Strawman. There are good and bad use-cases of cryptocurrency and cryptography in general just like any other tool. Should we ban Diffie-Hellman as well since it is used by bad actors to send information on illegal and immoral stuff? Let’s just ban all of cryptography since it can be used by evil people to hide from authorities.


I did in fact switch to self hosting. Also, how would you define “illegal activities.”? The internet is a decentralized, world-wide platform. Which State’s jurisdiction would you like to fall under? If that State has laws that you don’t agree with?
I am against Germany’s fascist policies with Nazism. I am also against the British empire’s fascist policies on her colonies. You have to look at my comment in its context that it was under a post that tries to boil down history into “good guys vs bad guys”. I think it is a disservice to history to try to paint anything as black and white.
As a result of this type of thinking, you get the absolute failure that was de-colonization and de-Nazification, as the US and other capitalist-aligned leaders were completely fine with having Nazis in power as long as they weren’t communist. Britain and France have given hardly any acknowledgment of their wrongdoings in their colonies, let alone even speak of reparations. France still heavily extracts resources and money from her former colonies.
I am not afraid to say it, and am still not afraid to say, that the Allies and Axis were both horrible. The more we excuse the crimes of the Allies because they defeated the Axis, the more the 3rd world will continue to suffer, and the more that White supremacy will continue to spread in the world.
