"If technological progress is an indication of future developments, then the prospects of decentralization are bright."

"Whereas democracy gives power to the majority to rule over the minority, technology tends to offer individuals power over their own lives. Democracy takes power away from individuals, technology empowers them."

Er meint:

Die Frage ist, ob der Staat überhaupt die Macht über das Geld haben solle. "Ist es nicht besser, ein privates Geld zu haben, ein freies Geld ?"

Mhm.

The state / the EU bureaucracy / the supra-state is penetrating further and further into the economy, empowering itself more and more. And the frog is quietly simmering away.

“EU wants to better prepare internal market for times of crisis

The Covid-19 pandemic has presented the EU with major challenges. With a new emergency instrument, the member states want to better prepare the EU internal market for crises and supply chain difficulties in future. To this end, they adopted the Internal Market Emergency and Resilience Act on Friday.

https://www.euractiv.com/section/economy-jobs/news/eu-equips-single-market-for-crisis-management/

As announced by the Federal Ministry of Economics, the regulation is intended to strengthen the ability to act in future crises. To this end, the Act improves transparency and the exchange of information between member states, the EU Commission and companies. Crisis protocols, stress tests and simulations should enable the EU to take coordinated action in a future crisis. Secondly, in the event of a crisis, certain uncoordinated national measures that impair the internal market are to be prohibited in future.

In order to counter supply bottlenecks, the EU Commission, with the involvement of the member states, can also request information from companies that is required to overcome the crisis and recommend the production of certain crisis-relevant and strategically important goods for the EU. The Act also provides for adjustments to the harmonized procedures for standardization, conformity assessment and market surveillance for crisis-relevant goods in order to be able to place them on the market more quickly in the event of a crisis. Finally, the EU Commission could procure necessary products and services centrally at the request of the member states or together with them.

Following today's decision by the EU Member States, the Single Market Emergency Instrument still has to be formally adopted by the European Parliament.”

great statements, exactly to the point, e.g.:

"why things keep getting worse:

... as there are too many people who acquire a vested interest in preserving the system."

They wouldn't understand xour question at all. For them that is two sides of the same coin / bitcoin.

ECHR ruling is a win.

This fcking Court is influential, Marty.

They are so dumb.

"the wall-street guys are the biggest degens, Marty."

this is going to be fun.

mempool will not clear

never

that is the point

Logan, whatch the hashrate.

Democracy arises when the organic unity of the people's will disintegrates, when society atomizes, when the popular beliefs that united the people into a single whole perish. The ideology that recognizes the supremacy and autocracy of the people's will arises when the people's will no longer exists. Democracy is the ideology of a critical, not organic epoch in the life of human societies. Democracy aims to gather the disintegrated popular will. But the human person is for it an abstract atom, equal to any other, and the task of reuniting people is a mechanical task. Democracy is only able to mechanically summarize the will of all, but the common will, the organic will of the people is not obtained from this. The organic will of the people cannot be arithmetically expressed, it is undetectable by any counting of votes. This will is found in the whole historical life of the people, in the whole stock of its culture, and above all and most of all it finds expression in the religious life of the people. Outside the organic religious soil, outside the unity of religious beliefs, there is no unified, common will of the people. When the people's will falls, the people disintegrate into atoms. And from atoms no unity, no commonality can be recreated. Only the mechanical sum of majority and minority remains. There is a struggle of parties, a struggle of social classes and groups, and an equilibrium is formed in this struggle. Democracy is the arena of struggle, the clash of interests and directions. In it everything is fragile, everything is not firm, there is no unity and stability. It is an eternal transitional state. Democracy creates a parliament, the most inorganic of formations, an organ of dictatorship of political parties. Everything is short-lived in a democratic society, everything is aspired to something beyond democracy itself. Genuine ontological life is beyond democracy. Democracy lingers too long on the formally insubstantial moment of freedom of choice. ... Democracy recognizes the people as sovereign and autocratic, but the people it does not know, there is no people in democracies. That detached human generation of a very brief passage of historical time, an exceptionally modern generation, not even all of it, but some part of it, which fancies itself the master of historical destinies, cannot be called a people.

— Nikolai Berdyaev

"Beyond Democracy"

Karsten + Beckmann

"The word " democracy" does not accur anywhere in the Declaration of Independence or in the Constitution. "

well worth reading:

Report on the right to privacy in the digital age by the Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights, published on 4 August 2022.

"23. In spite of its benefits, Governments sometimes restrict the use of encryption, for example for the protection of national security and combating crime, in particular to detect child sexual abuse material. Restrictions include bans on encrypted communications and criminalization for offering or using encryption tools or mandatory registration and licensing of encryption tools. Similarly, in some instances, encryption providers have been required to ensure that law enforcement or other government agencies have access to all communications upon request, which can effectively amount to a blanket restriction of encryption that could require, or at least encourage, the creation of some sort of back door (a built-in path to bypass encryption, allowing for covert access to data in plain text). Another form of interference with encryption is the requirement that key escrow systems be created and maintained, and all private keys needed to decrypt data be handed over to the Government or a designated third party. The imposition of traceability requirements, according to which providers need to be able to trace any message back to its supposed originator, could also require the weakening of encryption standards. Recently, various States have started imposing or considering general monitoring obligations for providers of digital communications, including those offering encrypted communications services. Such duties could effectively force those providers to abandon strong end-to-end encryption or to identify highly problematic workarounds (see paras. 27-28 below).
