Spoke to a friend of mine who is a professional comedian.

Tried to get him on Nostr and failed miserably.

As well as touring, he makes 'jokes on the street' videos which get millions of views on TikTok, Facebook etc. He probably makes a little money from the videos, but it's not his main income.

I mentioned that we need more non-bitcoin content and that his videos would be well received. Lots of people would tip him directly with Bitcoin.

"I don't have any bitcoin," he said.

"You don't need any. Download Primal, and it comes with a wallet. Start posting and getting zaps right away."

Silence.

He is not dumb. He knows social media is exploitative and algorithms are an awful game to play. He knows the pound is fucked.

But this shows how hard it is to fight the systems that have their hooks so deep into us.

What's a better way to purple-pill him?

We need more great comedy on Nostr!
