Criminals are well renowned rule followers. I’m sure they will now stop hiding their identity when committing crimes. Also I’m sure they would stop using guns if we asked them.

Damn, overdue library books just escalated quickly. 🤣😅🤣

Example?

I would test them with an opportunity to do something they like doing.

“Act like their brain has literally been wiped?”, “they wake up like it’s their first day of life”

Can they walk?

Can they use a cup?

Can they ever turn on the TV by themselves?

Do they play normally?

Or are you talking about chores and “academic” things. Like sight words, and age appropriate math?

With the end that it had, I was certain there would be a second. Disappointing nothing came of it.

It shouldn't be flown by any government official. And definitely not in any government building.

Here's how I hit 1 million followers.

https://ron.stoner.com/I_Gained_1_Million_Followers_in_24_Hours/

Key takeaways:

- over half the Nostr listed relays are using some sort of spam mitigation technique(s)

- the attack was still achieveable

- socal media is easily manipulated

- follower counts and engagement are worthless

- content is the real treasure

Point of clarification, 1) would this actually filter out the user from your WoT that has the follower list above this amount, Or 2) simply remove the follow list from contributing to your WoT

I read it as 2 but 1 is spicy. 🌶️

You might be right, do you have any examples of what civil liberties are given up currently? If you have some examples I would probably question if when someone is in office that may be one thing as they would have the power at that point, but until they are swore in, I think violating a civil liberty of a running candidate flirts dangerously to giving the government tools to become authoritarian. Atleast that’s my default position.

1) The government then will imprison / fine any candidate to accept money from Non US citizens, probably doable. But every campaign contribution would have to be KYC’d. This creates a lot of overhead of tracking and compliance which means it will advantage large parties.

2) The government then will imprison or fine anyone who contributes money to a candidate. This would violate free speech and freedom to assemble, perhaps other rights. Not to mention If I’m running a campaign and you make it illegal for someone to give me money, then they just give money to my brother, or a loosely connected Nonprofit. Then my brother or this nonprofit spends their money saying really nice things about me and saying mean things about my competition. Getting my voters registered, etc. If not my brother, then my friends. Or a fan club. It’s a game of Wack-a-mole.

3) The government imprisons or fines any candidate that doesn’t participate in the sanctioned debate event. I would doubt the government could actually require participation.

4) The government gets to imprison or fine any candidate that doesn’t meet a standard of behavior during the debate. (likely enforced asymmetrically against candidates the “government” doesn’t like). Violates free speech unless your standard of behavior is not threatening violence. The abuse would be pretty authoritarian.
