Nice haiku Séimí and yes, the cage of control is very real 💯

And to be mindful of the carbon footprint we would do this using a CBDC instead of printing cash! 😁

Wrong approach. If you want government backed holidays, just create list of dates and everyone can choose compatible with his needs (Religion, etc) so jews can have their Hanukkah, christians christmas, atheist can have solstice (like i prefer) or whataver they want.

The idea of infinite money/debt is so absurd that if it were followed to the letter, we would run out of materials on earth to create fake money and, in turn, we would run out of goods and services due to the lack of materials.

This is mitigated by digital fiat money because it is not expensive to add more zeros, but it is still the same stupid idea.

One of the most surreal things you can observe on Nostr is how many anarchists support someone literally raining bombs and drones down on other people's homes, so that they can march in and claim the property because the people in the house are dead or have run for their lives.

Like, I didn't realize that territorial wars of conquest were part of that whole anti-government ideologie, but okay.

Nice

The slow roll out of the Epstein files has been based on the timing of AI to be able to produced dated, convincing looking images. That way, whatever comes out can be blamed on AI. Change my mind.

⚡️🇰🇷 NEW - South Korea introduces mandatory facial recognition scans for purchasing mobile SIM cards to reduce scams.

That requires prior phrasing.

Did you just put something in quotation marks that isn't a quote?

There's the premise contained in your opening paragraph!

Do you even read what you write?

You made up an argument that I never made and then countered it.

Sounds about right. Kinda crazy that they don't even have to declare war these days. A simple "terrorist" shall suffice and comes with less restraints than a declaration of war.

The people on here are so anti-legacy media, that they all switched over to media that errs in the opposite direction, and therefore remain poorly informed.

If you see or hear some news, put in some more effort to make sure it is confirmable, before allowing it to affect your worldview. If the news makes you happy and reassures you that _nothing has changed_ then work extra-hard to confirm it, as that is a sign that it is mere propaganda.

You see me posting news that reflects poorly on Germany and the EU, and the same for both the Republicans and the Democrats, and the same for Ukraine and Russia, as well as news that reflects well on them, because I am willing to entertain the idea that:

* Nobody is always right.

* Nobody is always wrong.

* Nobody is perfectly good.

* Nobody is perfectly evil.

* Things are constantly influx.

* The world is full of surprises, and the occasional miracle.

Life is complicated. News, also.
