Cryptocurrency: Is Political, Requires Prepared Mind to Win the Crypto Wars

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VTR-kfr0PUc https://www.theblockcrypto.com/linked/133586/russia-set-to-recognize-crypto… https://medium.com/coinmonks/the-modern-financial-system-is-a-debt-based-py… https://www.themoscowtimes.com/2021/02/11/russian-opposition-finds-refuge-i… " With Russia's ongoing invasion of Ukraine, the U.S and EU are imposing financial sanctions on Russia and will essentially attempt to exclude them from the international economy. I think Russia's response to this is pretty obvious and telegraphed, they are going to embrace Bitcoin so that their oligarchs and members of government can continue to transact internationally. Hopefully their citizens are also allowed to use it without too much regulation, but not holding my breath. We've already seen the draft bill of this, and now more than ever they have a justification to accelerate this. I don't know whether it happens in the next three weeks or next six month, but it appears to me that the course is set. Putin has been yearning to invade Ukraine ever since 2014, but the financial sanctions that would ensue were probably enough of a deterrent. Up until now. Putin now has an alternative, and he seems to have gained enough confidence in Bitcoin's decentralized and uncensorable attributes to use it to circumvent the international dollar system. The reason for this post is to remind people that if/when Russia does this, you might want to reconsider how open you are in public about being a Bitcoiner. If Russia adopts Bitcoin, the legacy media and politicians are going to very quickly shape and pressure public opinion into believing that Bitcoin is to blame for Russia's sudden immunity to financial sanctions. They will call it a dictator's weapon and the reason why their financial warfare tactics are no longer effective. It could even get so bad as to a minority of media claiming that Bitcoiners are colluding with the Russian state. Stuff like "The only reason why you own Bitcoin is to transact with the Russian state" or " Anyone promoting Bitcoin is promoting Russia". (Writing these easy to predict quips makes me feel physically sick). I personally have nothing but hatred and disgust for Vladimir Putin. He has shown on countless occasions that he is a psychopathic tyrant who uses force to coerce millions of people in doing things that are beneficial to him and detrimental to them. He is a net negative for humanity. However, Bitcoin is a neutral technology that is available to all. To dictators and freedom fighters alike. What each person decides to do with that tool is fully their responsibility and has nothing to do with the tool itself. For example, if it weren't for Bitcoin, there would not be any political opposition in Russia in the first place. Just as Putin can benefit by adopting Bitcoin, he can also be tremendously harmed by it. Bitcoin is apolitical. I know that everyone in this sub understands this. But the majority of people do not. And I'm afraid that the topic of Bitcoin is about to get disgustingly politicized. If this is the case (I really hope I'm wrong), then you might want to reconsider how open you are about being a Bitcoiner. The decision will be 100% yours. Some will be defiant and brave enough to take on the senseless criticism heads on. Others will prefer to self-censor to avoid the emotionally draining societal pressure. Every person will know for themselves what the best course of action depending on their unique set of circumstances. Be mindful that full scale social and political ostracization can be mentally very, very tough. All I'm saying is to that it´s probably a good idea to decide ahead of time how you are going to act in case this likely scenario does indeed play out. This way you can minimize any regret. And, I can only hope that this amazing community will continue to be a refuge for divergent and politically alienated people. Whatever you decide to do, I feel confident in saying that Bitcoiners will keep on having each other´s back. " "I buy Bitcoin because I'm able to take my money (effectively my time/life!) and buy something that is not controlled by either Putin or Biden." https://theanarchistlibrary.org/library/lewis-herber-murray-bookchin-toward… " I'm open about my Bitcoiner status to the point where the only shirts I wear now are Bitcoin shirts to McDonalds ad level expose people to it that I come across every day. If someone ever says anything about Bitcoin, I always get the conversation on how the dollar and fiat systems like it are the biggest ponzi schemes ever invented. From there, I have years worth of data material to bring up to prove that case. Those conversations always end up with people questioning the security risks of their dollar instead of the risks of Bitcoin. "

Censorship: Erasing History to Repeat Futures, FOIA, ArchiveTeam, DataHoards
by grarpamp 23 Feb '22

23 Feb '22

Erasing history, leaves you with no history, no past, no future... Slaves, Natives, subjects of War, MKULTRA victims, and more, were all broken from their history, intentionally set adrift, wrecked, abused, the lost peoples. ...no history to learn from, no backreference no index remaining to give pause when at brink of repeating future wreckage. Governments the biggest erasers, not even FOIA can resist erasing itself, its lists of what history was, soon gone to archivists and historians. The Internet... a Mosiac built of random free disk space, some of which may survive through millenia, whether copied maintained and passed down, or unearthed as artifacts. Request, file, save, and publish whatever your interests, the curious bits of history that only you have noticed... FOIAs, internet scrapes, docs, images, media, real world, surface and alternative news, archives of archives... today. Erased history can never be recovered and learned from... Hundreds of US geographic sites to be renamed to eliminate offensive words https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2022/feb/22/us-gegraphic-sites-renamed-… Hundreds of US geographic sites to be renamed to eliminate offensive words A task force will prioritize a list of replacement names and present them to the federal Board on Geographic Names later this year In November 2021, Haaland declared "squaw" a derogatory term, and a popular California ski resort changed its name to Palisades Tahoe earlier this year. Photograph: Tim Dunn/AP US officials have come up with a list of potential replacement names for hundreds of geographic sites in three dozen states that currently include an offensive word, kicking off a public comment period that will run through late April. Indigenous nations sue North Dakota over ‘sickening’ gerrymandering US Interior secretary Deb Haaland in November formally declared the term “squaw” derogatory and initiated a process to remove the word from use by the federal government and to replace other existing derogatory place names. Haaland, the first Indigenous US cabinet secretary, said in a statement Tuesday that words matter, particularly as the agency works to make the nation’s public lands and waters accessible and welcoming to people of all backgrounds. “Consideration of these replacements is a big step forward in our efforts to remove derogatory terms whose expiration dates are long overdue,” she said. “Throughout this process, broad engagement with tribes, stakeholders and the general public will help us advance our goals of equity and inclusion.” The agency is planning three virtual meetings to consult with tribes in March, and written comments will be accepted through 24 April. I was raised beside ‘Squaw Peak’ – it’s time to change America’s offensive place names Under Haaland’s order, the first action by a task force made up of officials from several federal departments was to finalize a decision to replace a full spelling of the derogatory term with “sq––” for all official related communications. It also will be up to the task force to prioritize the list of replacement names and make recommendations to the Board on Geographic Names before it meets later this year. As part of the process, the US Geological Survey came up with five candidate names for each geographic feature. The list includes more than 660 sites in New Mexico, Arizona, Nevada, California, Idaho and many other states. In the 1960s and 1970s, the Board on Geographic Names took action to eliminate the use of derogatory terms related to Black and Japanese people. Over the past two decades, the board has received 261 proposals to replace geographic features with “squaw” in the name, according to the interior department. The board also voted in 2008 to change the name of a prominent Phoenix mountain from Squaw Peak to Piestewa Peak to honor Army Spc. Lori Piestewa, the first Indigenous American woman to die in combat while serving in the US military. The Arizona Senate recently passed a memorial asking the federal government to replace the names of geographic features in the Grand Canyon region with Indigenous American names to promote an understanding of and appreciation for the “unique and significant cultures and heritage of the Grand Canyon’s tribal peoples”. Lawmakers in that state also are considering a measure that would require the Arizona board on geographic and historic names to rename anything that includes the offensive word. Unlike erased history, buried history can sometimes be recovered and learned from... Lavish Roman mosaic is biggest found in London for 50 years https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2022/feb/22/lavish-roman-mosaic-is-bigg… Archaeologists say ‘once-in-a-lifetime’ finds near London Bridge are from heyday of Londinium The site, near the Shard, is thought to have been a staging post for travellers entering or leaving Roman London on the north side of the Thames. Photograph: MOLA/Andy Chopping Harriet Sherwood Arts and culture correspondent @harrietsherwood The largest expanse of Roman mosaic found in London for more than half a century has been unearthed at a site believed to have been a venue for high-ranking officials to lounge in while being served food and drink. Dating from the late second century to the early third century, the mosaic’s flowers and geometric patterns were a thrilling, once-in-a-lifetime find, said Antonietta Lerz, of the Museum of London Archaeology (Mola). It was discovered about a month ago at a construction site near London Bridge. The mosaic, which is eight metres long, will be lifted later this year for preservation and conservation work, with the eventual hope of it being publicly displayed. The main mosaic incorporates flowers, geometric patterns and a twisted-rope design. Photograph: MOLA/Andy Chopping Its main panel features large, colourful flowers surrounded by bands incorporating a twisted-rope design, set within a red tessellated floor. There are also geometric elements and lotus flowers in the main mosaic and a smaller nearby panel. David Neal, an expert in Roman mosaic, has attributed the design of the larger panel to a team of mosaicists known as the Acanthus group, who developed a unique style. The smaller panel is a close parallel to one unearthed in Trier, Germany, suggesting that London artisans travelled abroad. The archaeologists from Mola, who have worked at the site since last June, believe the room housing the mosaic was a triclinium, containing dining couches on which people would recline to eat and drink while admiring the decorative flooring. The walls were also richly decorated. A smaller panel was found that is similar to a mosaic unearthed in Trier, Germany. Photograph: MOLA/Andy Chopping The triclinium may have been part of a Roman mansio, effectively an upmarket motel offering accommodation, dining and stabling to state officials and couriers travelling to and from Londinium across the river. The footprint of the building is still being uncovered, but it appears to have been a large complex around a central courtyard. A bone hairpin, likely to have been worn by a fashionable woman of high status. Photograph: MOLA/Andy Chopping Another large Roman building was also found at the site, which archaeologists say was likely to have been the private residence of a wealthy individual or family. Traces of lavishly painted walls, terrazzo and mosaic floors, coins and jewellery have been found. Among the items recovered are a decorated bronze brooch, a bone hairpin and a sewing needle. “These finds are associated with high-status women who were following the latest fashions and the latest hairstyles,” said Lerz. It was “the heyday of Roman London”, she added. “The buildings on this site were of very high status. The people living here were living the good life.” The site is being redeveloped as The Liberty of Southwark, a complex of offices, homes and shops that is a joint-venture by U+I and Transport for London (TfL).

She was George Soros biographer. Freeland's grandfather was a Nazi collaborator in the Ukraine. The Bank of Canada has been working on Project Jasper for 5 years.

Canada's banking industry says it will follow through with the federal government's emergency orders targeting the trucker protesters as discussions on how best to implement them continue. The government published details late Tuesday on the requirements covering a wide range of the financial industry including banks, credit unions, insurance companies, portfolio managers and investment counselling services. "Banks in Canada follow all applicable laws and regulations in carrying out their operations, in keeping with their commitment to protect the integrity of Canada's financial system," the association said. The emergency orders direct financial institutions to suspend services to both individual and business clients who they suspect are aiding the blockades. To have financial accounts unfrozen, either because someone has stopped protesting or because of mistaken identity, officials said individuals would have to reach out to their financial institutions who would then validate the information and take necessary measures. The Insurance Bureau of Canada said Tuesday that the association and its members would work with the federal government to determine how best to implement the orders.
