I've met some very nice literal communists, who wanted to abolish money.

I think that's about the same level of wrong as cops trying to abolish encryption — I can see what they're saying and why, but the world can't be as they want it to be.

To be fair; if we abolish money, quite a number of crimes become impractical to say the least.

I could almost imagine the collective police chiefs writing the same document except for :%s/e2e/money/g .

It would be roughly as practical in 2024, so that's a neat argument!
