>The US military itself uses Tor. They don't want to ban it

That's not really any reassurance in the long term, if they find a better/different solution that goes out the window.

I’d be willing to bet there is US government black budget money that moved over Tornado Cash, too. The issue then becomes that Tornado Cash wasn’t originally developed by the govt and whatever further implications that has.

I hear NK uses it too, it should probably be made devastatingly illegal therefore.

Most of HN actually thinks like this unfortunately

That is the point of your parent comment: defeating their argument by their logic. To be logically consistent, the US should either ban both Tornado Cash and Tor or allow both.
