I read a paper a few weeks ago that highlighted some sort decades long plan to brainwash the population of the US. The first phase was to last three generations of schooling, and the design was to break people into subservient humans void of free thought. The intention was to make the “authority” the only place to turn for any sort of lead.
I’m not someone who believes in many conspiracy theories, but the way it was laid out… it’s frighteningly possible.
A solid 90% of our world believes only what’s seen on television media. No one reads. No one explores. No one wants to challenge anything, and if they do… they’re politicized immediately. The idea of “free speech” across the world is rapidly disappearing. Cancel culture is the way of life now, and it’s easily the most important thing for us to crush.
Opinions should be free; you don’t need to agree with them or enjoy them or even believe in them… but they should never be censored.
We are losing what it means to be human.
This is somehow missed by such a huge portion of the population. I have only recently realized that most of my friends, my family, and my working partners are blind. They are literal sheep and happy to be so.
It gives me so much anxiety.
Wow. I love Nostr. This is an awesome start.
This is, in fact, a real concern of mine. There is a small group of us in London who meet and talk about exactly this.
I don’t understand how anyone couldn’t see this as a real threat to BTC
Huh. How does this even work? We can create our own vanity npub? Anything I can read?
I wear sunglasses on cloudy, overcast days in London because the natural light is too bright.
Hahaha. I have to stop sitting in front of these screens for 16 hours a day.
Agh, thank God for my OCD. Same pair for 2 years now. I’d short circuit if I didn’t feel them in my coat.
I couldn’t deal with it. There is just no way.
Hahahahha
It’s tough to grow on here.
Why does every single mobile app request my pronouns as if I give a fuck? Let me find a film to watch for the love of Ether.
My MtGox payout, which should be here in the coming weeks, will get swapped into Eth almost immediately. 🖖🏼
Ryan Carson is something else, man. Hahah
I get an unbelievable amount of hate for trying to solve actual pain points in our little corner of the world because most of my development is done on Ethereum.
Those that know me, know I've been working with the UN to contribute to an identity protocol that would bring a digital identity document to those in countries where it's tough to get one. They know I've worked with and supported the ⚡️ network as an instant P2P payment solution for those in countries where it's a necessity.
The point is... I work my fucking ass off to build tools or contribute to the development/design that drives our whole movement one step closer to being a reality. 8 fucking years. I've given 8 years of my life to this. I've never "cashed" out or built nonsense for financial gain.
I build for freedom, privacy, and some semblance of control over our fucking lives. That's not any reason to hate me, send threats to me, or tell me that I'm wasting my life. Please.
Stop.
Someone tried to break into my flat last night
You can do it, mate. Haha
This is beautiful
