[ANARCHY] Town posts armed guards to stop contraband entry

A Mexican Town Overthrew Their Local Government And Things Are Going Great https://www.zerohedge.com/news/2018-07-02/mexican-town-overthrew-their-loca… The town of Cherán, Mexico was once plagued… Cherán is now run by autonomous groups of armed individuals… members of an autonomous militia — guard every entrance to the town, looking for strangers with contraband… “Contraband” would be considered political propaganda posters of those who claim the right to rule other human beings. …Cherán has achieved something unthinkable in Michoacán: a dramatic drop in murder rates, with rates for other serious crimes hovering at nearly zero. For those in Mexico, especially in an election year marred by wanton political murders, Cherán stands as proof that, in the country’s entrenched cycle of violence, the key ingredient to that violence is the state.

[OT] Anti Racist Jokes
by Cecilia Tanaka 25 Dec '18

25 Dec '18

# Why is a racist like a bad dog? Both mark their territory with shit. # A fat racist and a skinny racist jump off a cliff. Who wins? Society. # How many Nazis does it take to change a light bulb? 100. 1 to change the bulb and 99 to deny it ever happened. # What do you call a racist abortion centre? Crime stoppers. # What’s the difference between a racist and a bucket of sludge? The bucket. # What’s the difference between a ghost and a racist? One is a sheet-wearing spook who tries to scare people out of their homes, and the other one is a dead guy. -- "The future cannot be predicted, but futures can be invented."

Assange Journalism
by John Young 09 Dec '18

09 Dec '18

Matt Taibbi reports on Assange in Rolling Stone in a one of the more salient grasps of what journalism has missed about WikiLeaks feeding its maw. https://www.rollingstone.com/politics/politics-news/taibbi-julian-assange-c… A noteworthy observation is how all the risk is taken by leakers not by publishers and journalists -- nor by WikiLeaks and Assange. Nearly every major leak to WikiLeaks (and the media) has led to the leaker being hammered while the publishers are awarded prizes, as with WikiLeaks. That is evident from the number of leakers who have been severly punished while WikiLeaks and Assange is showered with glory.and repetitive news coverage. Wikipedia's WikiLeaks entry is grotesque. That's asymmetric racketeering side of leakage, to the benefit of journalists, publishers, lawyers and public interest organizations, all of whom are granted special privileges by authorities and in many cases handsome donations from fat cats through tax benefits. Its as if by overdoing lauding Assange and WikiLeaks those who have taken the highest risk can be slighted with impunity. Only fools would leak if they knew what is in store for them, not just the brief attention dispensed by outlets. Anonymity, non-tracability and comsec, always, if leak you must. Before proceeding, think twice, thrice, avoid believing the glory stories. Else you're cannon fodder for information generals.

AAMOF most of what they spew is complete utter ahistorical nonsense (holocaust denial for instance) targeting desperate people who have no analysis and are looking to blame "someone".

1984! US Senate Launches Forfeiture and Crypto / Cash / Assets / Prepaid War
by grarpamp 01 Dec '18

01 Dec '18

https://www.congress.gov/bill/115th-congress/senate-bill/1241/text http://www.article78againstnydfs.com/advocacy.php This is a new bill that was introduced on the floor of the US Senate entitled, Combating Money Laundering, Terrorist Financing, and Counterfeiting Act of 2017. It basically says everything is evil.. Cash is Evil Bitcoin/Crypto is Evil Prepaid Phones are Evil Gift Cards/Vouchers/Coupons are Evil These people are certifiably insane. Among the bills sweeping provisions, the government aims to greatly extend its authority to seize your assets through Civil Asset Forfeiture. CALL YOUR CONGRESS AND SENATORS TO TELL THEM TO NOT SIGN THIS, EMAIL WORKS AS WELL, DONT HAVE TO BE IN THOSE STATES TO SEND A GOOD MESSAGE https://www.judiciary.senate.gov/about/members https://cohesionsoftware.github.io/ A two minutes phone call to the local U.S. senator's office can prevent the sort of debate that happened in Florida (and compare that with how it happened in New Hampshire) https://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/6hbis7/us_congress_going_full_198… https://www.reddit.com/r/ethtrader/comments/6hbhnp/americans_heads_up_congr… https://www.reddit.com/r/technology/comments/6hccra/senate_bill_s_1241_is_a… World government's getting scared of world's peoples, crypto, etc...

IMPORTANT Imposters and community
by kamoshin 01 Dec '18

01 Dec '18

Hey Everyone, It has come to my attention that there are people trying to impersonate me. Trying to claim Bitcoins promised to me years ago which I left to a community member for safe keeping. I do not fully recall who'm I interacted with back in the 2000's as my memory is poor. Though lately for some reason being around exactly 10 years ago I am recalling some interactions. So if what I describe reminds you of a conversation please email me. As I do not wish to risk my property getting in bad hands. I have everything I need to prove my claim. I have recalled a lot of things regarding the early days of Bitcoin which are not public knowledge. Ask me anything? I can as well if need be agree to an in person meeting if it is required to prove my claim. Though I would rather keep my anonymity unless the community really wants me to become more public. I could see myself as a more open figure like the rest of the blockchain community & developers as the times have changed since the 2000's. In 10 years Bitcoin has gotten a lot more mainstream and we are ready to move forward to the next level of implementation. I have a few ideas ;) Best, Kamoshi Natosato
