Censorship begins... This is the future of technocracy with blockchain technology. THIS is why we must oppose this at every turn. This is only the tip of the iceberg. Black people are not going to be able to participate in future tech economies for this very reason. Is it possible to use other methods (i.e Patreon, Venmo, Ko-fi, or other non-American platforms anti-NWO currently platforms)?

Yep. We need to stay one step ahead of them. We need to pay attention to what is going on in the world and come up with solutions to ensure it will not negatively affect us.

As a small business owner, what I use to make transactions across region is crypto currency as there are little or no restrictions and you wouldn't get banned from using a verified crypto account if you are operating a clean business without complaint of numerous fraudulent activities from other users.

I am scared to use crypto. I am still not confident in using it yet.

There aren't many options. I mean the only other one I can think of is Stripe and it has its flaws. We need a few more PayPal clones. If they want to get all political and start rejecting people or straight-up banning people from their business, there needs to be alternatives OR there needs to be laws in place that allow us to sue them. This is straight discrimination.

I agree we need another version of Paypal. These powerful companies know they have powerful and are not afraid of wielding such power!

    That is the problem. If they have all the power, then it really sways into them having control over our lives and if they don't like us for any reason, they can simply deny us. How is that fair? I don't care what social or political views someone has, if they are not actively breaking the law then places like PayPal should not be able to ban or reject someone for using their business!

    The goal is 100% control. And they will get what they want if we do not have our own stuff and back up the uncontrolled people who have built a legitimate platform.

    I agree but they won't get us all. I'm not going into their world. I'm opting out as much as I can.

    I guess there are not many people who share this same mindset, most of my clients and Customers are very comfortable with using crypto as the primary mode of performing various transactions with me, you can just look for another alternative that best work for you or your customers.

    Same here. It is a fad and is not backed by anything. I would look at it as an investment vehicle not as a way of saving.

    This is the kind of stuff Black businesses have to deal with. We ship 95% of our orders same day, are a registered LLC, we have an EIN, never had a claim, never done any international orders…we are doing business above boards and they banned us.

    View attachment 2853

    Just want to say that this is an inconvenience but it doesn’t slow anything down. But think about if this was a Black business sole source of income? Holding it for 6 months would put them out of business.
