Absolute power corrupts absolutely. Unfortunately we see this all across the world in all types of governments. Call me naïve, but I'd like to believe there is a way governing can work with out slowly pushing power to the top over time. The current situation we're in though is well beyond that as it is not just about power, but control. You are on the money with this, bitcoin and crypto can't be controlled and are therefore feared and attacked.

First they ignore you
Then they laugh at you
Then they fight you ---> (we are here)
Then you win

But if really we are to look it from another angle, the sec are doing a great job in protecting the people 

Yeah, this is getting out of hand. I mean, we knew there would be some pushback, but they are kind of going full-on nuclear option here. At least in the US. The fact that the rest of the world continues to move forward with crypto gives me some hope. Hopefully it isn't too late before the US realizes...

George Soros is suffering from the crypto going higher, because his funds in USD would reduce in value. So he is putting in efforts to devalue the BTC and ETH. A lot of his controlled media speaks against crypto and the decentralized social media. So I suppose we have to find ways to bypass such 1 percent rich folks.

Here's hoping it will be Gary Gensler getting chopped first... he had an inside deal with FTX clearly to destroy anyone who wouldn't let TradFi be in control of the crypto show.

> Governments are not designed to improve our lives, they are established to control our lives,

This is really true about the government with the advantage they have in controlling other people's lives without contributing something positive to assist.

Money and power that’s all that seems to matter here in the US. The SEC is the new bully on the block, trying to stomp on crypto because it scares them . If we stop following their rules and start thinking for ourselves, we can become more self sufficient, rejecting their demands that we fall in line.
Whether crypto survives is anyone’s guess but I am hoping enough big shots have bought in already and will influence the powers that be .
It’s a crying shame 

Hi, @tarazkp

I used to write about the topic you share with us today. Those who have suffered from the onslaught of hyperinflation know well what you are saying. Always the first state as well as its corporate cronies will try to keep the vast majority of humanity in line. And what better than to stimulate their ills, and present them with a fallacy in the state (big brother).

Another problem is that people still don't know how to defend themselves. Perhaps, it is blamed on the collaborative nature of homo sapiens, and the exploitation of a few profiteers. Whoever gave them the stick, now cannot take it away without violence.

As I always say, we live in interesting times. Now I add, we need determination and intelligence not to destroy ourselves in the attempt for freedom. 

Greetings.

People will always try to maintain their control and governments are no exception. From what I see, I think they want to push a narrative and have people follow that because it's the most profitable way for them. At some point, I have a feeling that they will break something and everyone will riot though.

There is definitely a power grab from governments going on. We are at the end of a cycle, and governments want to consolidate their power. The attempts of control are becoming more and more visible. The farmers of the Netherlands are one of the examples.

Yes, i agree with you that government only wants to establish themselves and make their position good just by doing some rubbish talks, everyone is trying to improve to themselves, we should try to improve ourselves and don't believe on government 

When your four security guys each have 3 x 10 round magazines, and you're mobbed by 500,000 people.

Good question! All is becoming more and more surreal. Topsy turvy. The current attempt to control the entire world is falling apart. Just look at how many things we feared would happen have not happened. 

There have been many walls erected. The first that has to go is the artificial wall between so-called liberals (close minded) and conservatives. Our coming together is crucial for our survival, which is why so much energy is spent turning us against each other. Divided, we can be conquered. Do not misplace your fears. Your neighbors, no matter who they vote for, are not the enemy! 

So what can we do? Lots of stuff, but here are a few:

Turn off MSM. Break that monster's back.

Lay down your phones and all other spy devices (alexa, ring, smart appliances...). They are the enemy's weapons! 

Pay for stuff in cash. 

Grow some of your own food. 

Say no!!!

The revolution is now. It won't be pretty, but enough of us are ready.  


 

well, hopefully that small % of the people who see it and not totally destroyed by banks, govs, big corps and other hordes, will start to use privacy coins, daily use instead of other cryptos, fiat, cbdcs and obviously centralized exchanges. So the similar 'news' events won't wipe out their pockets, can't suck out more value from cryptos (as no doubt the regulators trade these news, what they create).

exactly the opposite, it will have zero effect. only protecting the people from these evil organizations. No coincidence they hunt the privacy coins like hell, try to ban them worldwide, they know, if it goes viral, well-known, people start to use them instead of the crap what they print or digitally create, they are fcked, and the only option they left: shut down the internet (what they wrote in their NWO plans, as an option...).

and the best blockchains, privacy coins probably don't even exist yet...

I also agree that government has came into power to improves our lives but instead of making improvements they just take care of their own interests and just take care of their power. It has no concern with its peoples who are suffering so much.

I actually see governmental positions or government itself as a way of trying to be above every other person including the law so that you can choose for people the kind of lifestyle you want them to live. It does not even sound well to choose the lifestyle you want for people for them

I am surprised that people are still succumbing to FUD. Looking at the impact to the crypto prices so far, it seems mild. Maybe everyone is getting numb-er already.

I surely am getting tired of all this FUD, and the SEC, how they're suing everyone as if they're giving out Christmas presents. 😂

They just hate that we now have something that they can't control, and for them it's always been about power, nothing else. They don't care about the people, they just wanna maintain their status and make their rich buddies "richer".
