They even changed to deposit window size to more efficiently push packages of cash from the cartels.

Banking is not broken, it is working as intended. This stuff ain't accidental. Good vid, thanks! Please keep posting here. I want to avoid X
We can fix banking by getting more people on nostr where bitcoin education is more abundant.

That's a very interesting take. It's probably not broken for the bankers, those with power and lots of wealth, but probably is for everyone else.

This may hit different on Nostr. There’s not an insignificant portion of Nostriches who would believe 1) drugs should be decriminalized, 2) banks should be criminalized, and 3) would want to hear more about how governments are criminal organizations.
banking is obviously cucked. But there is also no such thing as dirty money. This is a psyop. There are unethical individuals and entities and a whole stack of bullshit predatory rules and regulations that disempower and seek to control how human beings express themselves

I will rephrase: I suspect there is a higher ratio of people on Nostr than on social media platforms who would like to see fewer laws about what one does to themselves, as well as the enforcement of laws that disincentivize harm caused to others, and banks are likely viewed to be a consistently bad actor in the eyes of a community that reveres Bitcoin. Also, a gun is a tool, such as a bank account number. A bank, however, is an organization. Organizations are more likely to have systems and processes which reduce agency and accountability of individual employees, which make it easier for each one to partake in actions and decisions that would go against their own personal values. So it’s actually more likely for a bank to be evil than the common person.
Banks and fractional reserve banking are like drinking and driving. You can get away with it for a while... It when it goes bad, it goes really bad. Banks destroy global economies. They're bad.
The Big 5 Billionaires = 2700 Gov = 2000 Intelligence = 2000 Criminal Org = 2000 Bankers = 2000 Approx 10,700 peeps that have the greatest influence over 8 Billion.

With any centralized organization, who is running it absolutely matters. I am not interested in discussing specific organizations, but I seem to recall Caitlin Long and her own valiant efforts being treated unfairly by the current system as well. If you want to dive into the subject, I can merely point you into the direction of the many, many talks from Warren Buffett and Charlie Munger on the challenges and follies financial institutions have with remaining honest in the present system.

By the way, I fully recognize there’s nuance to all of this. Drugs can and do harm more than just the users, in addition to exposing said user to unintended consequences (ex: the fentanyl epidemic). Banks provide the best, cheapest, and oftentimes only source of capital for so many people in their communities. I do associate with bankers and do not associate with druggies.
Yo @Ian Carroll ! I've been following you since the early Tik-Tok days where you show what major corp owned what food product. Love your work man.
"Let's see how long this video stays up..." Well now that it's on nostr and because you have such a large following here, it'll probably stay up forever. 🍻
Love your content. Moved over as soon as you said decentralized social media in the last post.
Solid video, @Ian Carroll . My only quibble is with the title. Banking isn't broken, per se. Banks are thriving by doing what they always have done: 1. Facilitating criminal activity (as your video demonstrates). 2. Serving as monetary surveillance outposts for the government, suspecting their "customers" and treating them as guilty until proven innocent. 3. Creating a large amount of loans (ie, new money) based on a very small base of deposits (ie, fractional reserve banking) so that, in times of economic crisis, depositors are at risk of losing their savings, which they thought were safe in their bank's vaults... lol. 4. Generally increasing the monetary base beyond our nation's means (see "fractional reserve banking" above), thereby steadily debasing the government fiat currency that the people are forced to use... and stealing their purchasing power over time. 5. Supporting the international banking cartel, led by central banks... especially the US Federal Reserve. Cheers. View quoted note →
I remember HSBC redesigned their counter in Mexican branches so a specific suitcase can fit in.. wonder what's in the suitcase 🤔🤔🤔🤔

this why Bitcoin will fail.... because they will do anything to not lose control, they paperise BTC to the moon, and they will win... BTC will never hit more than 150k USD. never because they will stop it...
