Summary
Donald Trump’s potential loosening of cryptocurrency regulations as president could benefit extremist groups like neo-Nazis and terrorists who use crypto for anonymous fundraising.
Far-right groups, such as the Base, already solicit Bitcoin and Monero for training and supplies, exploiting crypto’s anonymity to evade financial scrutiny.
While Biden’s administration has cracked down on crypto over national security concerns, Trump’s pro-crypto policies and appointments could accelerate extremist financing.
Analysts warn that weak private sector oversight and a lack of regulatory enforcement enable such activities, raising concerns about future abuse of cryptocurrencies.

Nah, Nazis always want to talk about how Nazis are human.
No, there’s good reasons to recognize people like Nazis as human.
Despicable, unforgivable, utterly detestable humans. But still humans.
It’s an important distinction, because when you say to yourself “Monstrous people aren’t human” the unspoken corollary to that is “And I’m human, therefore I cannot be a monstrous person.”
Dehumanizing Nazis is how Nazis get away with being Nazis. Because when they’re cartoon monsters on TV, everyone recognizes them as Nazis. But when it’s someone’s cousin or uncle, they figure “I know that guy. Yeah, he’s got some shitty opinions, but he’s not a monster. He loves his kids. He helps out at the church bake sale. So there’s no way he could actually be a Nazi, because only monsters can be Nazis.”
It’s incredibly important to admit to ourselves that evil can live anywhere. That it can be in anyone. It would be easier to live in a world where we could draw these clean lines between monsters and humans, but reality just isn’t like that.
Nazis are human beings, and that is by far the worst and most horrifying thing about them.

Nazis sure do love to threaten violence and normalize fear.
That’s a mighty specific rifle you mentioned there. You like to collect curios there bud?
Your account is an hour old and your only comment history is defending Nazis, with a username that refers to Hunter Biden. What were your other usernames?
Seems like you know absolutely nothing about either Project 2025 or what Trump has just come right out and said he’s going to do.
Either that or you know absolutely nothing about Nazis.

Then your comment makes no sense. They aren’t seeing Nazis around every corner, they’re seeing the people you like as Nazis. That’s a big difference.
Or do you have examples of them calling someone else Nazis that you feel doesn’t deserve the label?

Again, do you have any other examples of them doing this with any other group of people? Otherwise your suggestion that they see Nazis around every corner still makes no sense.
