I feel like we're actually at war with the dollar (or really any state-issued currency) itself here.

Because we've not been provided a way to do digital transactions with the money sanctioned by the government that isn't being gatekept by powerful corporations who can use this great leverage they hold to influence how we spend said money we're stuck. If we want to use the money we have over the Internet all we can do is pass it through one of these established players, the ones now saying "we refuse to let you pay for stuff we don't approve of."

I suppose bank transfers can be a thing to do it but banks are corporations too and they can wash their hands of any market sector they don't want to participate in either. It's not actually a solution, just a sidestep. The real problem is there isn't a way to deal in dollars/pounds/euros/etc. without handling that transaction through some entity that might have (or be subject to) an agenda.
