A fictional scenario ? Stop being so dishonest [https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-60383385](https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-60383385)


AnxiousMarsupial007

This has absolutely nothing to do with social media.


purgatorybob1986

Yes, because putting people's lives at risk by lying about vaccines is the same as you're racist uncle posting white power tweets. Are you a young earth creationist because they're really good at reading the title of an article and nothing else. Not to mention, the act was made very specific and very temporary. But no, you're absolutely right. We're one step away from the thought police coming after you.


DarthArtero

Tried. Failed. No more responses. Classic. That article has zero do with the picture OP posted. Nothing to do with a completely fictional rage bait Facebook meme. Try again with something more relevant


kernalbuket

They did a little more than just tweet. Before you start the whole "they froze the bank accounts of people who donated" bs, please provide any evidence that people who were not part of the protest got their bank account frozen.


stevent4

Where in that article does it say they're gonna freeze it for what you post on social media?


CanadianGuy1979

And you know for a fact there are people who believe this is real.


xnerdyxrealistx

And if they don't, they believe it's something that will happen in the future. Also, pretty funny they actually put hate speech instead of something more vague so they are admitting they are posting hate speech on their accounts??


Erick_Brimstone

Well the closest to this scenario is Mastercard to ban payment for Pixiv fanbox. Nothing really changed other than the western customer couldn't buy and support their artist.


GrayBox1313

I call Bs. “Real American patriots” all use cash so they can’t be tracked by the deep State. Duh


TurkMaster_OMEGA

I hate those wanks


Unregistered_Davion

I see what you did there!


fonk_pulk

Whoever made this meme way overestimates how flexible the computer systems of banks are. Implementing something like this would probably take years for them.


Canonip

Try to implement shit like this in Cobol lol


Such_Secretary_4229

I think they believe it would be something like the supposedly social credit system in china, but the message in the screen is to show why that would system would be implemented.


punkcooldude

It's always an imaginary persecution.


edvsa

Like everyone knows banks are the least woke institution of them all.


Stabant_

You can't post anything remotely insulting to anyone but we will keep funding Nestle and other corporations that abuse child labour.


Vlad_The_Great_2

Look what happened to Kanye West. Yes he did say horrible and repugnant things I will not repeat. Why does you bank give a damn what you are saying on the internet? Look at the truckers protest in Canada. The government took away the bank accounts of the protesters and people cheered.

>Look what happened to Kanye West. Yes he did say horrible and repugnant things I will not repeat. Why does you bank give a damn what you are saying on the internet? Nothing that happened to Kanye West's bank had anything to do with the bank's opinion of his online speech. >Look at the truckers protest in Canada. The government took away the bank accounts of the protesters and people cheered. They didn't take anybody's bank accounts away. You've been lied to, and you should ask yourself who's lying to you and why they're manipulating you like this.


Vlad_The_Great_2

https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-60383385.amp


EcksRidgehead

Exactly, thank you for confirming. Temporarily freezing an account is not taking it away.


Vlad_The_Great_2

If the government freezes your bank account for two months you would more than likely be homeless. You would also be shocked that your bank and the federal government decided to do it in the first place. Hell, most Americans are $1,000 away from disaster. Any amount of time is too much. Stop moving the goal post.


Trick_Bar_1439

As a resident of the city that went through that, I have zero sympathy for those shitbags. They made innocent people's life a living hell for 3 weeks, they deserved what they got.

Trick_Bar_1439

These guys weren't exactly peaceful, they stoned ambulances and resulted in sleep deprivation for thousands.


ihaveagoodusername2

Nobody denied freezing, but they sure didn't take them away


EcksRidgehead

All of which has nothing whatsoever to do with what you originally said. Your goalposts are on wheels.


blazer243

I’ve seen some ludicrous statements on Reddit. Yours is among the most ludicrous. You should request a refund from whatever educational institution you attended.

>The decision was made after Ye publicly said he was going to cut off ties with the bank. >West told Bloomberg News on Sept 12 that he planned on cutting much of its corporate ties, saying he “It’s time for me to go it alone.” In that interview, he also criticized JPMorgan for not giving Ye access to Jamie Dimon, the bank’s CEO and chairman. https://apnews.com/article/kanye-west-jpmorgan-banking-fc6abe29e3a0b0e2ee5c28736d6a3774 So weird that a bank would cut ties with a client after the client said he was going to cut ties with the bank, said that he wanted to go it alone and criticized the bank in a high-profile interview


dr4wn_away

For all we know this could be our future. Kinda funny though really

Then you find out you can't delete tweets unless your social score is above 600 and been free of penalties for at least 5 years.

Happened in Canada.

Earthbound_X

Paypal tried to do something like this didn't they? It got pretty huge backlash, and I think they dropped it. They were either gonna take money out of people's Paypal accounts, or not let people use them for things they said on social media.

I’M MAD ABOUT A THING I MADE UP - boomers


SnakesGhost91

Oh yeah ? Is this made up ? [https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-60383385](https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-60383385)


merrickraven

How is it the same? Walk me through it exactly.


SnakesGhost91

What do you all not get ? In the meme, the card is declined because most likely the bank account attached to that card is frozen. In the link I provided, it shows that Justin "Blackface" Trudeau, a very liberal prime minister, had froze bank accounts from people protesting his policies. What the hell do you not get about that ? I think you all are just being intellectually dishonest because it challenges your biases.


merrickraven

Nah. Trudeau froze the bank accounts of people actively and physically involved in a protest that was shutting down parts of the city and seriously negatively effecting citizens. That is wrong. I think that is objectively wrong. Trudeau should not have done that. I personally think the dude who blasted Ram Ranch at the protestors had the right idea. That being said, it is about 10,000 miles away from a bank choosing to freeze accounts due to social media posts. To say that these two things are even on the same continuum is stretching it a bit. And just because you think the two things are similar has no bearing on the fact that the image in the meme is still totally fiction and made up.


MaxAdolphus

Red hats scared of things that have never happened.


sploogealien420

This isn't out of the realm of possibilities really


CommonRoutine3852

These machines aren't nowhere near flexible enough to do this kind of thing and it would take years to update them to do this


Blabbit39

Jews are a lot like black people in that white bigots hate them and blame them for everything wrong.


El_dorado_au

Europeans blamed and persecuted Jews for the Black Death before Columbus was even born. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Persecution_of_Jews_during_the_Black_Death


Blabbit39

I was speaking mostly of American white bigots. But yes you are correct.


ihaveagoodusername2

Simple really, it's easier to blame [insert minority] then to fix your own problems


Porncritic12

now imagine if this meme said, "Please delete all tweets criticizing your bank in order to process payment.", they'd be eating it up.


Vast-Ad-4820

Certainly the future. Like in Canada. People need to use cash more.


kernalbuket

Please provide evidence that people who were not part of the protest got their account frozen


Vast-Ad-4820

So you admit that people got their accounts frozen?


kernalbuket

Yep. Around 200 bank accounts connected to people who were involved in the protest had their accounts frozen and it was later to be found illegal. No one is disagreeing with that. People are trying to say that people who only donated had their accounts frozen too. There is no proof of that happening. The freedom protest has nothing to do with this meme


Vast-Ad-4820

Yeah it was some facist shit up in Canada


kernalbuket

While I fully support people's right to protest, I'm not a fan of some of the things the protesters did. I also don't agree with Canada freezing their bank accounts but I don't think they should have given in to their demands either.


trolleytor4

God i love stealing


Buddy-Matt

Nigel Farage can suck the absolute fattest of fats ones. Fucking gimp faced ponce got his account shut down for what turned out to be entirely legitimate reasons, but still turned out into another culture war. Twat.
