I remember being told in the early 00s that I was being ridiculous when I thought there was an agenda due to seeing an uptick in gay content on tv despite the there not being the population to warrant it.
All the left can do is lie. We can pull up numerous sources including funny or die that claimed republicans were lying about gays going after kids to indoctrinate them.
It is worse than that. One of the foundations of Critical Theory is that the Truth is whatever brings society at large closer to embracing socialism.
So the truth is literally anything that lets them win.
At least liars know they are lying. This political movement / religion has crawled through the education institutions and they are teaching that there is no such thing as truth.
Ah, reason 1,000,001 why as bad as the US is, the UK is infinitely worse.
Apparently this guy's account was frozen by an ex parte request from the government. In the US the ability to go ex parte to the judge without any prior notice to the other party is extremely limited- like restraining orders for an imminent threat of violence, or serious crimes where evidence is presented that if you are notified of an investigation or court proceedings you will destroy evidence or flee. Certainly not for what appears to be an entirely civil matter.
It's just authoritarianism wrapped with a thin veneer of "democracy" over there.
De-banking is different than freezing funds. If you're de-banked, your existing accounts are closed and you can't open new ones.
While this makes life difficult to navigate, and almost impossible to navigate for businesses (which is why it's used against marijuana and gun dealers), nobody is actually seizing your funds. There are laws that govern how long a bank can hold on to your money if it closes your account, so you're getting your money back on that timeline at the latest.
In this case, it's a court order freezing his assets. There is a significantly higher bar to do that in the US, and as I said, only in exigent circumstances can they do it without having an actual court hearing where you're allowed to plead your side to the judge.
Its a pain in the ass but you can just buy debit gift cards to do any online bill pay. Every job is required to offer you a check if you want and places like walmart will cash them for 3 dollars. You absolutely do not need a bank to have a job.
Unless you can't find a bank willing to open an account. I knew someone that got debunked that told the bank "that's great, give me my money in cash," and the bank said no.
But on this occasion it's Ireland, the Ireland that isn't part of the UK. So this lies with the European courts as Ireland is in the EU.
But the UK has been known to do things like this too. Government overreach has gone too far when someone's takings from their taxed earnings is withheld from them without notice. At least jail him if he's not capable of his own livelihood by himself.
But then they'd have to do that to everyone not capable and that would put them up the creek without a paddle in no time!
Oof, that's on me. I know Ireland is an independent country and don't know why I made that mistake. I must have been thinking Northern Ireland for some reason.
It's not just the government. If you have a remotely valid claim on someone's assets, then it is extremely easy to get a preliminary order freezing someone's bank accounts.
While advocating violence here will get your post removed, I remain perplexed that more people don't go that route when a government or business systematically destroys their life (see also: child support and alimony).
It seems that a perfectly logical outgrowth of ruining someone's life is that you should expect them to take revenge, yet that doesn't seem to be part of the calculus of these entities that do it, and for the most part they appear to be correct.
That's one of the reasons they went after Luigi so hard: if the masses realize they can just kill the people screwing them over it will upset the entire balance of power.
I'm mystified as well, while at the same time in no way calling for it. When there are specific people who are responsible for something, like journalists destroying people's lives for clicks, I'm unsure how they get away unscathed.
Regular glowiness is completely pointless. While, again, I'm in no way advocating for it, people facing consequences for their actions might actually deter people from taking such actions in the future.
You can construct a fuel air bomb with a can of fuel and a charcoal fire. You can make a Boling Liquid Air Explosion with a propane bottle and a gas burner.
You can make nitrates out of rotting dung.
Sure, C1 plastic explosives would be better, but anyone with a basic knowledge of chemistry can work something out.
We used to joke about this during the covid scam. The people were saying that we wouldn't be able to buy groceries because Walmart (etc) wouldn't let the unvaxxed in.
Like if you do that to enough people they will just start hijacking walmart (etc) trucks. Im glad my state didn't give a shit about the scam.
This sort of shit doesn’t stop until we force it to stop. Voting isn’t going to get it done. Every peaceful option the system gives you to remove the corruption is thoroughly controlled by the people who’ve corrupted the western world. There will be no political heroes or reform parties that will do the job Western men have to do, I don’t care how uncomfortable that makes you feel, it is the truth for every western nation. This ends with a social credit score technocratic enslavement system if we don’t step up.
Seems like these days if you're going to stand up against woke governments you want to have a few months living expenses somewhere that they can't reach. Somewhere that's not in the EU.
Probably not America either depending on how the midterms run.
Bitcoin might not be the optimal longterm strategy, but I fail to see the issue with it if you are in this situation. If this isn't the best ad for Crypto, I don't know what is.
I think you'd be hard pressed to pay your rent or buy groceries with crypto. Crypto is cute on paper but falls apart as a viable currency as soon as you leave the internet.

When they debank someone who has (almost) nothing to lose (like me), they're going to find out why debanking is a bad idea.
Nothing more dangerous than someone with nothing to lose. That's why they always go for the firearms first
They welcome that, in fact the more radical they make their enemies the better. It gives them justification to crack down even harder.
Doesn't matter if you can't do anything or don't know who to get angry at.

Hate to tell you, but the US has been debanking people for over 15 years with no recourse available for the debanked.

That may be true in England but not America.

Bro try civil asset forfeiture which is legal in 49 states minus Nebraska IIRC
This is (the Republic of) Ireland, not the UK.
Yep, gave my mea culpa to m0r1arty when he pointed it out. Not sure what I was thinking.
I'm with you!

It's part of the EU, so not very independent. Maybe as independent as Delaware.
I border Delaware, believe me they think they are independently special

It's like watching a person getting arrested while shouting you can't do this officer,this is an illegal arrest.

destroy all bankers
This is the sort of shit that justifies violent retaliation because they're trying to keep you from being able to eat.
That's why they always go for the firearms first
And as we see in the UK, once they've got your firearms they start confiscating all pointy objects.
The Irish know very well that bombs are easier to make than guns.
That's why across the EU or UK they're restricting access to materials which causes problems for all sorts of other normal household or business uses.
They can't ban nitrates. Or fuel.

Is there any guy named Enoch who isn't awesome?
It's the namesake, Enoch supposedly never died.
I meant Enoch Powell, greater than great.
Bitcoin might not be the optimal longterm strategy, but I fail to see the issue with it if you are in this situation. If this isn't the best ad for Crypto, I don't know what is.
I think you'd be hard pressed to pay your rent or buy groceries with crypto. Crypto is cute on paper but falls apart as a viable currency as soon as you leave the internet.
Cash is good for groceries and rent, though, and there's crypto ATMs around these parts that go direct from digi-wallet to real wallet
Right, but you have two viable options currently with crypto, if debanked:
2 is actually much easier than you'd think. I have accounts in two other countries and I'm not even a citizen of them.
You can go into any gas station and use cash to buy gift debit cards. They work just like debit/credit cards online.
What countries can you recommend that make that easy?
You can sell crypto for cash in your local pub. You'll find someone who will take a decent deal on it.
IRS: "Do you own, access or control any foreign banking accounts?"
Me: No, not at all. The thought never even crossed my mind. Should I be? 🙄
