Question about #humanRights— Article 20 of the #UDHR¹ states:

“① Everyone has the right to freedom of peaceful assembly and association.

② No one may be compelled to belong to an association.”

How does that apply in the context of forced banking? If a government forces you to enter the marketplace and register for a bank account, does that qualify as being compelled to belong to an association?

    That’s funny, this just popped up on my Hot feed. I thought these issues with Lemmy were all resolved.

      No issue there… I cross-posted it today to the human rights community (which I did not know about at the time I wrote the post), since my question still stands.
