The only thing that’s destined to fail is the strategy of staying anonymous while the censors take away more and more of our rights.
If everyone stood up and told them to fuck off, the flight would be over today. And I can’t order anyone to do anything. I can only say, “Look, I’m going to charge, and I encourage you to back me up because we are in the right, and this is important.”
That’s not the reality we find ourselves in. With comforts of modern life you won’t have organized revolt. Even when it is organized, very few things change. See Canadian truckers. You don’t win by being loud, you take action. Vote with a brain not party lines, speak up when others have nothing to say, and don’t use their money. We have all the necessary tools at our disposal and it’s up to people to use them. Sadly, harder said than done - see bitcoiners on X.

You obviously didn’t read the post:
Short term benefits and medium-term risks aside, I’m generally against the practice, though I wouldn’t go so far as to require platforms to KYC (Know Your Customer), and obviously doxxing people, barring proof they’ve committed a crime (a real one, not a thought crime) is wrong. In other words, I think it should be legal, but discouraged.
Could disagree more. Too lazy to respond. Thanks for sharing your thoughts, however disagreeable. Maybe others agree.
I like your profile pic. Very descriptive..🫂😊
