Good primer on Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDCs)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jlNPyeQWyQI&t=1217

This is definitely the end game for personal liberty and freedom (sorry, "freedumb"). CBDCs can:

- Track your carbon credits
- Base your mortgage interest rate on how you score on the woke scale (straight white males pay 10% interest, black nonbinaries pay 1% interest)
- Have an expiry date (it is more like a food coupon than money)
- Turn off your spending at any time if you do the wrong thing
- Track every single transaction you make

There is a turnkey totalitarian state being built around us, all the infrastructure is being put in place. It would be good to aware yourselves on this and hinder its' progress

Saw the thumbnail for this last night. Haven't watched yet.



I'm feeling worn out on twitter and YT right now.

I need a change.

Can't you just identify as a non-binary black disabled lesbian woman and profit?

There's plenty of countries you could move where they couldn't give any more phux about "the Great Reset" or digital currencies". Brb looking at Costa Rica, Colombia, Cambodia etc. The wages are so low that they will never enforce strict rules (or you simply bribe them) and most of the population is cold hard cash only in SEA countries.

What's the point of this chit? We already have credit cards. Cash is useful because it's a no technology needed means to fiscal exchange.

This. Another aspect of CBDCs will be an expiration date. You won't be able to create any tangible savings because they will go away if they aren't spent.
