S.401 - Fair Access to Banking Act

[Nigger Cattle]

And to think libertarians 15 years ago were talking about how cryptocurrency was created to prevent all of this...
I mean, it was, but barely anyone uses it for goods and services because they are all afraid of parting ways with a few coins and, suddenly, missing out on milions in the future.

Anyway, Null, have you ever thought about how you would monetize this website if you had full-on access to banking? Would you create premium accounts or something and paywall some of the content? By the way, how long have you had this problem for? I know you always talk about Liz-Fong Jones when it comes to this type of shit, but were you able to monetize the Farms in any way ever? I know that you've monetized the streams, but probably because it doesn't automatically registers to people that MATI is KF related.

It's alarming how much goes through and relies on that app, someone at an old job I knew would go there for work and family and the things he would show me were unsettling.

The scarier thing is some people outside of China actually WANT their Governments to implement the same thing, just so they can keep their access for doing the "right thing", and the LE EVIL FASCISTS AND NAZIS get "rightfully punished" by being banned from it.

Took the words out of my mouth.

Elaborate.
I and I'm sure a lot of other people are curious

WeChat is home to man made horrors beyond understanding. It is somehow worse than fucking tiktok brainrot wise and its users are unironically even worse than fucking redditors.

 

[The ATF Disliked That]

This shit is really unfuckingbelievable, the normgroid population will never realize how entirely too much power these payment processors hold.

There's a lot I've learned over the past few years, and now learning about all of this. Incredible that a couple companies can dictate how shit works and that nothing can be done about without extreme changes.

You will watch the world die, and there is nothing you can do.

We're fucked.

its kinda sad seeing this thread be derailed by "us vs them" when its the main point of null's post, ik i shouldnt read too much into it cuz its the nature of the forum
but it makes me think if change is at all possible these days, every corp is big united and communities are small and divided
bleak shit man

Gamergate almost reminds me of the way leftists discuss communist revolutions.

"The material conditions for communism do not exist yet" etc, etc.

In this case Gamergate 2 lacks something proper to rally around. For some its been elevated to something far more than just a chance to yell at stupid feminists but rather its become romanticized vision of gamers rising from their chairs like ancient Ents to out of nowhere force a major change on society. Laughing at these Australian feminists is cathartic, but it would be a waste of a Gamergate-like campaign. The recent conservative efforts to reign in debanking and payment processors do not actually address the real problem so that is a wasted Gamergate moment as well. The federal government has concerns about VISA/Mastercard being monopolies but how do you rally around that?

And so we sit waiting for the moment, bickering over nonsense instead of making change.

while the ladies at mumsnet are bongs, do you suppose that they would be interested in internet censorship via payment processors? how do you think they'd react to the holes sentiment?

They'd be sensible and take it on the chin. Because they're adults, many with families who I trust aren't going to generalize their sex over a handful of opportunistic narcissists who sleep with men for fame and access.

If this was an op-ed to the New York Times, I'd agree with you, but it's on the Farms and we all get shit here. Why do you get to be above the gutter?

Whitepills are a narcotic. We have no hope or future.

Change is basically impossible now. All we can do is wait for our demise.

Don't be a clout-seeking faggot by borderline doxing yourselves on Kiwi Farms over how you're a responsible citizen by writing to your Senators and House representatives. Do it, the gerontocracy is still very much beholden to written letters, and don't brag about it. Even if absolutely fucking nothing happens from you writing to your Senator or congressman, you still benefit from civic engagement. Haggard old people held such sway in this country, and still do to this day, because they actually wrote to all levels of government and regularly voted. Make time, or wallow in your own misery if you wanna be an obnoxious doomer about it.

Nothing will change. We're fucked.

Here's what will happen:

• The bill dies in committee and is never tried again
• This entire controversy is memoryholed and payment processors have free reign to take down anything TPTB doesn't like.

We are cattle and deserve to be treated as such.

I mean that's apparently the demographic that's being appealed to here while completely alienating a large demographic that was already on Null's side about this issue but will read the word "holes" to refer to women and click off because it's entirely unnecessary and obvious pandering to a certain demographic (sexless gooner gamers). Which is very ironic considering the part just before that saying people trying to turn this into Gamer Gate 2 are stupid, then why pander to them? Whatever

That is a fully retarded take.
Why would women in general be upset if Josh points out that a very specific small group of women are retarded holes?

Are women like niggers? That they are just one monolith where individuals do not exist? If you call one woman a retarded hole then you are basically calling all women retarded holes?
That is the theory? Women are like niggers and no individuality exists? You call one nigger a nigger and that is an attack on every black person on the planet? That is how it works for women too?

I'm against both dangerhairs and sunday school marms getting to dictate what media I consume. But each side is happy when the otherside gets censored so the mechanism keeps getting built up. If only they'd attack each other in a way that prevented anything from getting done.

The elite are all about transcendence and living forever and the secrets of the universe and they want to know all of this. Some are good, some are bad, some are a mix. But the good ones don't ever want to organize, the bad ones are the ones to organize because lust after power. Powerful consciousnesses don't want to dominate other people, they want to empower them so they don't tend to get together until things are really late in the game, then they come together - evil's always defeated because good is so much stronger.

its not even ragebait, its just demoralisation
