Debate is healthy

Debate is educational

We came from other places where people could not have healthy debates.

Nostr fixes this…..

Keep debating, keep meme’ing, keep building our culture through strife.

We grow from friction and I love every minute of it. 🤙🏻

Well said!

Debate is on of the pilars of freedom and democracy.

Honesty, disclosure and transparency are requirements for debate.

It’s amazing how a free speech platform has given us the exact opposite of what we were told it would. 🤙🏻💜🧡

Bingo, it's crazy how I see way less toxicity here than on any traditional social media platform. Nostr kinda reminds me of Facebook's early days, lots of cool memes, people discussing stuff and having fun, no social justice warriors deciding who lives and dies, no obscure algorithms deciding what content I should be shown or not. I sincerely hope Nostr and similar projects keep on growing.

It is amazing but does that change when the user base grows? I’m quite interested to see how any legitimate legal cases (libel/hate/etc) will be dealt with on a decentralised protocol.

I'm curious to see that too, but the fact that data is spread throughout several relays in different countries would make content very hard to remove even with judiciary action, also identifying the people posting it won't be easy thanks to the fact that nostr doesn't require any kind of identity data from users, but time will tell.

Yep, for all those reasons. Will be a popcorn moment.

Damn now that we are talking about it I also remembered the good old days when you could still create and account anywhere without having to input half a Bible of personal data, one more point for Nostr 😅

All debate is healthy, all topics have to be discussed. All ideas must be brought to light no matter how wrong or bad they might be, discussing bad ideas openly gives us a chance to prove them wrong, trying to suppress them creates echo chambers and breeds extremism
