totally... I feel yah #1417296

The words I ended that article with echo in my mind now every time I open a fiat bank app:

Even if I ultimately get my fiat funds back, I’ll probably never bank with Revolut again — and be increasingly suspicious of every other bank. For how do I live with an AML-shaped sword of Damocles forever hanging over my head?

fiat is permissioned and bullshit... but bitcoin is imploding and impoverishing its users, and thus bullshit, so wth are we doing?

If the fiat masters really believe bitcoin is bullshit, why don't they leave me alone to buy as much of it as I damn well please?

proteeeeecting you. For your oooown good.

Also, yeah, I dunno. Makes no sense. Let you waste your shitty fiat away on (even shitter) orange stuff... they permit gambling and lotteries and all manner of nonsense, so why not this one?!

Because gambling and lotteries aren't a threat, they're a cash cow.

Exactly.
