I also love you, even if you’re just the same cat.

Whether by design or accident people automatically think in opposites. That it’s either full centralized control, or total anarchy.

But that commits the logical fallacy of the “excluded middle”. There is not only a third choice that balances these two, there are several choices that avoid the pitfalls of both.

Freedom tech will harden sociétés sensitivities and make more robust individuals not easily offended by alternative opinions and will teach them the courage to stand up to wrong doing.

I cannot exclude the possibility that I am reactionary, but I speak from the heart on this. I truly believe in individual responsibility being maximized as a preservation of freedom. We don’t control what we’re not responsible for.

That being said, I appreciate your answer and will try to remain open minded and reasonable. My biggest hope is that ceding control to someone else remains opt-in. I don’t hate people for wanting moderation or an algorithm, but I have strong convictions against it being a default placed upon others.

I 💯 agree with you, I’m a decentralist and often get classified as an anarchist, libertarian, or archo-capitalist. But at the center of my philosophy is individual autonomy and sovereignty.

I think everything from taxes to insurance should be opt-in and nothing should be mandatory.

The only laws I support are ones that protect individual sovereignty from abuse or theft like you mentioned above. Nothing else should be legislated. (and I went to law school 😬)

I truly appreciate your passion and conviction, I’ll stand with you any day!
