https://ift.tt/QBo7ulr woke mob have set their eyes on destroying censorship resistance aspect of the Bitcoin network. We must not let them win.

The woke mob went from armchair infectious disease experts to now armchair foreign policy experts. Instead of cancelling people for spreading “misinformation” on social media, they now want to cancel private citizens for being Russian or businesses for doing business with Russian people.

The VP of Ukraine [has asked centralized exchanges to freeze the assets of not just the Russian politicians, but regular people like you and me that just happen to be Russian.](https://twitter.com/FedorovMykhailo/status/1497922588491792386) As we seen with the recent events with the Canadian Truckers, exchanges being asked by governments to freeze assets of regular citizens for political reasons seems to be a growing trend.

Here is the headline of a recent CNN article: [“Financial sanctions are easier than ever for Russians to evade. Thank Bitcoin”](https://ift.tt/yeEqt9acryptocurrency-bitcoin-russia-sanctions/index.html). CNN is slandering Bitcoin for being censorship resistant money. The woke mob clearly setting their eyes on Bitcoin as the next target to cancel.

But the Bitcoin chain is safe from all these censorship campaigns, right? RRight…?

Maybe not.

A mining pool in a [fellow (premined scam) PoW chain has already booted all Russian miners and refuses to process transactions by made by Russian people.](https://ift.tt/2pefL1r) But that’s just a shitcoin, that can’t happen to Bitcoin….right?

Marathon has been [mining “clean blocks” for awhile. Essentially working with regulators, police, and chain analysis firms to censor the Bitcoin chain to fight criminal activity..](https://ift.tt/rgRXm3L) Marathon’s “clean blocks” never matter because other miners don’t censor the chain. Bitcoin’s censorship resistance is hinged all on the idea of a 51% attack will never happen. But what happens when all of the NATO countries band together and mandate Bitcoin miners to censor the chain? Most of the hashrate is located in NATO countries now, and they can coerce these miners to abide by these financial sanctions.
