Why does everyone obsess over him when they are … FAR GREATER EVILS in every space he occupies.
FAR FAR GREATER.
Usefulness effectively stack-ranks threats.
It doesn’t focus on hangnails when there are gunshot wounds.

I’m reminded of just how different of a planet we’re on here in #nostr land
I’m doing some research for this week’s TPBPod (npub1fpc…4sld) weekly newsletter and trying to dig more into the Musk/Brazil/X situation. I’m hard pressed to find a mainstream news source that doesn’t [basically] side with Brazil, talking about the dangers of free speech.
The Washington post said, “Brazil, the fourth largest market for X with nearly 20 million users, has struggled to contain the rapid rise of misinformation that has fueled violence.”
Elon and X are dangerous for Brazil is what they’re saying. Something like #nostr? That would be unimaginable for them. And most other mainstream articles spend more time talking about Musk and X’s reputation than on the crackdown Brazil is trying to have against its own citizens via speech, censorship, and attempting (whatever this means) to ban VPNs.
Obviously I’m no fan of Musk or X, but the corporate media landscape is entirely hostile to any message that promotes free speech and censorship resistant communication, even if this means average citizens suffer at the hands of a totalitarian regime.
#nostr is incredibly important for this reason. It’s funny that the Washington Post’s byline is “Democracy Dies in Darkness,” yet darkness is exactly what they and most other major newspapers are trying to promote.
