Such deep and telling points...
And what if most of the population knows nothing of technology but still relies on the television to tell them what to fear?
And what if the "terrorists" attack the technology that most people rely on but do not understand and people like us are caught in the crosshairs in making decisions to "keep everyone safe" ...or, like George Bush Jr said "you are either with us, or you're with the terrorists"? Which side do we choose when confronted by temporary wealth and power...or true freedom for all and Guantanamo?

I wish I could say this is a choice we will never have to make. Something in my gut tells me otherwise....

Are you saying that bitshares has the power to shut down Guantanamo?

That said I am fascinated by how the technology supports libertarianism now more than ever and I suspect we are on the forefront of a peaceful revolution.

It feels that way now but it seems to me like that could end in an instant.

2 people get killed and it's justification for c-51?  Could you imagine if Zehaf-Bibeau had even $0.10 of bitUSD?   There's no free speech laws in Canada to protect open source software, and judging from initial poll numbers on c-51, we're a people who tend to over react in the greatest of fashions.

I feel like this community is like an idealistic hippy from the 60's.  All "fuck the man" and the like but now we are starting to grow up and have kids and houses and bills that need to be paid so we'll just work for the man for a bit till we get ahead...

You missed American Airlines and the other airline involved.

James Rickards claims that an insider(s) knew about the attack and shorted some stocks, people saw the movement and figured somebody knew something they didn't, so they jumped on the bandwagon.  I don't see the proof of false flag there.

There is very little to gain from arguing about 9/11 being a false flag, I feel.  It's like arguing religion.  Not really helping to get your point across, you're not going to change anyone's mind, and chances are you are going to alienate some people.

Personally, I'm an agnostic on 9/11.

Yes I think whitelists are a mark of the beast.  It's like we've come full circle right back to where satoshi started - though I always figured it was where we would end up.

Let us not forget that most of these really strict know your customer laws came into effect after the False Flag 9/11 attack started the "war on terror" (otherwise known as the war of terror).  So if we are talking about "terrorism" being the main reason for the necessity of "whitelists" and "blacklists", we are talking about changing privacy for all sovereigns based on a threat that is far less likely to threaten the population than, say, getting struck by lightning or dying from falling in the shower. 

I don't feel this is the right place to call 9/11 a false flag attack.

Some people may have a hard time taking you seriously after such a comment.

I am as disgusted as the next guy by the excesses of the war on terror, but I would hate for bitshares to be associated with tinfoil hats.

Not many tin foil hats here. Mostly lots of open minds. The testimony from American Architects and Engineers regarding the impossibility of the official 911 story is overwhelming.

Be that as it may, I hope you joined our forum today to discuss or learn about BitShares.

Welcome.

p.s. The creation of  BitShares is, in itself, a pretty strong political statement for the security of life, liberty and property.

I have been lurking here for ages. 

I am not looking to argue about building 7 or anything of the like.  It's just a very controversial topic that is going to alienate some people needlessly. 

Convincing me that 9/11 was a false flag isn't going to remove the requirement for kyc.
