it is. It can also be seen as a signal, that they know the financial system is close to breaking again.
Bah that’s bullshit. They got exactly what and everything they wanted and didn’t need to keep pushing the scam. They passed all sorts of new tryanical laws, radically changing our legal system, radically Changing our infrastructure, radically redistributing wealth, injected the masses and so GD much more. And got away with it Scott free. And you would characterize this as a win for us/the people. Jfc you are intergalacticly delusional 🤦♀️
Ehen those who make the law refuse to follow the law there no law. Just a fight for survival.
