 I listen  to men like Frank Vanderlip, one of the men responsible for the founding of the Federal Reserve:

"I was as secretive—indeed, as furtive—as any conspirator.[…]I do not feel it is any exaggeration to speak of our secret expedition to Jekyll Island as the occasion of the actual conception of what eventually became the Federal Reserve System. ... Discovery [of our plan], we knew, simply must not happen, or else all our time and effort would be wasted. If it were to be exposed publicly that our particular group had got together and written a banking bill, that bill would have no chance whatever of passage by Congress."

 You can keep posting links, but I get it, you look up things you broadly agree with then listen to them.

It would be simpler for you to just state that you engage in confirmation bias as a general rule. 
 My confirmation bias is toward facts, yours is toward fascism lol 
 So I'm a fascist because I don't agree with how you want to force the world into using a single currency and be completely unable to enforce the rule of law. A view you hold no less based on your flawed understanding of economics and your belief that you'll stop being a poverty-stricken incel if it takes off because you're "early". 
 Lolwut.  

I'm not forcing anyone to use anything.   They have a choice. I certainly hope you never adopt bitcoin and continue to use shells or stones or whatever into the indefinite future. 

The "rule of law" that you live so much enables pedophiles like Jamie Dimon and Epstein to rule over everyone... yeah, no thanks.

You are grasping as straws here.  You're literally just an establishment mouthpiece and it's pretty entertaining watching you flail about miserably trying to defend the system that we all can tell is irreparably broken.  It's tough outside your cozy lil echo chambers, huh?

And yes, you are a fascist who supports censorship, propaganda, endless wars, and the loss of bodily sovereignty. Gfy!

 
 I'll continue to use fiat thanks, as will all nations while your ponzi scheme coins up and collapse.

Except they don't "rule over everyone". An remember, you the one that wants to give pedos more anonymity and a safe space to distribute and pay each other for child sexual assault material. Let's be honest, you're a fucking pedo and you're protecting your own interests. That's why all you have in response is whataboutisms about a dead guy.

Oh yes, that's right, I'm an establishment mouthpiece because I don't subscribe to your psychotic view that 100% of everything governments does is wrong. What I actually believe is that we as a society have agreed to live by certain rules and one of the strongest of those rules it's you don't sexually assault kids. The fact that you don't like that law does not make me an establishment mouth piece, it makes you sick little freak.

I absolutely support some degree of censorship, yes. I do not support propaganda, which funnily enough is one of the reasons I support censorship, because dangerous propaganda kills people. I absolutely abhorr wars, not that I'm sure how they fit in here, since bitcoin doesn't create world peace.

I don't think you can live in a society and have full bodily sovereignty because the whole point of society is that we all make compromises. You enjoy this when society prevents someone being allowed to bash your head in with a brick and take your stuff. Maybe the solution is with ship all you nutjobs off to an island and you can have all the sovereignty you want, outside of society. At least I know kids would be safer if you weren't around. 
 Will you continue to use Fiat when it is a digital crypto currency? 
 
 Doubt that will happen and if it does it'll be centralized and seamless to the end user. It'll be an implementation technicality of banks. 
 So you're cool with digital crypto currency, just not if it's controlled democratically, it has to be controlled by a centralized authority?  
 A centralized currency is "controlled democratically". Bitcoin is not democratic, no regular person will have any say in how it's used on a societal level.

 I don't think you understand Bitcoin.  Or Democracy.  Or basic terms like consensus for that matter.  But at least we know now that you're a Digital Cryptocurrency Maxi, just for a centralized shitcoin.
