If Noah Smith hasn’t heard of the “debanking political enemies” (choke point 2.0) he should have Nic Carter on econ 102

10/10 would love to see this. 

He’s definitely heard of it.

Crypto debanking was absurd. My friend made crypto-themed keychains and got his bank account closed. Keychains!

Banks and fintechs (and adjacent) like PayPal, Patreon, and others punished users for private social media posts. etc

Debanking was becoming normalized
