How do you opt out of it?

Democrats are and have been illegally importing voters in an attempt to change the demographics of this country so they can have a soft compliant base of underclass third worlders who will continually vote them into power.

All while screeching about “democracy” the very thing they are trying to destroy.

It’s all so shockingly evil and anti American and it’s hard to accept as reality, but it is.

Hard for me to respect anyone who aligns with it.

You sound like you were probably on the wrong side during Covid.

You sound like you were probably on the wrong side during Covid.

“No event has traumatized me so much as watching nearly the whole of the professional, media, and academic class be entirely fine with the sudden imposition of totalitarian controls on association, movement, and speech provided they could luxuriate at home - believing there to be a killer virus extant - and hang out on video chats as the workers and peasants kept society running and delivered groceries to their front doors. That same group was thrilled to receive trillions in payments for having done this.

Again, nearly the whole of the top 1/3 of society was just fine with this, and certainly raised no objection. Many within this group manufactured excuses for their deeply disgusting disdain for others.

I doubt I can ever recover the respect I once had for the wealthy, the educated, the credentialed, and the successful. In the Covid period, they deployed their privileges as a weapons against modern ideals and against all the people they (secretly) regarded as their lessers.

This really happened. And it revealed everything.

In the end, they were rewarded for their disgraceful attitudes and behaviors. This reality, again, more than anything I've ever personally witnessed, has shaped my views on nearly everything and fundamentally disrupted much of what I once believed.”

There’s levels to this shit lol

I def can’t do this lol 😂

I’ve been really feeling the extreme emotions of, “WE NEED TO DO EVERYTHING POSSIBLE TO DECENTRALIZED THE WEB, DEPLOY STRONG CRYPTOGRAPHY AND WIN AGAINST THE STATIST!!1!” and the other extreme of,

“Fuck it, I just wanna hang with my family, work on projects on my property and be left the fuck alone.”

I know a balance of the two is the real answer, but sometime in just really feels like one extreme or the other.

Good question.

Anyone have any resources that dig into this one? I’m curious too nostr:note13aq7ugas63qfdty3ljy6788xku090djxwem5k2lth6pkt5relmhsg8c255

No comparison as I don’t get shit like people being murdered in my feed on Nostr. You can be traumatized on Twitter within 5 seconds of getting on it.

I’ve been off Twitter and all social media except for Nostr for a month now, and the results are hard to argue with.

I’ve started reading real books again (4 this month) and have noticed both my patience and attention increase noticeably. I also feel less angry and anxiety daily, along with being committed to my workout routine.

I found that Nostr has met my social media needs, most importantly, my own ability to self-limit with it. Nostr is a bit ‘boring’ compared to traditional social media because ITS NOT TRYING TO KILL YOU!!!

Controlling your own data isn’t nearly as important in terms of ownership, as it is about allowing that information to be used against you. All of your most intimate thoughts and feelings are data mining by massive corporations specifically to find emotional triggers for you, so they can sell you shit, or force thoughts on to you.

Fuck these people that run these companies that farm our emotions to sell us shit, and to work with corrupt government to censor our speech, sell out dissidents, and destroy our internet.

We are much, much, much more powerful than they will ever be because we don’t need force, corrosion, or permission to run these systems of social connections that they cannot destroy.

My month of social media detox has really lifted the veil from the hate industry complex that are all social media companies today. Stop prostitution your content, thoughts and powers to these shitty companies that enrich the scum of the earth, and empower illegal, unconstitutional and immoral government agencies from their dragnet surveillance.

I’ll make one last tweet explaining this and then nuking my account in the next few weeks. Then I’ll be Nostr only.

Stop building on borrowed land. It will only get worse.

You've been warned

Fuck YouTube

Dad strength is real bro.

Little kids are basically human kettlebells that demand you hoist them into the air constantly lol 😂
