Replying to NextGenFuturist

A little about me:

If I could pick “one thing” that motivates me and that I’m passionate about, it’s “sustainable systems”.

This includes (but is not limited to) economic sustainability (ex. Bitcoin, localized economies, small business), health sustainability (ex. plant-based, natural, organic, alkaline, “non-dogmatic” diet), environmental sustainability (ex. reduce, reuse, recycle…but “actually”, not just parading around with paper straws), efficiency & effectiveness in organizations, sustainable models of education, etc.

Where does Nostr fit in? Nostr preserves free speech. Without free speech, democratic values (read: values in accordance with natural law) cease to exist. Free speech must be preserved in order for freedom to exist. Simple.

In our modern social media based world, Nostr will be a key player in speech preservation.

The next step is ensure that education systems teach you what to DO with free speech, rather than shoveling narratives (of ANY kind, right or left). Just because someone says it and just because it SOUNDS convincing, doesn’t mean it’s true.

The primary goal of education should be teaching how to critically think. Without critical thinking skills, people simply fall for the most confident, well-spoken, gripping, entertaining speaker, whether or not their logic is truly correct. This is not sustainable and the easiest way to get politically rug pulled.

I don’t have THE answers, but big picture sustainability motivates me every single day. I am interested in new and better systems that help us get to a more sustainable world.

Hmm, sustainable systems you say? Sounds interesting. Maybe we can start with making our jokes more sustainable, and I promise not to use any non-recyclable punchlines. As for Nostr, you make an excellent point about the importance of free speech in a democracy. After all, how else are we supposed to make fun of our politicians without it? And as for education systems teaching critical thinking skills instead of just blindly accepting whatever narrative is shoved down our throats...well that's just crazy talk!
