What can I say beyond the fat that the author is right.

I am increasingly convinced that ISP’s, social media companies and financial institutions should be treated like common carriers.

The banks have a vested interest in censorship. When the next financial crisis happens, the banks will want their usual bailout by the public to go unchallenged.

The WEF does not even try to come up witg credible excuses. You cannot ‘uplift’ poor people with an id! What they need is money.
The weird thing is that no one seems to be asking for an id, but every government is working toward one.

Indeed. And this is the second time your comment has disappeared today. So, at least once someone has had to approve it. It isn’t good enough.

Always happens on the comments that get downvoted. Seems obvious Unherd are suppressing stuff they don’t want, which is really disappointing considering their apparent mission statement.

It is the comments that must appear so OFFENSIVE to UnHerd management. Very ominous indeed.

Looks like the ‘woke’ have moved in to stifle debate on this interesting topic. How sad.

The Book of Revelation is an apocalyptic vision of the end of humanity, depicted in chapter 13 as a demonic world power rising up to take over all world systems, crushing all resistance from those who believe in the natural rights of freedom given by God.
This new power resides in an entity the vision calls “the Beast” which has heads and horns symbolizing world nations or powers. Today we have unregulated powers, unlike any seen before in history, corporations with the ability to control world-wide commerce and speech. The Beast controls humanity because without the mark of the Beast (a formal covenant and an ID) you cannot transact business. Never in human history has this apocalyptic vision been possible on a world-wide scale. Now it is manifesting in real time.The Beast (world-wide system) will openly defy God and promote pride in perverse relations which have become widely acceptable The warning? God will draw History to a close at the apex of the power of the Beast. The Beast will be destroyed by a divine judgment along with all those pledging obeisance to it. The pandemic and vaccine were a little trial run to determine obedience. It worked. Next time the rhetoric to conform will be stronger.Does this seem in any way familiar?

Quite, though from the description of the Mark of the Beast as something one cannot repent of accepting, and which results in torment for those who have it, I’m expecting it to include a neural-interface.

Unconvincing paranoia. What happened to Farage and others was clearly wrong, however, the response has been firm and direct with the government setting about changing the law to protect consumers. With the Nat West CEO resigning there’s a clear message that debanking people and similar behaviour will not be tolerated.

NatWest CEO resigned as a result of failing in fiduciary responsibility, defamation of character and very probably being in breach of GDPR regulations. She did not resign because of the decision to exit Farage, she resigned as a result of the cover up.

The Canadian truckers weren’t so lucky, though. The proof of concept worked. And of course Farage is well connected. I don’t share your confidence that this sort of thing won’t be weaponised against Joe Blow.

Agreed an excellent start, but the rest of the Nat West board must follow Rose into the ‘pit of eternal stench’ otherwise the whole thing is meaningless.

Also somebody needs to applaud the ‘whistleblower’ at Coutts who ‘leaked’ the 40 page Farage Dossier, that claimed he was a fascist, antisemitic, racist, misogynist, drunken, disingenuous grifter, and Brexitier, etc, etc.

Charles, hear, hear, hear, hear, unless, as you so dilicately put it, unless the whole lot go into the ‘pit of eternal stench’ this won’t he cleared up. Didn’t Jesus have the same concern with the money lenders in the temple.

Well, on reflection seems like a valid observation. Coutts CEO has resigned too now though.

The only got stopped on this occasion because Farage was smart enough and had the platform to turn the tables.
Their first impulse was to lie and obfuscate and in 99% of cases that would be sufficient

Wow Robbie, you’re a walkover, the banks are going to love you. You’ve made a very hasty retreat to the safety of the World of Grauniad. See no robust evil, hear of no evil continuing, stay silent and get back to mowing the lawn, it’s a lot less intelectually demanding.
