UK PM wants to ban crypto: here's what it would cost, and why it won't work anyway
Man, I really need to move to the U.S.<p>Canada is becoming hostile to speech and the family with M-103, C-16, and Ontario Bill 89. Britain had to choose between a man who doesn't understand the nuclear deterrent and who would screw them in their biggest negotiation for decades, who would probably end up controlling the internet for antisemitic causes rather than ostensibly counter-terrorism causes; and a lady who doesn't understand any of the technical implications of the whoops-tyrannical policies she presents (in the <i>middle</i> of a campaign no less, are they all daft?). And because the UK Tories didn't do the smart thing and hang on to their popular moment for dear life to secure a supermajority, there's a hung parliament, which is only slightly better than the probably-antisemitic national socialist labour party getting a majority.<p>Prime minister doesn't even pretend to be meritocratic, denigrates his cabinet by saying that they were picked for their gender. The Social Justice Tribunals (actual name of the  institution, not hyperbolic slur) are out of control. At least the U.S. has a real constitution, which at least purports to protect freedom of speech, the right to petition, and the right of the people to keep and bear arms.<p>Britain and Canada are sinking into the earth's core under smiling faces, and DJT is somehow making America better despite being a rough buffoon. Every day is opposite day.
