You can say you 'will not comply'. But are you truly ready to think and act as a criminal?

No.
I am not a criminal and will not act as such.
Not about whether you are a criminal, but when non-crimes are criminalized, what ya gonna do? Comply? Show your face and use your real name then ๐คทโโ๏ธ
It was a crime at one time to not turn in gold. Are you saying you would have submitted, or would you have thought and acted as a criminal?
I'm going to keep doing what I do. Duh.
Pfft. No. I have a right to reveal as little or as much as I wish. Don't play that stupid "if you have nothing to hide" game with me. I don't have time for that purile nonsense. ๐
It's not criminal to want to keep what I rightfully required.
The criminals are the confiscators.
So no, that's jot criminal thinking.
Ok you clearly miss what I am saying. Good luck being thick headed
Clearly you are too short sighted to understand what Im getting at. Good luck
Since you are playing dumb. Let me spell it out for you. If (when) self custody is made a felony. What you gonna do? Comply or think like a criminal? When running a node is considered an unlicensed money transmitter, comply or think like a criminal? You opinion of crime is irrelevant. What the state says is a crime matters. You gonna purposely stand in front of a gun? Doubt it. Like I said, easy to act gangsta online. But what ya gonna do when reality kicks in your door?
We all commit felons everyday. I will add self-custody to the list if it comes to it.
I will focus on privacy and avoid KYC.
I will lie facedown with my hands behind my back when instructed at gunpoint.
I dont agree with the conclusion, but at least you clearly get what Im saying, and are being real about it. You gotta do what ya gotta. ๐ซก๐ดโโ ๏ธ
When that which is right and good and actual free voluntary action is a crime I must be a criminal in order to be ethical - carefully lest I be thrown in a cage or worse.
As I said, its easy to say online, but will you when pressure is applied? I dont know you so I am not making a judgement, but trust me, the (in)justice system dont play. I want you to not, but I want you to understand the true ramifications. It aint pretty. I want all to understand. I aint hating, Im trying to help, regardless of how idiotic I may come across
I'll get charged but I don't want to get shot.
Not today fed boi
It works rather well for me most cases. ๐คทโโ
Nope.
I'm not.
I get it. I disagree with the entire premise.
You're mistaken:
I don't play dumb. I *am* dumb.
I'm going to keep doing what I'm doing. Even at gunpoint. That's the difference: I'm not a gangster. I'm a principled idiot. I have many ideas I will die for. But, not without a fight.
Of they kick in my door, I will die in a gunfight, or, they will, then they will send more. But I will do my best to not go quietly into the night. You may think that's BS. That's totally fine. But it is what I am preparing and have prepared for.
That's the difference. I'm not going to lie, cheat, or steal from others just to survive. I'm not going to do "criminal" things to survive. I couldn't care less what da gubment says is a crime. They have had too much say in that, anyway. So...
No thank you.
I'd rather not go through the hassle of the sham court system. And, complying is no guarantee that you'll not be shot. Anyone pointing a gun at me or mine in order to take them away is an enemy that deserves death. Plain and simple.
I think you got it the other way around. Your not getting what he's saying.
Let me rephrase, I'd rather not get shot in front of my kids.
I'd rather they see me standing up for what I believe instead of allowing a few men with guns dictate what is right and proper, even if it means I die.
Death isn't the worst thing that can happen.
Well, this sounds like you are agreeing with me. So I dont see what you arguing about

The categorization that I need to think like a criminal. I won't do that. Even if it means dying in front of my loved ones.
Hey, don't doxx me like that. ๐คฃ๐คฃ๐คฃ
Ok, you clearly dont get my point because you literally agreed with it.
If you are willing to do something that is made into a crime, as you said you would be willing to do, and you dont act accordingly, you are just fucking stupid.
You are correct. We are not understanding each other.
No, I understand you and you are agreeing with I've said. But you are also being thickheaded for reason at all.
That's the disconnect.
Criminals tend to not want to get caught because they are doing something wrong, and usually know it.
I do not want to "get caught" because I am NOT doing something wrong. Therefore, it is NOT categorically the same.
There is that which is true in principle then there are actual actions which will not be communicated in relatively insecure channels with a less than fully separated from "government self" identity.
