There isn't anything accurate about their model. At least the offical narrative.

You do have power...
you just need to take it.
It's not individual, but collective.
not socialist, but as a unit to fight a unit.
your opposition is a collective, that's why we call it "them or they".
they get together and discuss us, but we don't get together, we complain and plan our battle plans as individuals and individuals will never defeat a focused clooective army.

The most important right that a human being has is not freedom of speech...it's the right to say "no" to your government and leaders.
When the individual wakes up to that fact, he becomes the most dangerous person in that country, because if that mindset infects others, it means the regime is weakening.
The word "no" is a weapon of mass destruction for those that seek compliance.

Just look around, there is nothing really being said here. Just bitcoin cheerleaders. I'm a bitcoiner, but educating, innovation and noncompliance to the status quo should be a main theme.

People play right into the hands of the politicians every cycle.
Why is who your supporting a private matter?
Why don't #democrats and #Republicans themselves, make time to discuss the issues, because they affect us all.
They ban political speech at work and most people don't discuss anything in public settings.
Family members don't speak to each other about politics, so how do "we the people" accomplish anything?
How do we keep them in check?
How do we know if they are playing both sides against the middle?
We can't, because they have made #voting a private matter.
They control the narratives on both sides.
You believe in yoir side and only support one side, but don't realize, both sides are controlled.
We must start to have open discussions, the people these elections hurt are you and I.
If a #politician doesn't get elected, they just go into the corporate world, none of them care about you.

It would have to start with a mental consensus to push for a common goal.
My statement is first dealing with the fact that to me platforms like nostr should be mostly populated by doers that are having open discussions about change, that can't be had on other censored platforms. Right now it seems like it is being used by the same crowd that populated those sites.
What's the point of free speech if you aren't saying anything worth censoring.
We can't mobilize without planning and without knowing who is who. An army must be trained and focused, I may have ideas, you may have ideas, but who is listening, who is ready to act.
I dont think one post is enough to communicate entire ideas, as we should build upon ideas and grow from there.

If we were simply dealing with clowns, there wouldn't be a threat...as silly as their sentiments may be, this becoming very serious and will soon be at your front door.
This platform should be used to mobilize the knowledgeable and to inform those that are asleep. The time for utilizing free speech for criticism is over, soon you will only be allowed to sing only their songs, and any missed lyric will have consequences.

2024-09-15 13:51:45

Simply stating diversity is our strength is meaningless.
One of the reasons many have moved to #nostr is because they are choosing not to continue to dwell amongst a diverse group of know nothings any longer...

The ads on platforms like YouTube show us that many people have become the system. Scamming for money, totally obsessed with business etc. You have become assimilated and therefore won't seek to correct a system you are directly benefitting from.
They have incentivized us to be self centered, seeking capital, I'm not against capitalism entirely, but this form of it turns everyone into profit cannibals.

2024-09-13 17:28:00

I see alot of complaints about some politicians and their corporate friends, instead of other politicians that are for the little guy. No politician is for the little guy, because there is no incentive for the politician from them. They give those people lip service to get elected and then work with corporate interests.
The incentives in this system favor corporate interests. If you have a llc or some sort of small business, your part of the corporate interests that have advantages. You can use so called corporate loopholes, writeoffs etc.
Everyone is taught to be a debt slave and don't understand that fact. Your taught to dislike corporations l, but don't understand you can have the same advantages for little to no money.
Stop being a victim and understand the game, because little guy status is a slave mentality that will always keep you in W2 land and dependent on hourly wages and salaries that keep you in servitude.

We live in an evil place, and unfortunately most people are too brainwashed and programmed into automatons to see what's going on. Have to noticed basic conversation about almost any topic is futile. Look how people can't wait to vote, have so much hope for the economy and are easily distressed about wars without recognizing its all done by the same people you believe in, whose products you buy and whom educate your children. If you have any awareness or knowledge it just falls on deaf ears...

2024-09-12 22:15:54

If nostr is treated like other social media platforms, where everyone is posting cat videos and speaking into an echo chamber, then what is the point?
I see very little engagement and discussion about real topics, and many people seem aggravated by those that challenge some of their assertions.

Atheist believe there is no God, they just take an opposite approach. To take a different approach, how can you prove to a shitcoiner that bitcoin will prevail at the end and prove them wrong? You can't, you assert its better and they assert ethereum or cardano is better, but you can't prove it. That's why we debate and use facts to prove our positions.
Atheist assert their is no God, believers assert there is, how can you have a position on something without an explanation of your position. Atheist don't know as a fact that there is no God, they can't prove it, so it is a belief that they are right, but can't prove it. But, the evidence that there is, far out weighs the otherwise. Start by showing me where in the world something created itself.
I don't know what world you live in, but most of the time, many are made to prove innocence, while an accusation alone gets them arrested or detained.
But your example isn't that valid anyway, atheists are rebels against the idea of God because they can't see it, but accept many other ideas they can see such as scientific theories.

As a bitcoiner like yourself, we have faith and belief in bitcoin, but there is no truth that it will be the future. There is no current evidence that it will be what is promised. So all have hope for its success.
To be pro-truth or a truth seeker is a life journey. It simply means to have a deep seated desire to know, to understand and reflect on what is accurate. I have a feeling you feel the same way...
Furthermore, being an atheist is a belief system, you "believe" there is no God, but you also don't have proof...
But nothing in this world created itself, and it also sounds like you believe in science which is built upon assumptions and theories that mostly have not proven to be truth, but still you believe in them.
So I guess we are in the same boat...

Bro, i hope my original assertion was not taken as a knock on you or your statement, but a general point of people I see here on this platform cheerleading BTC, basically in worship mode. I agree with most of what you said here, but BTC is not by definition Fiat. It is representative, but Fiat means by decree. An entity "above" you like a king or government tells you "this is money" and you can't push back. Currently, BTC is a choice that does represent money/currency whatever you want to call it, but it's not mandated from top down. Many of the other concerns will arise as with other previous currencies, but it is an attempt to remove trust in authority to referee outcomes. It is an attempt at a trustless or less trust system, but I get your gist

If you believe free speech is a human right, we need all hands on deck and we need a all in monolithic front, because the powers that be don't respect human rights, and we need to understand, asking them to acknowledge them is futile.
Free speech needs to be enforced by the world of the "have nots", cheerleading and likes won't move the needle.

This video is essentially the whole education system. What the research actually says and means is not taught to the students on every level, elementary to university and beyond. Everything taught benefits the system and keeps the populace largely ignorant. The genius, if you want to call it such, is that they also program everyone to adhere to authority or academia/experts that are controlled by the system, but guised under disciplines like science, where everyone believes the scientific method is being used, but really being subversive to it. Think the last 4 yrs, many knew how these processes worked, but since they weren't authorized by the system, they were labeled misinformation.
