Man, I did it again, I just took a quick trip into Fiat Land. You know, X, LinkedIn, Facebook, or whatever those little city states are all called. It's awful. Way worse than when I left it back then. Just this impenetrable mess of slop, scams, and pointless trench fights that were doomed to fail from the start.

The people - or are they bots, you can't even tell anymore - they're so strange, so weird. Folks, forget that saying about „weird Nostr," the ones over there are totally detached from reality. Like some little acting school full of crappy performers. Everybody's faking something, everybody's trying to play their part, to act like something they're not. The "successful" ones are just the ones who stay in character the longest. Like clowns, like entertainers.

F*ck this sh*t, that's not what we built the internet for. We're not immune over here either, I see the first signs of people trying to carry that zombie virus from over there to here. But still, I'd rather keep building here for now. Though from now on, I'll be way more sensitive and call out anybody who tries to drag that crap over.

yeah, please call it out. i've been noticing i've been off legacy socials so long i don't even have a good feel for it any more. when friends or co-workers try to show me something "trending" it all just feels so low signal. maybe this is what looking back at people stuck in the matrix is like 🤷🏻‍♂️

You have to sit there and pretend to be interested... Been there

You are correct. The Internet was built by the US DoD to kill enemies.

More like, to keep tactical communication up and running as long as possible during a devastating attack. It doesn't have any killing capability itself. 🙂

No, but it was made so the universities (designing ways to kill), could share information. The requirement for resilliancy was a contingency.

every now and then, I hear people who were blewing up get exposed for inflating their assets and income. life will always humble us. 😬☺️

Yeah so true.. I remember recently someone wanted to show me something on tiktok and it is completely unrecognizable to me now. Instagram is even worse. I honestly think more and more people are leaving those platforms and it’s mostly just bots now.
