Money doesn’t enable speech — it filters it.
What you're building isn’t a civilization filter, it’s a wealth filter. Speech becomes a privilege, not a right. That’s not free speech — it’s pay-to-speak.
If only those with money can talk, you're not amplifying signal, you're silencing the poor. Ideas aren't more valuable because someone can afford to zap them.
Open markets are great for goods. But ideas? Ideas deserve a level playing field — not a toll booth.
I don’t want to talk to ChatGPT homie and also yes this is explicitly a type of filter.
Look I just think broke niggas should be able to speak too
Zaps are micropayments. I really don’t think it’s much to ask 5 sats for a comment or something like that. You’d be able to earn the zaps on platform from producing good shit.
Im a fan btw, and using this as an example is useful.
I paid nothing to be speaking to you, which is cool for me but probably sucks for you, because Im more likely to make you lose your time if im broke in the first place.
So I do understand your point
I don’t hate broke people lol what I’m trying to figure out is how to filter bots and cut the output of mentally ill crazy people who DDOS everyone with their constant negativity.
It’s impossible to argue with internet incels. Unfortunately, they missed the memo that zaps and positivity are good for your mental health and decided to bring their dead weight energy here.
