Another day in bad shape. I have to put off going downtown one more day. At least I am able to prepare today, by looking for an eyeglass place online, etc.
I have been trying to log in to my PayPal account, but it just won't happen. PayPal discriminates against the poor.
I do have an account, which I wasn't able to access for years. Why? Because I was on dial-up. You can't try to log in to PayPal when it says it must first text you a security code - because you are already using the phone line with your dial-up computer! PayPal discriminates against people with dial-up. And this has been going on for years - but they never dismantle this impossible hurdle.
After moving recently, I tried to log in again. I now have a phone that is independent of my online activity. BUT, I was again asked to receive a security code via text before I could access my account. The problem is that I don't have a smart phone or a cell phone. I don't want one. The cost too much for something I don't want or normally need. PayPal discriminates against people who don't have smart phones.
Some days ago, I called PayPal, and got the run-around. My case seemed to be something weird to them - something subversive from outer space. Because that's how they think of poor people. I was unable to change my address or phone information via (voice) phone to PayPal. To change that info, I was told to log into my account first. And so on.
Finally, after endless explanation, a customer service person said that she would, "refresh," my account. According to her, this would mean that my account would no longer be asking for my old phone number, etc. Rather, it would ask me for new info. Maybe send the security code to me via email. However, I would have to wait 48 hours before trying to log in again, to take advantage of this change.
It has been well over 48 hours, and PayPal is still telling me it can't allow me into my account, without first texting me a security code! To my old phone number!!! This company is brain dead when it comes to changing and accommodating poor people. Like so many companies, these days, the employees and CEOs just keep on putting their faith in the technological system they already have in place, and they close their minds and technology to alternate incoming information. They are all accessories to the crime. Of elitist close-mindedness.
Now, PayPal is not responding to my calls. I am deemed some kind of trouble maker. That's how these new age morons do business. They achieve their monopolies, and then they fortify them like castles in the sky.
As I said, I have been locked out of my PayPal account for several years. For this reason, I have never been able to set up any kind of go-fund-me account, purchased or sold on eBay, and so on. Because PayPal contributes to keeping me poor - holding me back while cellphone zombies get ahead.
Before and during my recent move, I asked my West Coast sister if she would help me log into PayPal. We could have done this if we could have called in her smartphone number as mine to PayPal. Theoretically. And then the security code would have been texted to that number. Once I finally got logged in, I could correct my actual address and phone number info online.
But that wasn't allowed, because it didn't suit my sister's manipulative agenda. For the same reason, my sister sought NOT to allow me to take a driver's test until my brother asked her to help me by using his car. She also blocked my own information and options for moving, as if she was some kind of website rejecting me because of it's own anal requirements.
It's because she's one of them. They're all cut from the same masklike cloth. They are all marching like zombies, certain and convinced of their fairness and rightness, because they keep locking out what they don't want to hear or know. When this sort of anti-human mentality conspires with true power, it becomes fascism. And I am not exaggerating from one or two small, personal examples.
We've been seeing it happening in this country, on a wide scale. Dismissing and intimidating parents because for their free speech because it does not comport to some vain, facile agenda? Banning and shadow-banning politicians for their views? Hunting down alternate views on FB? Pushing CRT, defund the police, and millions coming through the border - and then denying it all, as if it were some little delte button to push? This is all the same stuff, and it a threat to us, and to the future of our relatively peaceful planet.
Peter Thiel, head of PayPay, ran off to New Zealand several years... because he saw what was coming. He saw that the plan was to collapse this country. And probably saw the virus coming. Because NZ has become one of the safest escapes from COVID. And he probably saw what else was - is - yet to come. Because cyber sages like him knew what they were doing. They knew the consequences. They knew what would be the ultimate results of their elitist, pig-headed conspiracy. Their deep and obscene trust in the power of new technologies. They knew what they were doing, and they, and their millions of minions, are still doing it. Closing out the poor, and more and more of the marginal, clamping down on alternate views, encouraging persecution and blame, and fostering division and hate. Fascism.
That's what this is. Aggressive self-righteousness with no final rationality, only increasing suffering on the way to impossible ends. And crazy people are pushing our buttons. Psychopaths are determining our morals.
On the road to Shambala.
