The Q3 2023 Twitter Migration report is out: https://www.deweysquare.com/digital/twitter-migration-report/

It shows Nostr is holding steady after Threads tsunami. We’ve got users, interest, and development but we’re stuck in a bitcoin / crypto echo chamber. The problem isn’t the tech directly so much as culture. How can we cultivate millions of communities with their own values and norms. Sure they can use lightning for payments, but mostly people won’t be here because they believe in nostr or bitcoin. In fact for both to succeed we need folks who don’t care about the underlying tech at all.

I subscribe to a lot of press sites (bots) that I found on nostr band. They stimulate discussion on topics other than Bitcoin and nostr because they report news on a variety of topics.

Do you understand? Your accusation is irrelevant as to whether the contents of the article are true. What is your evidence that the Epoch Times is a CIA cutout? Sources?

‭‭Isaiah‬ ‭5:20‭-‬21‬ ‭ESV‬‬

[20] Woe to those who call evil good and good evil, who put darkness for light and light for darkness, who put bitter for sweet and sweet for bitter! [21] Woe to those who are wise in their own eyes, and shrewd in their own sight!

Don't B.S. me. You're denying the obvious. The glorifying of witches, demons, and the macbre which is the reality of the celebration of Halloween in the United States, along with it's association with such things as slasher movies, communicates absolutely nothing about virtuous deeds of saints. I'm not surprised by the existence of Roman Catholic propaganda seeking to justify it. The history of Roman Catholicism has included syncretism from the beginning. Statues of Roman idols were converted to idols of Mary and Joseph and various Apostles and Martyrs. It doesn't surprise me that Irish Catholics would practice syncretism with the pagan practices that previously existed in Ireland.

Now you're changing the subject. Your first post was about Halloween which has pagan origins.

Halloween’s origins date back to the ancient Celtic festival of Samhain (pronounced sow-in). The Celts, who lived 2,000 years ago, mostly in the area that is now Ireland, the United Kingdom and northern France, celebrated their new year on November 1.

This day marked the end of summer and the harvest and the beginning of the dark, cold winter, a time of year that was often associated with human death. Celts believed that on the night before the new year, the boundary between the worlds of the living and the dead became blurred. On the night of October 31 they celebrated Samhain, when it was believed that the ghosts of the dead returned to earth.

There's no moral equivalency. Israel was attacked by barbaric terrorists who intentionally butchered civilians.
