That has zero to do with your cashless society conspiracy.

"The regulations define a "designated person" who can be cut off from financial services as someone who is "directly or indirectly" participating in a "public assembly that may reasonably be expected to lead to a breach of the peace," or a person engaging in "serious interference with trade" or "critical infrastructure."

You can bet that if the same thing happened in the US that the government would have those foreign donations shut down very quickly.
