[Crunchified]

Proper cash is a source of freedom. It doesn't even have serial numbers. It has weight and defined properties, but they took all that away from us quite a while ago. Until recently, the paper with numbers and faces on it still served as a fairly usable facsimile, but the powers-that-be continue to take those "privileges" away from us, the undeserved underfolk. Just wait until CBDCs are thrust upon us - that'll take care of the last vestiges of freedom that cash currency, and previously real money, had given us.

They have changed the concept of money, a natural right, into a constructed privilege.
