YouTube ^ | 10/12/22 | Neil McCoy-Ward

Posted on 10/19/2022 3:10:25 AM PDT by EBH

This video is a bit longer for most people at 25 minutes.

Neil takes a deep dive into the Paypal issue and how it is affecting users as they pull out of the Paypal system.

He also looks at how their $2500 fine announcement and retraction has affected their stock and how it looks like Paypal may be experiencing a liquidity crisis.

Neil continues to share how these political policies are affecting organizations on both the Right and the Left.

PayPal is sending out notifications to all the merchants we’ve used over the years, letting them know we’ve dumped PayPal.

Note to said merchants: We’re going to be doing a lot less online shopping now because of the inconvenience to us.

You all might want to have a word with PayPal.

And thank you for the heads up with settings, I was not aware of that. I checked those settings quite awhile back but didn’t see that capability at the time. Cool!

What have you done to fight other than post on the internet, donate to a few "conservatives", or vote?

I was a public school teacher in the inner city of Los Angeles for sixteen years, friend. That's what I did. And I taught kids classical literature, I taught parts of the Bible, I told them that there were only two genders, I showed them articles claiming that climate change would have us underwater by now, but we aren't. I gave them articles on the dangers of gun control. I advocated for military service, of which I am a veteran, and I explained why trans people do not have the "right" to serve. I FOUGHT.

How about you?

Actually that might be putting even more heat on themselves. “No one likes our services anymore”. The vendors just might choose a priority over and add different optional payment methods because of it.

As a side note, when I first speed up a video, my brain can't seem to keep pace. But after a few minutes, everything settles down.

Strange the way that works.

I notice the same thing with audiobooks.

I can speed read/listen, but I have to let my brain adapt for about 5 minutes.

What I usually do is ease into a higher speed slowly or start out fast and then go back to the starting point once my brain has adapted.

I can cover much more material that way.;-)

Ideally, Paypal is a wonderful concept. However, the price of liberty is eternal vigilance. The left is slobbering with lust over getting their fingers in yet another fulcrum area of money tranfer, both to line their pockets and move the currents of culture (tied to money) towards centralized control.

I think the key to responding to this will be to bail on those organizations which are leftist cesspools, tell them why, and support freedom loving outfits. There are a number of alt programs for everything from social media to money transfer, and new ones are popping up every day.

It may be discouraging in the beginning, as these outfits have grown spectacularly, and with good reason. They served a need, and people piled into them like commuters on a Bejing subway car. However, paypal, google, etc have gotten a bit too big for their britches and it is time to move on, let them wither and become yet another brick in the wall.

I am on the lookout for a liberty supporting, freedom advocating, free speech affirming engine for money transfer. Lots of entrepreneurial guys out there who see the need for this. Be alert and give it time.

Unless there is a complete CCP-like seizure of control over the internet at large (and then we will have other, bigger problems), we are still at a point where decentralized engines will have the advantage. These guys are cannibalizing the husks of their former success. Let them die. They will, you know.

Don’t forget the merchants who also use PayPal.

They’re involved in this, too .

Any merchants who remain silent in the face of what’s being done to their customers should be treated the same way as PayPal.

Dump them.

Same here. I'm not fit for human company without my coffee.

I should probably stay away from FR until around 11:00 AM.

“PayPal is sending out notifications to all the merchants we’ve used over the years, letting them know we’ve dumped PayPal.”

Incredible. That really feels like an overstep by Paypal. Oh you are such a bad consumer for dumping Paypal. Let’s see if merchants refuse to do business with you?

The Department of Labor-Employee Benefits Security Administration is presently working on ESG regulations for qualified retirement plans (including your 401(k)) which will allow liberals in charge of your trust funds to manage these assets accordingly.

Note to any merchants who’d do so, three words: Make. My. Day.

We’ve dumped so much already, it’s become easy.

We can easily add more to the list.

Your reply is interesting. How did you teach so much that is clearly not in the LAUSD ciricculum Serious question. After the ‘No Child Left behind’ national standards the only thing that was taught was how to take the standardized tests.

When did the transsexual process begin? I recall Oprah, who was the bell weather for the next perversion to be normalized, starting to push transsexual victimhood about 2010.

Maybe a few of these companies need to go away. The whole premise of their founding was to offer a ‘service’ for a fee that was not being provided, as a matter of convenience. Since their ‘service’ has been compromised, they have no reason to exist and we can certainly go back to the old way of doing business.

Ebay sold off Paypal a while back. It’s really no different than some other payment services and is no longer the force it was when it was eBay’s payment system.

Yeah, I think that is a dumb business move on PayPal’s part on top of the ESG. You can bet some power hungry wokie kid came up with that ideology. Are they supposed to “cancel” their customers just for PayPal?

This is vindictive... They are making sure that vendors adjust these accounts to make sure the customer can never use PayPal for sure. This is just going to upset the vendors because of the time they now have to invest to adjust every account.
