Welcome to the era of civil asset forfeiture for your bank accounts. Where governments are woke, broke, and the new f-word is **Freedom**.

Excerpt:
"Christia Freeland’s edict tonight that the government can now seize bank accounts with no due process and no recourse could only have been made possible by a complicit media, shaping an utterly false narrative about the truckers convoys and even of “freedom” itself.
For about six years or so, the far left, woke progressives have been operating under the assumption of being (ironically) “on the right side of history”, that their pronunciations, accusations and neuroses were canonical truth while all other thought was heretical and offensive.
They believed themselves to be objectively correct about everything, and that they evangelized an all-encompassing worldview of purported fairness and equity. Yet, the vast majority of their rhetoric is the embodiment of flat-out hatred and othering. For self-declared anti-fascists, their prescriptions around nearly everything amount to pure unvarnished totalitarianism."
...
"Both then and now, what they’ve accomplished is to actually amplify the game theory that incentivizes getting as much of one’s wealth out of the legacy banking system as fast as possible.
Nevermind that in the legacy banking system:
Your purchasing power is stolen via inflation (accelerating toward escape velocity)
Interest rates on your savings are negative in real terms
You’re using debt as currency
As of tonight, in Canada, the old adage “safe as money in the bank” isn’t what it used to be. Your money can be seized.
No warrant. No court order
No due process, no recourse
and the banks are shielded from liability.
Or
Bitcoin as the global opt-out. When you don’t have protection under the law, when you’re just on the receiving end of what is decreed, when ultra-wealthy socialists are busily re-imagining your life, and when you get demonized as a fringe and alt-right just for demanding your “Freedom” back, then you really don’t have to do anything else.
Just nod and smile and stack some sats.
The rest will take care of itself."
