@tisktisk@monero.town @tusker@monero.town you don't have to pick a side, that's the biggest trap of the system.

You don't have to pick the left or the right or the communists or whatever term or ideology/religion they throw at you. Remember, they need you to pick any side so you get involved in the system and act according to what the thing you picked tells you to.

If someone has fallen for this trap, that doesn't mean they are bad people. It just means they fell for the trap so usually they push that thing because they think it's the right thing to do. Maybe someday they realize they fell for a trap the system put there, then they will start to see things more clear and objectively. These people can be your friends tomorrow.

I'm not sitting on a high horse, I'm guilty of fallen for this trap in the past as well. Even though I'm aware of this, I watch myself just in case.

this is by design

of course

the reason why so many people just work and work and work and by the end of the month they can barely get by and they are always in debt is also by design.

you work and pay your taxes, corporations and the ruling class get richer. And you have to work 5 of every 7 days just to get by, what a coincidence.

And if you somehow managed to save some money or buy a house or whatever, then you end up spending all of that money in some cancer treatment or other modern disease making pharma and medical industry richer is also by design.

What? how would the govt fund wars to protect us? how would the govt fund the indoctrination system to educate us?

I understand you probably have seen family members or friends get diagnosed with cancer and paying a lot of money to the system to stay alive, so you live in fear it can happen to more of them or even to yourself. It doesn't have to be like that, once you understand cancer is toxicity in your body you can avoid it. The reason there is so many people getting cancer in modern times is the toxicity we get in modern life style such as processed food, what we drink and pharmaceuticals. So change this toxic lifestyle and you will avoid cancer. Of course the medical industry says cancer is just bad luck or bad genes to make people think there's nothing to do to avoid it.

if you already have such condition, there are different methods you can use to get rid of it, none of them are promoted by the medical industry because they won't make so much profit. if you're not so blinded by the medical industry, take a look at documentaries of how others have dealt with this condition, I'll give you an example: https://odysee.com/@notanotherbrick:f/The-Science-of-Fasting--_-Documentary:a

it's not really about we getting cancer treatments for "free", the medical industry doesn't really cares if people directly pay or the govt pays the bills for endless treatments of a population getting cancer. They only need people not to address the cause of why they're getting cancer.

hope this helps you or someone else

report says

lol

How does XMR prevent transactions from sanctioned nations?

how does cash or digital cash(XMR) prevent transactions? your question doesn't make much sense

it would be like asking a 20$ dollar bill to stop being transacted from someone sanctioned. A 20$ dollar bill itself cannot discriminate who is using it. You give that 20$ bill to someone and they don't know the history of that 20$ bill, you don't know who used it before and that's why everyone can take it, because this means they know they will be able to use it.

when something is fungible like cash or digital cash(XMR), law enforcement needs to find other ways to stop what they considered sanctioned nations or criminals or bad people or whatever.

yeah bro arch ftw... but you better update your rolling thing asap

The US dollar has lost about 98% of it’s value since 1971 yet people still use it in trade rather than gold or silver or a better fiat like Swiss Franc

right, it's not like it's imposed by law and military...

OP seems to miss the whole picture. For many people a CEX like binance was an easy way to onboard xmr and then send to wallet, not using the CEX for keeping xmr as op implies.

binance is not allowing withdraws?

edit

dumb Stupid fuck.

Perhaps, you never know. it's a little hard to believe that someone with technical skills would fail like that. is it also possible this event was done like that so they could falsely claim Monero was traced? yes.

Later in the future I expect several fabricated events to make Monero look real bad in headlines, not just "traced"

KRP did not disclose the exact mechanism for tracing the Monero transactions, citing the need to protect sensitive investigative techniques that can prove invaluable in future cases.

of course... looks like more of the usual, nothing.
