You want to hurt the money changer?

Use cash as much as possible... that shit really hurts these parasites.

Buy us bonds directly from the Treasury! They hate it!

my man... USD is daddy's money...he lets you use them, if you you don't piss him off.

if you are worried about USD, them being in some shiti savings account aint gonna be any less risky then having it in US treasuries.

Another tactic is ..... don't spend money on things if you don't really need to. Why keep spending just to continually spend, spend, spend.

I just have opted out overall and literally use as little as I can across the board.

A group of different bad people behind Zelle. But maybe enough to stop supporting those few South African ghouls working to role America and then the would beyond. You'll need to decide where your line is, but deleting PayPal account and uninstalling their apps is a start. Maybe you go to Zelle and use that while you research if there is something decent somewhere.

Maybe it means going back to small credit unions? paper checks? Direct bank transfers with friends/family? Not sure what best alternatives is currently. Banking in general is just not really ever going to contain good people - maybe if we allow personal banking at the post office one day - but that's a pipe dream as fascists are denying judges rulings and releasing January 6 criminals who tased a cop in the neck and admitted to it under oath.
