Paypal has apparently changed their mind about their shift to hard fascism.
quote:

148 Caroline Downey Sat, October 8, 2022 at 5:00 PM·3 min read PayPal has backtracked on a published policy that would have fined users $2,500 for spreading “misinformation,” claiming the update had gone out “in error.” “An AUP notice recently went out in error that included incorrect information. PayPal is not fining people for misinformation and this language was never intended to be inserted in our policy. Our teams are working to correct our policy pages. We’re sorry for the confusion this has caused,”

It was all a misunderstanding.

Yahoo News

Because a fully formed and typed up legal document could definitely just be implemented by random coincidence. And as the article states, they just killed the accounts of a bunch of gay guys for calling out the tranny groomers.

Yeah, I don't buy that "it was a mistake" line for a moment.

Never used PayPal, but had an account. Joined the masses, and closed my account this morning

The only error Paypal made was misjudging the negative response.

It was a mistake that it was publicized at this point and time.

The elites that run the Democratic Party (and their respective foot soldiers - “ANTIFA” and BLM) WANT fascism, just as a means (tool) to implement communism. The elites of the Republican Party want it as well...so they can have sound bites to distract their base.

In short, you will own nothing, and be ruled via corporate policy structure which is formulated by the dictates of the elites.

I use the term communazis for a reason.

One more thing, the elites in China have become enamored with fascism. The idea of using CCP controlled (owned) corporations to control the masses appeals to them as well.

Like it or not, there seems to be a global alignment in play right now that paints a picture of a future that isn’t that nice.

Just my .02.

Is zelle an option? BOA uses zelle so I’m going to guess not.

Liberals seem to be testing the water to see what public perception will bear. Good to see public perception but them in the arse, but like a good beach front, they’ll continue to erode at freedoms, wave after wave. We need a good conservative wave to yank the wheel on this thing hard right.

I don't understand what sort of bubble these corporations live in. People don't want to be told what to think or say and will punish companies for wading into politics where they have no reason to be. It's been shown over and over.

While I think you’re right, I believe the demographics in America will only tolerate so much. What you see in the news is simply the tail of the dog. The silent majority are at a point where they’re not ready to be loud yet. But they will hit these companies where it hurts at every step. Something about men who just want to be left alone. I see a lot of complaints here about how we won’t do anything when our rights are infringed upon. These liberal corporations and politicians are getting very close to getting what is coming, from men who just want to be left alone.

My bank is offering this now too. Not sure how it works, but it is interesting how this product is all of a sudden everywhere.

"PayPal owns Venmo. Indeed, since 2002, PayPal has acquired several brands. In 2013, as PayPal bought Braintree indirectly, it also bought Venmo. Braintree acquired Venmo in 2012 for $26.2 million. Therefore, by 2013, Venmo entered into the PayPal family of brands comprising payment solutions like Braintree, Venmo, Xoom, and iZettle products."
