Technology has pushed information centralization to extremes, and now we're seeing the fallout. Our complex social fabric has hit a point where this centralization isn’t working anymore, leading to polarization—think patriarchy, racism, transphobia, and the comeback of old-school ways.

But just like they say, it's always darkest before the dawn.

#Decentralization is the only way forward. #Bitcoin and #NOSTR are its tools.

In my opinion, humans have pushed centralization to the extremes, not technology per sé. We did it because centralization leads to more control and efficiency, things that humans love. I don't see the link between technology and patriarchy or racism, those existed long before the modern technology boom.

But I agree that we cannot use the centralization-hammer for everything. Funnily, technology is what will allow us to centralise less, so we can enjoy less control by the elite at the cost of a little, actually healthy, inefficiency.

I don't see the direct connection between technology / patriarchy, and all that either. I'm a big fan of technology and believe it's always helped humanity push the boundaries of what's possible. Technology has supercharged everything and turned the world on its head. This should be a wake-up call for us to ditch old systems that used to work but are now outdated. We need to face facts: what worked in the past isn't cutting it anymore. It's time to embrace change and find new solutions that fit our tech-driven world. Technology has been a game-changer, making everything more powerful and different. Instead of clinging to outdated ideas, we should use this as an opportunity to innovate and adapt to our rapidly evolving reality.
