Post-Coup Binance is delisting Tornado Cash


Cringetubers had a field day recently. I had no idea so many of these bottom feeding leeches sucking on those blood soaked adrev Dollars held such a grudge against CZ. I guess that's just one of many positive things that comes from not watching their pitiful little videos. I'm sorry, I know I'm coming off a bit grudgy myself but seriously, is there anyone lower than these degens who pretend they don't notice Youtube continuously imposing these borderline fascist restrictions and banned countless creators for voicing their peaceful opinions?

I'm not saying they should write angry letters to Youtube, they can't even because the platform deems itself too worthy to directly speak to these peasants and only offers them algorithmic hocus-pocus appeals and bot communication. I'm not even saying they should show solidarity with their fellow creators and go on strike or anything. What I'm saying is that if you did not even raise your voice when Youtube abruptly deleted its most viewed news channel, you're not the upstanding transparency hero you might think you are.

That's what the bottom line is you know. In the CZ case, they all seem to be labeling him "dishonest" or "not transparent" or even "the bad guy". I even heard one mans enjoying CZ's resignation and applauding the DOJ and FCC as if they were the good guys in all this, and I feel the need to remind you that this was a so called crypto enthusiast. So....exactly what are you in crypto for then? Your hatred for "the banks"? Who you think keeps bailing those things out about ten times a year? So yeah they are all over the place sharing their pointless little opinions, vague non-evidence and sure let's unlike them at least be honest and say CZ had a lot of wrongdoing as well. He was not the hero we needed, more like the mysterious villain who's enemy was our enemy and we therefore joined forces.

But now within one week of CZ's resignation and takeover by this new guy Binance is suddenly delisting Tornado Cash which to date is still one of the most independent and still solid working protocols out there. Ohh and Binance also delisted like three other coins in a cleverly orchestrated ploy to make it less obvious. About as clever as that 15 year old buying a nudie magazine and trying to confuse the situation by also buying gum and a can of soda. I mean, I know CEXes have these delisting announcements all the time but come on, who can't see this? In the same week of CZ's resignation we get the announcement Binance is delisting TORN after years of threats from a bunch of dirty old people in Washington?

You know what, why am I even talking about Youtube bros who are all basically just one and the same? Youtube suspended so many large accounts with different views, the remaining large creators are basically mainstream and all say the same. As if they are one giant online human centipede just sucking on each others' 💩 and regurgitating it all back to their viewers. My grievance should be with developers in the crypto community. Crypto developers who suddenly became anti-war activists when Russia's war in Ukraine started, and now suddenly couldn't care less about wars because it's happening to "a bunch of brown people" somewhere near Africa. But surely they will stand up for Tornado Cash and the people's privacy will they not?

Eth mans Vitalik had a lot to say about the Ukraine war and even recommenced you to follow his dad who gave consistent war updates. Which he did back then, in 2022 he posted almost daily about Ukraine related issues and shared his utter revolt for the effects of war.

What has papa Buterin been posting about the Gaza war where +4000 children were massacred in less than one month? I can't even describe it, just see for yourself:

It's like he gave up caring about wars and started caring about shrooms. I'm not nitpicking btw, this is literally his latest timeline. Vitalik himself did at one point have something to say about Tornado Cash and even revealed he himself used it to make anonymous untraceable donations. But don't expect him to be your hero either. He's IMO more like another villain we sort of have to be allied to.

Here's Polkadot's founder during the Ukraine war:

Here he is condemning the attacks against Tornado Cash:

You see where I'm going with this? We're in a lot of trouble! Satoshi went underground and we are left settling for Shitoshi. A bunch of TV mainstream influenced yuppies who each claim their little coin will "revolutionize the world". Gawd I just had a Network (1976) flashback. Who could ever forget that vivid scene? Back then people though it was just cynical, today we realize it was a prediction.

Things are almost never as they seem. If you sincerely think that world powers would spend their money and resources in order to just "help" citizens from foreign nations, you might want to ask yourself why they've been neglecting and out right murdering their own citizens for decades. What are their true motives for wanting to fund foreign (terror) groups, start global confrontations and wars? I'll let you in on a little secret; It has NOTHING to do with "human rights" nor "democracy".
