Starbucks Going Cashless: BACKLASH

Rob Moore argues that Starbucks going cashless threatens freedom and privacy because every transaction becomes traceable. Banks earn 2-9% per digital transaction versus zero from cash, which circulates 5,000-10,000 times fee-free. He urges people to support cash-accepting independent shops instead.

Starbucks going cashless, massive backlash. I've had a huge backlash on social media. My posts about Starbucks going cashless have gone viral, and I want to address some of those things and put the record straight because there's some stuff I think people are saying which isn't accurate, and quite frankly, it pisses me off. It pisses me off how a major corporation can essentially wipe out the opportunity for millions to spend money and to push us closer towards a cashless society nightmare where we will be tracked, controlled, traced, you name it. Our freedoms will be taken away. I just gotta move a couple of cars because I'm under strict orders here. So, um, I don't know if you saw on my social media the backlash that I received, but basically what happened was that, um, a load of people got pissed off with me talking about the, um, basically I pushed back on Starbucks going cashless and, and I said that was unfair for 1.1 million people who don't have bank accounts. I said that was unfair for, you know, a lot of the homeless people. And, you know, there's a lot in my city in Peterborough. I said that it was moving us closer towards a cashless society. And it made me wonder if, you know, maybe whoever owns or controls Starbucks are linked to whoever owns and controls a lot of the money in the world. And I don't think anyone should be deprived the right to spend on basic amenities. Now, some people said, oh well, don't go to Starbucks, go to a local independent, um, coffee maker. I definitely fucking agree with that. Um, you've got to vote with your feet, i.e., if you don't believe, um, in a cashless society, you've got to stop spending in places that are promoting a cashless society. Yes, my hair is thinning a bit at the top. My son keeps telling me to get a hair transplant. So let me know what you think, by the way. Do you think that it was right for me to criticise Starbucks and to push against a cashless society? Do you think that the backlash was fair of people saying— oh, here's what they said. The reason that Starbucks don't want to offer cash or receive cash is because theft. And staff safety. In fact, someone went and listed about 7 different things, the benefits for not taking cash. You know, your speed and ease of transaction. One second, sorry, busy this morning. But do you realize that if you give away cash You give away your freedom. Do you realize this? Do you realize that every single transaction can be tracked and traced? So let's say they don't want you to leave the country. They just stop your money. Simple as. Stop your money. What if they don't want to give you a passport? Stop your money. What if they don't want you to leave the house? Stop your money. What if they want to lock you down? Stop your money. They can just stop your money just like that with a cashless society. And of course then they can tax you 100% if they want, just tax you 100% of your money. And what can you do about it? Because they can just take it from your bank account. Do you know another reason Bear with me, I have to be careful reversing out here. I've clipped the mirrors loads of times. Anyone who can guess the two cars I've just moved, I'll give you a 2-ounce Tudor Beast coin. If you can guess the two cars I have just moved, I will give you a 2-ounce Tudor Beast silver coin. Okay, so do you want all your liberty and freedoms removed? Or do you want the ability to have some kind of freedom? You tell me. Because once we're in a cashless society, there is absolutely no turning back. None at all. None. None. There is nothing you can do. That is it. They have access to your money, access to your bank accounts. They can shut it all down. That means that not only people like Nigel Farage could be debunked, But debunked, debanked. You can be debanked too. At any moment, you could be debanked. You give away your cash, you give away your freedom, your liberty, your sovereignty. So is that something you really want to do? And here's the thing, it starts with Starbucks, and then what big brand and company? Bear with me, I'm trying to do two things at once here. Ah, if you can guess the two cars that I've just moved, I'll give you a 2-ounce Tudor B silver coin. I'll give you a bit of a clue. There's one. I'll give you a bit of a clue. There's another. So you should be sharing this around, by the way. Absolutely, you should be telling everyone about this. And you should be voting with your feet, which basically means stop buying coffee in Costa. Stop going to places that don't accept cash. Maybe go to places that only accept cash. What about that? Why don't you start buying from small businesses? Why don't you start, um, supporting small businesses? Because small businesses are the ones that are getting taxed. They're getting They're getting raped. They're getting taxed virtually everything that they earn. It's only the massive corporations that earn billions that are paying 4% corporation tax or no tax at all and are setting up in a remote country like Ireland. Um, actually, they're not making any of their money in Ireland, but they set up a little company in Ireland, and because they've got great lawyers, they can basically pay 4% corp tax instead of 25% corp tax. But the small business owner charges 20% VAT, so that means essentially they're getting less out of what they charge. Then they have to pay 25% corp tax, and they have to pay 45% income, then have to pay National Insurance for the employer and the employee. They have to pay business rates and all these other freaking regulations and stealth taxes. All right, all right. Remember, if you can guess both of these cars, and you've got to get the exact model number as well, not just the car, then, um, I'll give you a 2-ounce Tudor Beast coin. Just for fun. Okay, here's another thing that people don't really understand about— second— about cashless society, and that is a cash note might go around 7,000 to 10,000 times in the economy, might go around 5,000 times in the economy, And the banks make no money from the cash going around the economy. So if they get rid of cash, now those 5,000 or 10,000 transactions go through digital, and the bank make 2% or 3% or 5% on every transaction. I know some banks that make 9% on a transaction. So imagine cash is gone, and now they're going to make millions of pounds on every equivalent note that was flowing through the economy that they can't currently make any money on because the banks don't get a share of every transaction with cash. I think this is the real freaking reason behind why they want a cashless society. And now they can, they can track and trace your phone and your every move, but they can't really stop you going anywhere or doing anything. But as soon as they can shut your bank account down and take all your money, They can literally stop you going anywhere. So, um, basically I could get a warning which says if I leave this drive or if I get in this car, then my accounts will be frozen. They can literally do this. Do you really want to allow them to do this? And this is why— so, you know, I talk a lot for people's freedoms in Andrew Tate. Russell Brand, you know, whoever gets cancelled. Nigel Farage when he was debunked. Whether I like or don't like, or whether you like or don't like these people, is not relevant. What's relevant is anything that removes our freedoms we should fight for. And it's so easy to fight for your own freedom when it's taken away from you, but if you don't fight for other people's freedoms, you will be next. So please share this video. Please support a resist against a cashless society, if people are trolling me for supporting the resistance against the cashless society, troll them back. Because I don't think they fully understand what would actually happen if we went to a cashless society. Believe you me, that is— I mean, not being able to share your opinion, not being able to control your money, these are two of the highest things that remove our freedoms. And right now, at least as an entrepreneur, you can earn money now and you can pay tax later. But as soon as they can manage your money and infiltrate it and reverse your charges and freeze and track and trace your money flow, which they can't with cash, you are completely owned and controlled. And we are in George Orwell, 1984 in 2024. And that is real shit. Real. So if you'd like to maintain your own freedom, please share this video. If you'd like to push back against the backlash that I had, um, basically accusing or criticizing Starbucks for, um, removing cash, please share this video.

I just don't want a cashless society, and I just don't think it's right for you, and I don't think it's right for the mass populace. I think it's right for the central banks and the governments and the few families that control the world because they can make a fuckload more profit.
