The fact that the USA had previously funded the perpetrators, and had prior knowledge of their intent indicates that it had changed long before then.
When the money breaks, those same people will be handling that crisis. This is a scary thought....and the band played on.
Bragging about the "value" of your house increasing is the equivalent of bragging that you are paying higher prices for gasoline and food.

Monetary taxation is just a way to force people into using an otherwise useless fiat currency.
An enviable position to find yourself in. 🤙
Sanctioned proprietors of economic enslavement. The true philanthropists remain unknown.
Aging population and low birth rates drive alarming rise in South Korea’s debt – Bloomberg Intelligence (BI), a research arm of Bloomberg, predicted in a recent report that Korea’s government debt-to-GDP ratio will hit the 70% mark around 2030 and reach 100% by 2045. https://www.byteseu.com/125043/ #FutureStudies #FuturesStudies #Futurology
The idea of their children being born into serfdom or economic slavery is likely not an appealing outcome for many.

“I don’t believe we shall ever have a good money again before we take the thing out of the hands of government, that is, we can’t take it violently out of the hands of government, all we can do is by some sly roundabout way introduce something that they can’t stop.” – F.A. Hayek 1984
Hard to defund people that can confiscate your value without permission. We all piss and moan as they shake us down. They will only be stopped by force. We pretend that we can stop it some other way as we watch them incarcerate our peers and steal our children's future. What cowards we have all become.
It would certainly take a major coordinated effort for all of the countries to fall in line in order to shutdown the directory servers, no question.
The likelihood of it ever happening? It's certainly plausible, but I'm still mixed on if realistically feasible. Though, that's exactly the point of my earlier note. The fact that it is even possible, should be alarming. And as you bring up, the West is now increasingly becoming anti-free-speech, often targeting activists. Which I acknowledge the correctness in nostr:npub16r0tl8a39hhcrapa03559xahsjqj4s0y6t2n5gpdk64v06jtgekqdkz5pl saying in most cases those arrested were due to bad OpSec. That's absolutely true.
However, as far as I know, the likes of fiatjaf couldn't one day decide which Nostr relays/nodes he likes/dislikes and effectively shut down any of them by having some centralized directory servers signal to "nostr browser" that they should no longer use those relays/nodes, unlike what the Tor Project can do.
So, there is an element of centralization that folks should be more aware of with Tor. What they do with this information is up to them. At no point have I said people should stop using Tor, simply by knowing said information.
Revolution is certainly plausible as well.
Fiat where's trying to debase bitcoin. Go fuck yourselves.
If bitcoin is not a payment option for anything bitcoin related, it's a grift. Nothing more than a fiat grift. If they can debase bitcoin, they will debase bitcoin.
From block size wars to fiat whores.
Dr. Ron Paul was about as far as good principles can go. They are simply not allowed to win elections.
Just told YouTube gfy. TV, Premium, and music. Tired of the censorship. Who the fuck are these people anyway?
